Seventeen's The8 sustains collarbone fracture

SEOUL, Feb. 14 (Yonhap) -- The8, a member of the popular boy group Seventeen, has fractured his left collarbone, the group's management agency said Tuesday.

He was advised by doctors to wear a fracture brace and keep from moving excessively until he recovers, according to Pledis Entertainment.

"We'll manage his future schedule flexibly, putting top priority on his recovery," it said.

But he will attend an upcoming autograph signing event and a meet and greet with Chinese fans as planned wearing the brace, according to the agency.

It did not say how he got the injury.
