OMEGA X member Xen will not participate in the group’s upcoming 2026 NO LIMIT tour in the United States. His agency, IPQ, announced the change on August 11 after medical professionals advised him to receive sufficient rest and remain under observation.
Health concerns prompt a tour withdrawal
IPQ said Xen recently visited a hospital because of poor health and physical discomfort. Following an examination, the medical team recommended that he step back from activities for the time being rather than continue with the scheduled U.S. performances.
The agency said it discussed the situation thoroughly with Xen before deciding that he would miss the tour. The stated goal is to place his health first and give him the time required for treatment and recovery.
No specific diagnosis was disclosed. The announcement described his condition only in general terms and did not provide a timetable for his return. Any conclusion about the exact cause, severity, or expected recovery period would therefore go beyond the information made public.
Recovery will continue during the U.S. dates
Xen plans to concentrate on treatment while the rest of the group carries out the U.S. tour schedule. IPQ said it would provide the support necessary for him to recover and return in good health as soon as possible.
The decision removes the pressure of travel, rehearsals, repeated performances, and promotional duties during a period when medical staff have called for rest. Touring can involve long-distance flights, irregular sleep, physical choreography, sound checks, and frequent changes in venue, all of which can complicate recovery when an artist is unwell.
Although the agency expressed regret over the sudden news, its statement framed the absence as a preventive and health-focused measure. It asked OMEGA X’s fandom, FOR X, for understanding and encouraged supporters to send Xen warm messages during his break.
The announcement did not state that Xen is leaving the group or ending his participation in future activities. It applies specifically to the upcoming NO LIMIT U.S. tour, with his eventual return dependent on his health and recovery.
NO LIMIT will proceed with an adjusted lineup
OMEGA X’s American tour will now move forward without Xen. The notice did not outline changes to individual set lists, choreography, stage positions, or performance arrangements, so the exact adjustments remain unconfirmed.
When a member withdraws close to a tour, the remaining performers and production team may need to redistribute vocal parts and movement. However, IPQ has not publicly detailed how the group will handle Xen’s sections, and those decisions should be left to official tour updates or the performances themselves.
The change is particularly significant for fans who expected to see the complete group. At the same time, the announcement gives audiences advance notice that Xen will be absent and explains that the decision followed professional medical guidance rather than an ordinary scheduling conflict.
A clear boundary around medical privacy
Health notices involving performers often attract speculation, especially when a diagnosis is not named. In this case, the confirmed facts are limited: Xen experienced poor health and physical discomfort, received a medical examination, was advised to rest and remain under observation, and will not join the U.S. tour.
That limited disclosure preserves a degree of medical privacy while communicating the operational impact on the group. Further updates may clarify when he is ready to resume work, but the current statement does not promise a particular return date.
For now, Xen’s focus will be recovery, while OMEGA X prepares to carry out NO LIMIT with an adjusted lineup. The group’s agency has made clear that his health takes priority over the immediate tour schedule.
