BTS member Jin will not participate fully at the band’s upcoming BTS PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE – LAS VEGAS concerts owing to an injury in his left index finger, reported Soompi.
The announcement came early on April 8 from the band’s agency Big Hit Music in an official statement.
According to Big Hit, Jin’s doctors have asked him to refrain from “vigorous movements” after the performer underwent surgery on March 19 to fix the extensor in his index finger.
The statement shared: “Jin had injured his left index finger as the tendons in the finger had been partially damaged and underwent surgery to repair the extensor in the finger…”
BTS’s agency then explained: “The doctor suggested that Jin should refrain from vigorous movement as any excessive moments or impact on his finger while he is still recovering from the injury may force him to undergo another surgery.”
The statement added that while Jin himself ‘strongly wishes’ to fully participate, Big Hit has decided that it advisable for him to follow his physician’s advice.
“As a result, Jin’s choreography and stage performances will be limited to a certain extent. We ask for the understanding and support from all our fans,” the statement concluded.
BTS is scheduled to perform in Las Vegas on April 8, 9, 15 and 16.
