GOT7's agency, JYP Entertainment, recently confirmed that the group's leader JB won't be joining the other members for their "Fly In Seoul 2016" concerts on Friday and Saturday, but it seems he might also have to sit out some of their concerts in other countries.

JB has been suffering from back pain over the past several weeks leading up to their April 29 and 30 concerts and after a check-up, he was recently diagnosed with a spinal disc injury.

GOT7's leader will reportedly head back to the hospital later this week for further examination, XSports news reported, via Soompi.

JYPE also confirmed that JB will not be attending the press conference for the "Fly In Seoul" concert on Saturday.

Following their Seoul concerts, GOT7 is set to hold concerts in Thailand, Japan, China, Singapore and the United States. However, depending on the results of his upcoming medical exam, it seems JB will be missing some of their concerts overseas, GOT7's agency said.
