ATEEZ' Seonghwa will be absent from the group's Oakland concert soundcheck due to his grandfather's passing.

On July 16, ATEEZ' label KQ Entertainment revealed fans won't be seeing Seonghwa at the group's soundcheck for their 'TOWARDS THE LIGHT: WILL TO POWER' concert in Oakland, California on July 17. Seonghwa will be sitting out due to his grandfather's passing, but he'll still be performing for the concert later the same evening following the funeral.

Check out KQ Entertainment's statement below.

"Hello.

This is KQ Entertainment.

It is with deepest regrets and sadness that we bring notice of Seonghwa’s grandfather’s passing on the 15th of July.

We extend our heartfelt sympathies and ask for your warm condolences and encouragement for Seonghwa during this time as we keep the dearly departed in our thoughts and prayers.

After careful discussions with the company, Seonghwa has made the decision return to his schedules in the U.S. after taking time for him to be with his family and friends for the mourning process and funeral. As such, he will not be participating in the ‘[TOWARDS THE LIGHT : WILL TO POWER] IN OAKLAND’ SOUND CHECK taking place on July 17, but will partake in the concert performance on that day as scheduled.

We ask for your understanding and once again extend our deepest condolences and sympathies and ask for your warm comfort and encouragements for the family and loved ones.

Thank you."
