DuelJewel's Hayato to Pause Activities

DuelJewel's vocalist Hayato is to pause activities in order to undergo medical treatment for throat problems.

The band has reassured fans through their official site that they don't want to fully cease band activities, and so the four remaining members will continue playing without Hayato for the time being. The date of his return is tentatively planned for February 17th next year for the band's Luminous Tour Final at Shibuya O-EAST, though this depends on Hayato's condition after he has received treatment.

The band apologizes for any inconvenience and asks for the fans' understanding and support.
