Mayday guitarist Stone rumored to consider leaving band

Rumors have circulated within the music industry regarding Mayday guitarist Stone (Shi Jin-hang) potentially leaving the band. Reports suggest his considerations stem from recurring lumbar disc herniation caused by years of high-intensity touring, alongside the difficulty of balancing his career with his family, as his wife and children have relocated to the United Kingdom.

During previous concert tours, Stone has occasionally missed performances due to these physical ailments. Some observers noted emotional exchanges between band members, including vocalist Ashin, which appeared to address the physical toll of touring on Stone.

Believe Music, the band's management, has denied the rumors, stating, “There is no such thing. Mayday is currently on hiatus, and a major film will be meeting everyone soon.” The band recently concluded their 25th-anniversary tour in July and is currently on a two-year hiatus to focus on personal lives and new album production.
