Their concert, which took place on Sunday, June 11, 2023, was briefly interrupted when one of the band members, Jennie Kim, rushed off of the stage.
The singer, who is 27-years-old, was in the middle of performing the band’s fifth song of the night, Lovesick Girls, before putting her hands on her head and rushing off of the stage.
The three remaining band members let their pal exit the stage before making an announcement of their own.
Singer Roseanne Park – Rosé – told their fans 15,000 fans: “It seems that we will be proceeding with the rest of the show without Jennie.”
