Rei, a member of girl group IVE, raises concerns among fans as she faced health issues ahead of the group’s comeback.
On April 10th, Rei was unable to fully participate in IVE’s comeback showcase for their 1st full album and had to leave early.
In particular, the showcase for IVE’s first full album “I’ve IVE”, was held at Conrad Seoul Hotel in Yeouido, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul in the afternoon of the same day. The event consisted of a music video preview, album introduction, and Q&A session. However, Rei, who had participated in the photo time, was not seen during the subsequent segments.
Explaining the situation, the event’s host announced, “Rei attended the photo time but was unable to participate in the rest of the event due to her worsening condition. We ask for your understanding.”
Afterwards, the remaining members completed the schedule as normal.
Meanwhile, fans have been expressing their sadness and concerns about Rei’s absence. Below are some comments from netizens:
- Get well soon
- Stay strong Rei
- Her face looked unwell when she arrived in the country
- I’ve never seen her so drained before
- Don’t be sick
- I hope she rests and gets better soon
- The schedule was too much, with comeback preparations and Paris performance, then a press conference…
On the other hand, IVE, who officially debuted in December 2021, released their first full album and made a comeback on April 10th.
The title track of this album is “I AM”, which contains messages such as “Have confidence in the path you are on” and “Discover a version of yourself different from yesterday.” It is known that renowned lyricist Kim Eana participated in the production.
At the same time, IVE members Ahn Yu Jin and Jang Won Young each wrote lyrics for three tracks in the album. Meanwhile, the album has a total of 11 tracks.
