TWICE's Jihyo suffered from health problems at their recent concert in Fukuoka, Japan.
On August 30, the girl group launched their world tour starting in Japan, performing for over 30,000 fans in Fukuoka. The concert was day 1 of a two-day set, from August 30-31. While TWICE's concert got off to a successful start, Jihyo ended up experiencing health issues partway through the show.
During their performance of 'Cry For Me,' Jihyo ended up leaving the stage due to unspecified health reasons. She was absent for multiple songs before returning towards the end of the concert. She then performed while seated, and in a heartwarming moment, stood up to sing during 'ONE SPARK.'
While the cause of Jihyo's health issues was not revealed, some fans speculated that it could have been because of the heat in Fukuoka - this weekend's temperatures there have reached an extreme 94 degrees Fahrenheit (34 degrees Celsius), with intense humidity. Others speculate that Jihyo's past injuries may have been bothering her, as she revealed earlier this year that she was suffering from a herniated disc in her back.
After the show, Jihyo reassured fans that she was alright with a heartfelt post on her Instagram. Posting a series of selfies and clips from the concert, Jihyo added the simple caption "I overcame it with all my strength."
