Lee Hyori Checks Herself Into Hospital Before Concert
Looks like her fans’ worries just came true. Singer Lee Hyori has been hospitalised 2 days before her first-ever solo concert since debuting.
She checked herself into a local hospital on 17th December in Gangnam-gu, for flu and exhaustion. Hyori had been busy preparing for her sold-out concert and other scheduled activities. She had fallen ill with flu and felt fatiqued after her scheduled recording for SBS Family Outing on the 15th and 16th.
Mnet Media expressed, “Lee Hyori has been hospitalised for flu and exhuastion. We wanted to let her rest for a few days at the hospital but it would be hard for her to rest totally since we are just 2 days away from her concert.”
Lee Hyori returned to her concert venue for rehearsals after receiving her treatment at the hospital on the 17th. It was the same on the 18th as she took in some rest at the hospital before going back for her concert rehearsal.
Concert erupts on 19th and 20th December at Jamsil Olympic Stadium.
