Lucas Wong, formerly a member of the K-pop groups NCT, WayV, and SuperM, experienced a significant career interruption due to a scandal in 2021. He was accused by multiple women of misconduct, including gaslighting, financial exploitation, and infidelity, which led him to halt all showbiz activities and issue a public apology. Despite no formal legal resolution favoring him, SM Entertainment delayed his activities, and he eventually left NCT and WayV in 2023 to pursue individual endeavors. After a period of hiatus and reflection documented in a 2024 YouTube documentary series, Lucas made a solo debut with the single album "Renegade" in April 2024 and started a solo fan-con tour across Asia. In 2025, he is making his acting debut in a Taiwanese drama, marking a new chapter in his career away from music group activities. Throughout this period, Lucas has expressed gratitude for the opportunity to start fresh and continues to work in the entertainment industry with a focus on solo projects and acting.
