Injuries And Illness: BLINKs Express Concern For The BLACKPINK Members’ Health Amid Ongoing World Tour
From making their long-awaited comeback after nearly two years in August 2022 to hitting the road for their BORN PINK world tour in October, with numerous individual schedules in between, there has been no sign of slowing down for BLACKPINK.
With 13 shows remaining on their 62-show BORN PINK tour, BLINKs are expressing concern for the members’ health.
BLACKPINK currently has two shows left on the Asia leg of their tour and just completed two nights of encore shows in Thailand’s largest stadium.
During their Thailand encore concerts, fans noticed that BLACKPINK’s Jennie had her shoulder wrapped, indicating that she might be injured, though she continued with her performance and schedules without letting on that she may be in pain.
oh, what happened to jennie’s shoulder

Her team confirmed that she was injured during her appearance at Chanel‘s Métiers D Art in Tokyo on June 1, when photographers requested that she wave for photos, and Jennie announced that she wasn’t able to wave.
When the media asked why, a staff member, identified as Jennie’s manager Alison, informed the press that she was unfortunately injured.
Baby hope you have speedy recovery 🙏🏼

Eagle-eyed BLINKs also noticed that, in recent concerts, Lisa appeared to be tending to a neck injury that she’s had since late last year.

YG Entertainment most recently announced that member Jisoo tested positive for COVID-19 and would not be participating in the group’s June 3 and 4 shows in Osaka for her health and the safety of her fellow members and staff.
With two group members nursing injuries, Jisoo sick, constant schedules for all four members, and new shows being added to their tour, BLINKs are calling on YG Entertainment to let the members rest and recover.
Yeah all these extra tour dates are too much too often. Jennie got an injured shoulder. Saw a tik tok post with Lisa’s shoulder injury as well. Now Jisoo got Covid, Rosé the only one standing rn health wise and we never know she could be injured or sore as well. 😐

Jennie and Lisa got injured, Jisoo got covid, hopefully Rosé is healthy now.
YG really overworked the Pinks now 😭 they’re human as well please give them some breaks to recover.
From all the travels alone already so tiring and they still have to perform on the world tour.

Jennie is injured everywhere,jisoo is COVID +ve, chaelisa must be tired too. Pinks need rest and those encores needed to be scheduled after a month or long gap, considering they have Hyde park festival too
