NCT’s Mark Concerns Fans With Fragile Health Condition

Mark from NCT is facing major health concerns after a recent body vitality test revealed his physical age matches people in their 30s to 40s — and he’s only in his mid-20s.
The checkup results shocked fans, showing Mark’s body activity and aging levels are far ahead of his actual age. This has sparked alarm across online communities. Fans worry his relentless schedule has taken a serious toll on his health.
“mark’s body activity and body aging level it’s at the level of people of their 30-40s this may not be physically felt by mark now, but will be felt after he is over 30 years old. mark really needs rest and a proper overall check-up.”

Medical experts explained the warning clearly: Mark may not feel the effects now because he’s young. But by his 30s, symptoms like digestion issues and fatigue could arise due to rapid aging caused by overwork.
“For Mark, it’s at the level of people in their 30s and 40s. The body activity level and the body aging level, it’s saying that you’re aging quickly. You can’t feel them because you’re young now, but you’ll feel it once you’re past your 30s. Things like not being able to digest well. It’s important that you’re aware of it now.”
The news hit a nerve with fans and outsiders alike. Many called out the grueling lifestyle idols face with nonstop schedules, poor eating habits, and lack of sleep — relying heavily on IV drips and supplements just to keep going.
“Idols are overworked, sleep deprived, they don’t eat that much and heavily rely on IV drips and tons of supplements most of the time to function. It’s so normalized in kpop…. it’s sickening. They look good on the outside but they are not ok inside.”

Some non-fans also weighed in, urging SM Entertainment to let Mark and fellow member Haechan rest after more than a decade of constant work starting in their teens.

Fans are now demanding SM Entertainment take Mark’s health seriously and give the idol proper rest.
“thinking about the life these idols live, the extreme dieting, not getting enough nutrients, being barely 60kg as a grown man, the overworking, barely getting any sleep, the stress they go through, you realise none of these idols will be seeing their 70’s”
