Singer BoA's fifth solo concert in Seoul has been canceled. BoA's management office SM Entertainment announced on the 15th, "BoA's fifth solo concert has been canceled.
"However, due to the health condition of the artist, it has become difficult to hold the concert," the statement said. Meanwhile, BoA will hold the concert for her 25th debut anniversary on August 30-31 at Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul.
The fifth solo concert was scheduled to be held to commemorate the death of the singer. Below is the full text of the management office's official statement: Hello, this is SM Entertainment.
We regret to inform you that BoA's fifth solo concert will be unable to be held due to the artist's health condition.
BoA recently visited a hospital where she was diagnosed with acute bone necrosis, which requires surgical treatment, due to her knee pain, and has decided to stop strenuous physical activities, such as dancing, to prevent the progression of the disease.
With the performance coming up, the medical staff determined that surgery was necessary as soon as possible, so the decision was made to have the surgery.
As a result, BoA's fifth concert, scheduled for August 30th and 31st, has been cancelled.
We deeply apologize for causing concern to fans with this sudden news, and this decision was made with the artist's health as our top priority.
Therefore, we ask for your kind understanding. In addition, this year marks the 25th anniversary of BoA's debut, so we would like to express our sincere gratitude to all the fans who have been waiting with anticipation.
The album, which has been completed, is scheduled to be released as scheduled without any changes to the schedule. We will inform you again about whether or not future concerts will be held depending on the artist's recovery from surgery.
Our company prioritizes the health and safety of our artists and will do our best to allow BoA to focus on treatment and recovery. Thank you.
