SM Entertainment (hereinafter referred to as SM) announced on the 15th that "BoA's fifth solo concert has become difficult to proceed due to artist health reasons."
BoA was recently diagnosed with acute osteonecrosis requiring surgical treatment by the hospital she visited due to severe knee pain, and decided to perform surgery based on the medical staff's opinion that excessive physical activity, performance such as dance, and surgery should be carried out as soon as possible to prevent the disease from progressing.
To mark the 25th anniversary of her debut this year, BoA was scheduled to hold a solo performance at Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul on August 30-31.
SM said it will announce the possibility of holding concerts in the future according to the progress of recovery, adding that `This year is a meaningful year for BoA's 25th anniversary, so we plan to release the album as scheduled for the fans who have waited with high expectations.'

Hello, we're SM Entertainment.
I would like to inform you that BoA's fifth solo concert has become difficult to proceed due to artist health reasons.

As a result, I would like to inform you that BoA's fifth concert, which was scheduled for two days from August 30th to 31st, has been inevitably canceled. We deeply apologize for causing concern to our fans with the sudden news, and we ask for your generous understanding as this is a decision that puts the health of the artist first.
In addition, this year marks the 25th anniversary of BoA's debut, so we plan to release the album as scheduled for the fans who have waited with high expectations. We will re-announce the possibility of holding a concert in the future according to the artist's recovery after surgery.
We will do our best to ensure that BoA is committed to treatment and recovery, considering the health and safety of the artist as our top priority.
