Fans speculated that Winwin would be unable to join his NCT members for the upcoming promotions due to his busy C-Drama filming schedule. Previously, it was reported that the NCT member was cast as one of the main actors in The Shadow, which is a series set in the Republic Era of China.

NCT member Lucas was previously caught up in a string of gaslighting allegations back in August 2021. Following the reports, the NCT member took the time to apologize for his actions and has since been taking a hiatus, while staying out of the spotlight.

While fans speculated that Lucas may not be included in the group’s upcoming promotions for the time being, fans were still disappointed to see Lucas’s name out of the group’s promotional photo.
