LYKN Member Hong Updates Recovery From Appendix Surgery
LYKN member Hong Pichetchapong is recovering from emergency appendix surgery and says he needs about a month before returning to performances, though he's already resumed some work commitments.
Fans were left concerned when Hong Pichetchapong from LYKN developed acute appendicitis and required emergency surgery. On July 5, Hong and bandmate Nat Thanat attended the launch of La Roche-Posay's Effaclar Supra Molecular Oil & Pores Correct product at One Bangkok shopping center.
Hong provided an update, saying his condition has improved but he cannot dance or do heavy exercise yet and must wait approximately one month for his wound to fully heal. He thanked fans for their concern. Both members also promoted their solo singles: Hong's "Let's Go" and Nat's "Tasty."
When asked about his surgery, Hong revealed he had no warning symptoms. He woke up one morning with severe, unusual pain and decided to go to the hospital, where doctors diagnosed appendicitis and performed surgery that same night. He will need about a month before returning to performing, though he's following all medical advice carefully.
Despite being cautious, Hong decided not to cancel work commitments and felt stronger for pushing through, though he had to restrain himself from laughing during filming two days after surgery. He assured fans he knows his limits and asked them not to worry, joking that he'll have to limit appendix jokes for a while.
Both artists urged fans to listen to and share their new singles on social media.
