INFINITE made an announcement on February 22 that they would be pausing all promotional activities for their 8th mini-album following the heartbreaking loss of Sunggyu's older sister. The group decided to cancel performances in Kuala Lumpur as a mark of respect.
However, on February 25, there was a positive update from INFINITE Company as they revealed that the group would be resuming activities starting with their 15th Anniversary Concert in Hong Kong after thoughtful consideration. The label stated, "After careful discussions with the artist, he is scheduled to resume activities starting with the 2024 - 2025 INFINITE 15th ANNIVERSARY CONCERT ‘LIMITED EDITION’ IN HONG KONG on Saturday, March 1. Additionally, all previously paused content and social media uploads will gradually resume."
Excitement was building for INFINITE's highly anticipated comeback with 'Like INFINITE' scheduled for March 8. Unfortunately, the group had to pause these activities due to the tragic circumstances surrounding Sunggyu's sister.
Below is the full statement from INFINITE Company regarding the resumption of activities:
