A member of a boy band who was active in Japan passed away due to leukemia... He was 23 years old.

It has been reported that Je-hyun (real name Shim Je-hyun), a member of the boy band F.able, died while battling leukemia. He was 23 years old.

According to a report by My Daily on the 2nd, Je-hyun passed away on June 29th after battling leukemia. It has been reported that even his friends were unaware of his illness, leaving them feeling saddened.

Born in 2002, Je-hyun debuted in 2020 as a member of the five-member boy band F.able and released singles such as 'Burn it up', 'Run Run Run', and 'Cloud 9'.

F.able actively performed overseas, holding concerts and fan meetings in Japan, but in August 2023, they took a temporary hiatus and suspended their activities.

At the time, the agency stated, “The members of F.able are currently in a very tired state, and it was determined that continuing the schedule would be difficult. After much deliberation, it was decided to take a temporary break.”

Meanwhile, last year, members Junhyun, John, and Shihun made a comeback as part of the group ENPHAZE, effectively dissolving F.able. Since then, there has been no news about Je-hyun's whereabouts, and the news of his death also came later.

Upon hearing the tragic news, fans left messages of condolence such as “Rest in peace” and “Beautiful boy, we are proud of you.”
