We are gradually getting so many mentions of Lucas and WayV being a seven-member group that fans are wondering if they are close to getting him back. K-pop idol Lucas was embroiled in a dating scandal where four of his alleged exes claimed that he had gaslit them, used their money, and cheated on them. Some fans also speculated that sexual assault might have been involved despite it not being mentioned in the allegations. But instead of denying or accepting the accusations, SM and Lucas simply apologized and the NCT star went on hiatus in August 2021.

But the sudden influx of Lucas' mentions has made fans suspicious. We first had a leaked sales guide of SM claiming that Lucas and Hendery’s sub-unit single ‘Jalapeno’ would be released in 2022. Lucas then came online on Instagram to post a picture of the sea in February. In May second week, we had Yangyang confirming that WayV still had seven members. This was followed by leader Kun sharing that they had recently had a group call with the seven of them.

Lucas allegedly signs off as 'NCT's Lucas'

And now on May 31, a Knetizen, who was present at a driver’s license school Green Academy, shared a photo of Lucas’ autograph. OP (original poster) claimed that several NCT members had gone to the academy last week to get their driver’s license and then signed on the celebrity wall. The last NCT member’s autograph happened to be Lucas who signed off as "NCT’s Lucas".

In the past, K-pop groups have been schooled by their labels not to mention anything alluding to any scandals since the general public is extremely sensitive. And so with the WayV members hinting at Lucas still being a part of the group and the idol allegedly signing NCT, fans are wondering if OP's post is even true and if SM is just testing the waters to see the public’s reaction to whether Lucas is still welcome in the K-pop industry.

‘SM has been pretty vague’

One user posted, “It felt like SM is telling them to say that there are 7 to test out people's reactions. Like, they would take about the members doing something. then they pause and rephrase their statement to the 7 members doing something. Like, it just seemed so out of place when kun mentioned it during his live. It sounded more obligatory rather than full-on support for Lucas. Also, it doesn't help that SM has been pretty vague and unresponsive recently about the situation.”

Another similarly commented, “There's no way SM are kicking him out ...if others managed to survive , he is going to survive SM are just testing the water for the moment to make it official.”



 



 

Some fans were unhappy with the post as one tweeted, “He needs to leaveee us nctzens have been waiting for him to leave.” A Knetizen wrote, “Huh? Lucas is still in NCT?? They're not kicking him out??” Another added, “I remember that he ruined Jalapeno and Hendery's efforts in it. I personally don't want him back wayv can work well as six.”

One wondered if the incident was fake in the first place, “They really took this old pic from superm’s collab with korean air n thought we wouldn’t notice💀💀stop believing everything u see on this app jus cuz its written in korean.” Another fan shared, “Just let the man be in hiatus in peace for gods sake… i swear yall make his name goes trending every two weeks.” One added, “I don't know this is true or not but im glad he's doing good.”
