Report on Taiki Kudo discharge from hospital

Thank you for always supporting Da-iCE.

We are pleased to announce that our member, Taiki Kudo underwent arthroscopic meniscus repair surgery on Tuesday, January 28th, and was safely discharged from the hospital today.

He had been reporting discomfort in his knee since last year and had been undergoing treatment, but when he underwent another detailed examination at a medical institution, damage to the meniscus in his right knee was confirmed, so after consulting with the doctor, himself, and all other relevant parties, we have decided that he would undergo surgery at this time.

It is expected that it will be approximately six months before Taiki Kudo returns to full live performances as part of Da-iCE, but he will continue his activities as much as possible under the guidance of a doctor and undergo rehabilitation.

He will also appear as scheduled in the "Da-iCE ai contact TOUR 2025" starting on Sunday, February 9th, depending on his recovery status.

Furthermore, he will be appearing as a personality on TBS Radio's "TALK ABOUT" on Saturday, February 8th, and is scheduled to make a further announcement in person at the beginning of the program.

We sincerely apologize to you for this sudden announcement and for causing you concern.
I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to all the medical professionals who assisted me in my treatment.

We will provide the best possible support to help him make a full recovery, so we appreciate your continued support for Da-iCE and Taiki Kudo.
