Oct 09, 2018

Big Hit Entertainment has informed fans that BTS’s Jungkook will be performing while seated at the group’s October 9 concert in London.

On October 9 local time, the agency released the following statement in English:

“Good evening. This is Big Hit Entertainment.

“Ladies and gentlemen, we regret to announce that an issue has occurred that may affect the performance of one of the members of BTS scheduled to appear tonight, Jungkook.

“Approximately two hours ago, following the rehearsal and sound check, Jungkook was lightly stretching in the waiting room when he collided with floor furnishings and suffered an injury to his heel. Medical staff immediately responded and performed the necessary treatment. The opinion of the medical team is that while the injury is not serious, performing choreography may do further damage to the injured area.

“Following the advice of the medical staff, Jungkook will take part in the performance tonight but remain seated without choreography.

“We sincerely apologize to all of our fans who have been eagerly awaiting tonight’s performance, and ask for your understanding.

“Thank you.”
