BLACKPINK K-Pop Star Jeannie Quits Concert in Australia

YG Management of the K-Pop BLACKPINK  has provided an update on Jennie’s health following her departure from a concert in Melbourne over the weekend. Jennie can be seen in video on Sunday (June 11) in Rod Laver Arena in Australia dancing through four-part choreography with her colleagues Rosé, Lisa, and Jisoo as they sing their 2020 hit “Lovesick Girls.”

The Idol star then abruptly stops performing and turns to leave offstage, clearly exhausted.

Following the concert, Rosé, Lisa, and Jisoo reportedly told the audience that Jennie had been feeling ill since earlier that day, which YG Entertainment confirmed in a statement. “We regret to inform you that during the BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR [BORN PINK] IN MELBOURNE performance on June 11 (today), member JENNIE was unable to complete the stage due to her deteriorating condition,” said the firm in a statement posted to Weverse.

“JENNIE expressed her strong determination to carry on with the performance until the end,” the note added. “However, after receiving medical advice on the spot, we immediately took steps to ensure she receives adequate rest and stability.” JENNIE has expressed her sadness for being unable to stay with the fans to the conclusion, and she promises to recuperate as soon as possible.”

YG also stated that Jennie’s staff is doing everything necessary to ensure her “speedy recovery,” and he urged fans for “understanding in this situation.”

The girls will only get a few days off before their next stop in Sydney, where they will perform two gigs at the Qudos Bank Arena on Friday (June 16) and Saturday (June 17). Meanwhile, many admirers on social media are rallying behind Jennie, pushing her to put her health first.

“She’s so brave, still stepping up to the stage despite being sick,” one BLINK tweeted. “Recover quickly, Jennie.”

“The fact that she still went out on stage even though she felt really sick just shows how much she cares about her fans,” said another. “We love you, Jennie, and please take all the rest you need.”
