Le Sserafim's Kim Chaewon to resume activities next week after neck injury absence

Kim Chaewon will be back in Le Sserafim's lineup next week. Source Music confirmed it on June 18.

The agency said Chaewon "has focused on recovery through treatment and rest" and will "participate in scheduled activities starting next week" now that her condition has improved. Neck pain sidelined her three days before last month's comeback, and medical staff recommended rest to monitor her recovery. Le Sserafim performed as a four-member group in her absence.

They still charted. Their regular 2nd album Unforgiven (Korean title: Pureflow) debuted at No. 10 on the Billboard 200. That made Le Sserafim the only 4th-generation K-pop girl group to land in the top 10 on five consecutive albums.

Chaewon's return sets up what's next: Le Sserafim opens their second world tour, 2026 Le Sserafim Tour 'Unforgiven', in Incheon on July 11–12. Whether she'll be fully cleared for the stage by then is what every FEARNOT is wondering.
