The remaining NCT members have had to continue their schedules despite losing a member. For instance, Doyoung recently performed multiple days as part of his 2024 DOYOUNG CONCERT [ Dear Youth, ] in Japan. 

During his song “Rest,” Doyoung broke down in tears. He couldn’t stop crying, affecting his singing. So, he had to step away and return to finish the performance.

According to concert-goers, Doyoung didn’t cry just once. He also cried during the concert’s ending.

The previous day, Doyoung gave a speech that garnered attention on social media. He reassured NCTzens, telling them it’s okay if they need to take a break from being fans and that they can return anytime.

Doyoung’s past couple of concerts moved NCTzens to tears. Many are sympathetic to him, knowing he is hurting but trying to encourage his fans.

Doyoung also shared a letter via the bubble app. He apologized to fans for the late message and the tears that affected his singing. He reflected on his feelings after the recent events.

I’m really sorry for being so late, and for sending this message so late to (Y/N), who must have been worried about me. I don’t even know how many times I struggled with how to write this, writing and erasing. The reason it took me so long to figure it out was that this time, I really wanted to think about myself. I was thinking about when it would be truly okay, when I could talk with (Y/N) without any other thoughts. It seems I needed more time, and that’s why it’s so late. I’m really sorry.

I was truly thankful for yesterday’s and today’s concert. Without realizing it, I cried a lot during “Rest,” and I feel very sorry for the Czennies who came to hear me singing as I couldn’t sing properly at the time.

If anything I say is misunderstood or leads to misinterpretation, I don’t think I’d be able to see that situation without sadness. So, aside from everything else, I just want to say one thing.

As always, I will sing my heart out in my place, so please don’t worry about my singing. That’s the most unchanging promise I can make. I will sing as much as you believe in me. Thank you so much for yesterday and today.

Starting tomorrow, as always, I think we’ll cherish each other even more than before and spend time together.

Have sweet dreams and sleep well.

— Doyoung
