Stray Kids’ Felix is set to modify his stage performances during the group’s “dominATE North America” tour due to ongoing health issues related to his back.
The announcement came on May 24, just hours before the group’s opening concert in Seattle.
According to a statement released by JYP Entertainment, Felix has been undergoing treatment and rehabilitation for some time now.
Although his condition does not interfere with day-to-day activities, he has recently started experiencing pain when exerting pressure on his back. As a result, additional medical care is being administered to aid his recovery.
Following detailed consultations involving Felix, healthcare professionals, and the agency, it was decided that the North American tour would proceed as planned.
However, Felix may be required to alter certain aspects of his choreography during performances depending on his physical condition on any given day.
The changes are meant to alleviate strain on his back and ensure his long-term well-being, while still allowing him to remain present and active on stage with the rest of the group.
The statement emphasized that this compromise honors Felix’s strong desire to perform and considers the unity of all eight Stray Kids members.
JYP Entertainment reassured fans that Felix is under the supervision of professional medical staff both domestically and internationally, and that his health remains a top priority throughout the tour.
The company also expressed its appreciation for fans’ understanding and support during this time. Felix, known for his powerful dance presence and charismatic stage aura, remains committed to giving his best while taking precautions to avoid further injury.
The update has sparked a wave of well-wishes from fans around the world, many of whom took to social media to express support for Felix’s recovery and commend the agency for its transparent communication and proactive approach.
As Stray Kids embark on this major tour leg, their fans—affectionately called STAYs—are rallying behind Felix with messages of love, strength, and healing.
The adjustments, while necessary, have only further highlighted the dedication and passion Felix brings to the stage, reinforcing the bond between the idol and his admirers.
