Jennie Kim of BLACKPINK Suddenly Leaves the Stage During BORN PINK Melbourne Concert

Following the previous dating rumors and dance scene controversy in The Idol series, BLACKPINK’s gorgeous singer-rapper becomes the center of the global spotlight once again after leaving the stage in the middle of a concert.

On June 11, global superstar BLACKPINK held their BORN PINK world tour concert in Melbourne, Australia. During the concert performance, BLACKPINK members were singing their hit song, Lovesick Girls, when Jennie suddenly turned and walked toward the stage exit. Then, the 3 remaining BLACKPINK members Rosé, Jisoo, and Lisa continued performing without her.

What Really Happened to Jennie Kim?

So, what really happened to BLACKPINK Jennie Kim?

While this may come as a shock to the general public, BLACKPINK loyal fans realized Jennie was not in optimal health. That is because earlier in the day, Jennie Kim was unable to attend the soundcheck for BLACKPINK’s BORN PINK concert in Melbourne. At the time, BLACKPINK’s vocalist Rosé explained to the audience that Jennie had to save her strength for the upcoming performance.

Still, apparently, Jennie’s condition is much worse than expected. Even after resting and skipping the soundcheck, the BLACKPINK rapper vocalist seemed pale and weak. Although she managed to pull just enough strength to move her body during the performance, it seemed that her body could no longer take it.

Then, she finally gave up. Jennie turned around and walked toward the stage’s exit, where the staff were waiting for her. They immediately took care of Jennie.

Following her exit from the stage, fans realized that BLACKPINK Jennie was pushing herself too hard for the Melbourne concert. They even noticed a black band-aid on her arm, signaling that Jennie had been receiving an IV-drip treatment that night. And still, her health got so much worse that she had to exit the stage.

she’s performing with a saline iv.. i’m saying this as a med student, it might be a treatment for dehydration, normal saline is given without a second thought for a variety of conditions, it could be over vomiting aswell. jennie please take care of yourself. pic.twitter.com/DgqKeS4u9E

Still, there is yet an exact explanation of what happened to Jennie Kim of BLACKPINK from the agency. Fans can simply speculate from the IV-drip treatment that Jennie might suffer a cold due to the weather since Jennie was previously seen wearing a padded jacket. At the same time, others assume that she might have food poisoning.
