V and Jungkook confess health issues... V with 'hearing loss', Jungkook with 'shin pain' causing emergency on world tour

BTS members V and Jungkook recently revealed their health issues to fans. On the 12th, V disclosed on a Weverse live broadcast with Jungkook that he has had hearing problems for the past two and a half years. He explained that his left ear hears normally, but his right ear only hears about 30%. He has been consistently taking medication and receiving hospital treatment. He also shared that his symptoms worsened during his military service and that people exercising with him in the military mistook his condition for a mental issue. V said he is still continuing hospital treatments. Jungkook revealed that he is on the verge of a stress fracture in his shin. He said that even at the recent Baltimore concert in the U.S., he wanted to run on stage but could not properly do so due to pain. Jungkook explained that there is significant inflammation in his shin and there seems to be minor damage to the bone. He said, ″I will definitely run when I have to, but I need to take care of my body in between, even if it means holding back, to finish this tour well.″ The disclosure of their health conditions came as BTS continues their North American leg of the world tour ’ARIRANG.’ V and Jungkook shared this information through a Weverse live broadcast after the Baltimore concert in the U.S. on the 11th (local time). Their agency BigHit Music has not issued a separate statement. BTS will continue their performances at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, U.S., on the 15th and 16th, and will perform at Rogers Stadium in Toronto, Canada, on the 22nd and 23rd. Meanwhile, it is reported that the Toronto City Council reviewed and approved a proposal to name some roads ’BTS Boulevard’ from the 21st to the 23rd in celebration of BTS’s Toronto concerts. A request has also been submitted to Toronto city authorities to declare the concert period as ’BTS Weekend.’
