The label stated, "UP10TION's Hwanhee was unable to participate in Mnet's 'Boys Planet' competition due to health problems, so he dropped out of the program."

That's a shame, especially considering everything that happened with Wooseok and X1. Their company is trying to gain some traction for UP10TION, but sadly that doesn't seem to be working with these shows. I'm sure the extreme filming conditions on top of the stress of knowing that your team is depending upon your popularity to bring more attention to the group was equally difficult. I wish him well.
