According to OP’s caption, BOYNEXTDOOR shared an unedited photo revealing blisters on Leehan’s lips. Could these be a result of fatigue?

In the comments section, K-netz showed their sympathy towards the idol and acknowledged the demanding nature of his schedule as a group member. They also speculated that the cold sores were a result of exhaustion and pressure. See their comments below:

  • “He’s a kid who doesn’t want to show fans his sick side so seeing posts like these makes me sad.”
  • “It must be hard.”
  • “He seriously must be sick and having a hard time. I don’t have herpes, but I have shingles and I can understand his pain.”
  • “It must be so painful.”
  • “Wow, that’s so severe though? It must hurt.”
  • “I have cheilitis and have been having a hard time for months now so this feels relatable. Let’s all improve our immune system.”
  • “Imagine how insane his schedule must be. I feel bad for him.”
  • “Wow what to do, how are they still promoting a kid like this? He has to rest.”
  • “You can have herpes flare-ups even without sexual contact. I hope that nobody misunderstands.”
  • “I hope he rests well, this is an issue with his immune system.”

This led to KOZ Entertainment allowing Leehan to rest and recuperate, as suggested by international fans.

  • “He literally was continuously going around to promote with his lips swollen, he could barely talk.”
  • “He tried his best but you could tell he was in so much pain. I hope he can rest soon.”
  • “I have never seen a flare-up like that in real life. Most people have a pea-sized area, the smaller ones are common.”
  • “He looks tired and sick as hell even with makeup and his eyes seem so sad. Poor kid just let him miss some promotions and rest.”
  • No but why would they make him or let him work like that? He should’ve been treating that ASAP with topical creams and at this point, he actually needs medication.”

On the other hand, some fans on social media platform X (Twitter) addressed certain internet users for spreading unfounded comments about the idol’s lip condition. They argued that it was likely just a cold sore and expressed their concern for Leehan.
