SAKURA will miss the 2026 LE SSERAFIM tour 'Pure Flow in Paris' on the 21st after experiencing a sudden high fever. Source Music announced that the artist requires rest following medical advice, impacting the group's first solo concert in France.

SAKURA of the group LE SSERAFIM will not take the stage for her scheduled performance in Paris, France, after experiencing sudden symptoms of high fever. Although the event was a significant milestone as the group's first solo concert in Paris and part of their first European tour, the decision to withdraw was made following medical advice that prioritizing health recovery is essential. The sudden news has caused significant disappointment among fans who were eagerly awaiting the performance.

Agency Source Music announced the news of SAKURA's absence via official social media channels on the 21st. "On the morning of the 21st, local time in Paris, SAKURA showed poor physical condition, including sudden high fever symptoms, and received an opinion from local medical staff that she requires rest for the time being," the agency stated.

As a result, SAKURA was unable to participate in the 2026 LE SSERAFIM tour 'Pure Flow in Paris' scheduled for that day. The agency explained that the decision was made by comprehensively considering the medical opinion and the artist's current health status. Given that the news of her absence was delivered suddenly on the day of the performance, disappointment from fans is expected to follow.

This performance was part of LE SSERAFIM's first solo tour in Europe and was intended to be a meaningful occasion to meet fans in Paris directly. "As this is the first solo concert in Paris, we are sincerely sorry to deliver this sudden news to the fans who have been waiting for and looking forward to this performance," Source Music apologized to the fans.

The agency also emphasized that prioritizing SAKURA's health recovery is the main objective. "We will do our best for her rapid recovery and health management so that SAKURA can meet fans again in good health," Source Music said. Since medical professionals have advised that rest is necessary for the time being, it appears the focus will be on sufficient recovery rather than strenuous activities.

LE SSERAFIM began their first European tour on the 16th, starting with a performance in London, United Kingdom. While the tour continues to meet fans across Europe, SAKURA's sudden health issue has created a variable for the Paris performance. However, as this absence was a decision made in consideration of her health status, attention is focused on whether SAKURA will recover sufficiently to return to the stage.
