Due to discussions about his personal life, Lucas, who left NCT and WayV, has opened an official X (formerly Twitter) account. On the 21st, news spread online that Lucas's official X account had been created. The account does not contain photos or descriptions of Lucas, but it is marked with the "SM" logo indicating that he is an artist under SM Entertainment, and already has over 130,000 followers. Rumors are circulating that his activities may resume soon, and attention is focused on his future actions. Prior to this, in August 2021, Lucas suspended group activities due to discussions about his personal life. Then, in February 2022, he updated his Instagram for the first time in about six months to report his current situation. Furthermore, in February 2023, he released a video of himself practicing dance in the studio, leading to speculation that his activities would resume soon, but in May of the same year, he announced his sudden departure from NCT and WayV. About a month after his departure, in June of the same year, he opened "Bubble" to communicate with fans. Since then, he has occasionally shared updates on his personal life through his Instagram.
