Taeil Departs from NCT Amid Sexual Offense Allegations

Taeil, a 30-year-old member of the South Korean boy band NCT, has left the group following accusations of an unspecified sexual offense. The news was confirmed by his agency, SM Entertainment, on Wednesday.

Who is Taeil?

Moon Tae-il, known mononymously as Taeil, is a singer and songwriter. He was born in South Korea's capital, Seoul, and began his singing career in 2013 when he was discovered. He made his debut in April 2016 in the rotational unit NCT U and became a member of the Seoul-based unit NCT 127 in July 2016.

The Accusations and Departure

The 30-year-old singer was recently active in NCT 127 and promoted the group's sixth LP, "Walk," which was released in July. However, following the allegations, Taeil has departed from NCT, leaving fans and the K-pop community in shock.

The details of the accusations remain limited, but the sudden departure of Taeil has raised numerous questions. With his exit, the future of NCT remains uncertain.

Taeil was part of the parent NCT unit as well as the NCT 127 sub-unit. This is not the first time NCT has faced controversy, with SM Entertainment previously addressing a scandal involving NCT members Johnny and Jaehyun.

As the K-pop industry continues to grapple with the consequences of Taeil's departure, fans are left to wonder what the future holds for NCT.
