NewJeans member Hyein will be absent from official activities related to the group's new album, "How Sweet," as confirmed by the group's agency, Ador. In a notice posted on the fan community platform Weverse, Ador stated that Hyein will not participate in promotional activities, including music shows and performances, in order to focus on rest and recovery.

The decision comes after Hyein was diagnosed with a minor fracture in her foot sustained during practice last month. Since then, she has been undergoing treatment and recuperation, with her schedule put on hold. The agency emphasized that medical professionals have advised minimizing movements that could strain the foot.

However, depending on Hyein's condition and medical advice, she may participate in activities other than performances. NewJeans recently released the music video for its song "Bubble Gum" on April 27 and is scheduled to release its debut single in Japan next month, along with a concert at the Tokyo Dome.

Meanwhile, amid NewJeans's comeback, there have been reported conflicts between entertainment company Hybe and its subsidiary Ador. NewJeans member Daniel attempted to reassure fans via the communication platform Phoning, stating, "Even though our hearts feel a bit heavy, we're all working hard and preparing for Bunnies (the group's fandom name), so there's no need to worry."
