This news made fans remember other times members had to stop working due to health reasons. In only ten months since the group debuted, three members have taken breaks because of illness. They have not even reached their first anniversary yet. Fans now ask if the boys are being worked too much. Things like shingles and rhabdomyolysis can come from too much hard work, no rest, and a weak body. Therefore, they believe that the members hardly get any time off.
