Singer BoA has canceled her solo concert scheduled for next month due to health reasons.
Her agency, SM Entertainment, stated on the 15th, “BoA has been diagnosed with acute avascular necrosis after visiting a hospital due to worsening knee pain, and has decided to undergo surgery based on the medical team's recommendations,” adding, “As a result, the concert scheduled for August 30-31 has been inevitably canceled.”
Celebrating her 25th anniversary since debut this year, BoA was set to hold a commemorative concert on the 30th-31st of next month at the Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul.
SM plans to decide on the concert's status based on BoA's recovery progress after the surgery. Separately from the concert, the album planned for release in the third quarter will be made public as scheduled.
SM noted, “We will do our best to ensure that BoA can focus on her treatment and recovery, prioritizing the health and safety of the artist.”
