SM Entertainment recently shared a health update for fans of Aespa’s Karina before their Japan concert at Fukuoka. On July 28, 2024, the entertainment agency revealed that Karina would not participate in the Osaka concert. Reportedly, a doctor made the diagnosis after the girl group finished rehearsal.
Aespa is scheduled to perform at Japan’s Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall B on July 30, and SM Entertainment has recently revealed if Karina will join the group. Meanwhile, Aespa will continue their SYNK PARALLEL LINE in August as well. The award-winning girl group will perform in Taiwan, China, Japan, Indonesia, and Australia.
Is Aespa’s Karina okay?
Aespa’s Karina will not attend Fukuoka’s upcoming SYNK PARALLEL LINE live tour concert. Per SM Entertainment, the 24-year-old singer needs rest to heal from her physical condition.
