HwanHee's Instagram
One of the most popular idol survival shows on air at the moment is "Boys Planet". With its tight competition, talented contestants, beloved Star Masters, and more, this show has garnered attention from viewers all over the world. However, for fans of one particular contestant, there was some unfortunate news. UP10TION's HwanHee, who was receiving much love from fans, both old and new, had to drop out of the show because of his declining health condition.
Not only was this a shock to fans but also HwanHee's fellow contestants, who had come to respect and adore him during his time on the show. It was especially difficult for Park GunWook and Kim JiWoong, who cried the most when he left. This was because GunWook had come to rely on HwanHee, who took care of him like an older brother, and when HwanHee was having a difficult time, he went to JiWoong, who comforted him and the two also grew close as friends.
As a matter of fact, even though there aren't many interactions on screen between HwanHee and JiWoong, the latter also shed tears when HwanHee was saved in the competition during the first elimination round, proving just how precious their friendship is. Later, HwanHee, JiWoong and Takuto hung out at COEX.
On the other hand, when HwanHee came to say his goodbyes before leaving the show, GunWook revealed that he had cried for HwanHee three times in a row now! HwanHee also shared that that Kim GyuVin came to him in tears on the day that he was leaving to adorably apologize for teasing him.
Besides them, HwanHee was also actively helpful and friendly with the other contestants, especially the G group boys. Fans know that HwanHee is a sweet and gentle soul who loves to help others and lift the mood of the room, so this comes as no surprise, but new fans found this even more endearing. HwanHee said on an Instagram live video later on that he also hung out with Chen Kuan Jui in the practice room and even learned krumping from Wang Zi Hao! He also shared that he was close to Keita and Oh SungMin, who seemed like a "hyung" at times.
Needless to say, HwanHee was one of the most beloved contestants on "Boys Planet" and even though he will be missed on the show, we hope for his quick recovery.
