Lucas also took his heartfelt apology letter on his personal Instagram account with his announcement as well.

Hello, this is Lucas.

 

Today, I have an important announcement to share with you.

 

After much deliberation and reflection, I have made the difficult decision to part ways with the group NCT and WayV. I sincerely feel sorry for the members, and it is with a heavy heart that I leave behind a long-standing friendship. It has been nearly 8 years since I first joined the members, and I am deeply grateful for their care and support. I will cherish these memories and never forget. I hope that the members will remember me as Huang Xuxi, not just Lucas. I genuinely love them and will always support them from the bottom of my heart.

 

It took considerable time for me to reach this decision, and I believe this is the right decision for the good of all. Moving forward, I intend to muster the courage to face the fans who have been waiting for me and to pursue individual endeavors. I believe the best way to repay the fans who support me is by continuing to deliver outstanding performances.

I will strive to become a more mature Huang Xuxi and an even better Lucas.

 

Lastly, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to all the fans and everyone who has continually supported me.
