South Korean singer Taeil has left K-pop group NCT

South Korean singer Taeil has left K-pop group NCT. He did so after being charged with an unspecified sex crime, his label announced on Wednesday.

SM Entertainment, which represents the 30-year-old singer, released a statement on X saying that the NCT member was leaving the boy group after learning that he had been “charged in a criminal case related to a sexual offense.”

The label did not specify the nature of the alleged crime, but said it “recognizes the seriousness of the situation” and has decided that Taeil, whose official name is Moon Tae-il, can no longer “continue his activities with the team.”

Taeil has not publicly commented on the allegations. (Reuters)
