According to an announcement confirmed by the group's agency, JYP Entertainment, three members Lee Know, Seungmin, and Hyunjin, were about to return to their dorms, but the vehicle they were in was involved in a "minor collision."

After the accident, the trio quickly went to a nearby hospital and received a "throrough medical examination."
