K-pop boy band NCT 127 member Taeil will not be able to participate at the group’s concert in November as he is still recovering from surgery after fracturing his thigh in an accident in August.
Last Aug. 15, Taeil got into an accident while riding his motorcycle going home from work and was taken to a hospital.
