Wanna One's Kang Daniel Health and Fans

Kang Daniel's agency revealed on December 6th that he has been unwell and was sent to the hospital because he had a high fever and severe dizziness. Although he is doing better now, he is not fully well and so has been taking rest. He has been given a leave from his schedule and only made a brief appearance at the Samsung Event where Wanna One was invited. He spoke for a few minutes to the fans and then left.

I have seen this often that kpop idols tend to over-exert themselves when they have a lot of schedules, and as there is a lot of pressure on new kpop groups, they tend to get sick a lot. This is especially due to the fact that they are still quite new to this lifestyle and must still be adjusting to the high expectations from them. Hope Daniel feels better soon!

In other news, fans of Wanna One gave Kang Daniel a very special present by putting up a billboard of him in New York's Times Square City. His birthday is December 10th and his fans wanted to start celebrating it early, i guess. Kang Daniel thanked everyone in his adorable and humble way by saying, “I saw the New York Times Square billboard. I only have memories of spending my birthdays in my room with my mom and two cats, so this is the first time I’m being wished a happy birthday by so many people. Thank you." (Argh! He's so perfect!)
