Lucas wrote a letter for fans after leaving NCT and WayV.

On May 10 KST, SM Entertainment announced Lucas would be leaving to pursue solo activities. Soon after the news, Lucas himself took to Instagram to post a letter to fans. He wrote:

"Hello, this is Lucas.

Today, I have an important announcement to share with you.

After much deliberation and reflection, I have made the difficult decision to part ways with the group NCT and WayV. I sincerely feel sorry for the members, and it is with a heavy heart that I leave behind a long-standing friendship. It has been nearly 8 years since I first joined the members, and I am deeply grateful for their care and support. I will cherish these memories and never forget. I hope that the members will remember me as Huang Xuxi, not just Lucas. I genuinely love them and will always support them from the bottom of my heart.

It took considerable time for me to reach this decision, and I believe this is the right decision for the good of all. Moving forward, I intend to muster the courage to face the fans who have been waiting for me and to pursue individual endeavors. I believe the best way to repay the fans who support me is by continuing to deliver outstanding performances.
I will strive to become a more mature Huang Xuxi and an even better Lucas.

Lastly, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to all the fans and everyone who has continually supported me."

In related news, Lucas' withdrawal comes following multiple controversies related to his personal life, including alleged cheating and gaslighting in his relationships.
