Bilibili Gaming have announced that Park "Viper" Do-hyeon will not attend an Arcane immersive music show scheduled for May 23, citing a worsening hand injury that requires the bot laner to return to Korea for further medical examination before the LPL playoffs.
In a statement posted on Weibo on May 21, BLG explained that the decision was made after a comprehensive evaluation and following the latest medical advice, with both the player's health and his upcoming competitive schedule in mind. The organisation apologised to fans who had bought tickets for the event and thanked the show's organisers for their understanding.

The announcement also appears to push back against speculation that had emerged after one of Viper's agents at Shadow Corp revealed his return to Korea. Some observers wondered whether the trip was tied to BLG's statement frames the visit strictly as a medical matter, though it does not technically rule out a round trip with other business addressed while he is home.
