[BREAKING NEWS!!!] Gongchan found out that his kidneys weren't good (some hereditary thing) during baby goodnight promotions, but he decided to hang on and went for surgery. His surgery was successful, and he went for it because he had no other choice.

Group B1A4’s member Gongchan received a kidney removal surgery today. (23rd)

According to Gongchan’s doctor “Gongchan’s diagnoses was an apriority narrowing of his kidney pelvis ureter in which one side of his kidney was not able to function and therefore received surgery.”

B1A4’s company WM Entertainment claimed “Gongchan was experiencing pains on his side during Baby Good Night promotions and was diagnosed with kidney problems when consulting with the doctor. However, his strong will to undergo surgery once the Baby Good Night promotions were over delayed his surgery. Whenever Gongchan would experience pains he would take pain killers and go on with his promotions with bright looks, making it unaware to fellow B1A4 members and fans. He also didn’t want the fans to worry so asked to keep information of the surgery quiet.”

Currently, Gongchan’s surgery has gone successfully and is recovering in the hospital. He will be hospitalized for a week.

Once he is out of the hospital there should be no problems with everyday life but will need to avoid promotions for the time being.

B1A4 member Gongchan received surgery for kidney removal today (23 July) morning.

Gongchan’s representative states, “Gongchan’s kidney problem is in-born, and is due to one of his ureter being too narrow for his kidney to function properly. Hence we have decided on surgery to remove one of his kidneys.”

B1A4′s company WM Entertainment continued, “During the promotions for Sleep Well, Good Night, Gongchan complained of pains in his side and was brought to the hospital for a detailed checkup where it was found that his kidney was not functioning well due to a birth defect. It was of his own strong insistence to receive surgery only after all music promotions had ended. Whenever Gongchan felt pain, he received pain killer shots and forced himself to continue on with his promotions. Instead of showing pain, his face was always bright whenever he thought about the B1A4 members and fans. He also asked us not to reveal the plans of his surgery before it happened as he did not want to cause the fans to worry.”

Currently Gongchan’s surgery has successfully concluded, and will be admitted into hospital to recover for about a week.

After he is discharged, he can return to his normal life, except to stay away from doing any forceful movements.

With the successful conclusions of their music promotion, B1A4 will be showing off their different sides through KBS JOY’s Hello Baby starting on 25 July.

"During promotions for ‘Sleep Well, Good Night’, Gongchan had complained of pains in his side. After receiving a complete medical checkup at the hospital, it was revealed that his kidney was not functioning well. However, Gongchan had a strong desire to continue with promotions and receive surgery after the group’s activities, so we decided to delay his surgery. Whenever Gongchan experienced pain, he’d receive painkillers and continue with promotions. He always had a bright smile while thinking of his fellow members and his fans, making his medical condition unaware to the public. Gongchan had personally asked to keep the news of his surgery quiet because he did not want to cause unnecessary concern for his fans."
