BTS Jin to Limit Movement at 'Permission to Dance On Stage' Concert in Las Vegas Due to Hand Injury
On April 8 KST, BTS' label Big Hit Music announced through the global fan community platform, Weverse, that member Jin will be limiting his movements during performances at the group's "Permission to Dance On Stage" concert in Las Vegas.
According to Big Hit Music and their previous statements dating back on March 19, Jin underwent surgery after suffering a partial damage to his tendon on his left index finger. He then received surgery to repair his damaged extensor, and subsequently received orders from his doctor to be careful of his movements.

In fact, Jin was spotted wearing a cast on his left hand when he departed for Las Vegas from Incheon International Aiport. Once again during the 64th Grammy Awards back on April 3, in which Jin refrained from doing BTS' extensive choreography for their "Butter" performance at the ceremony.
As a result, Jin will refrain from making vigorous movements that can stress his injury and lead to further damage, which can result in another surgery. With that, he will only be participating in a limited number of performances at the concert while focusing on recovery.

"Hello.
This is Big Hit Music.
We would like to inform you about the performance of BTS member Jin during the 'BTS PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE - LAS VEGAS' that is scheduled on April 8th, 9th, 15th, and 16th.
As we have previously informed on March 19, Jin underwent surgery to suture the extensor tendon of his left index figure due to some damage to his left hand. As there is a risk of re-operation when he is forced to move or stress his injury while recovering from the surgery, he was advised by the doctor that he should be careful in making vigorous movements.
Despite the artist's strong will to participate in the performance, we decided to limit Jin's movements during the four-day performance of 'BTS PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE - LAS VEGAS' according to the advise of the medical staff. Therefore, Jin will only participate in the choreography of some songs, and we ask for your understanding that [his] performances on stage may be limited.
We put the health and safety of our artists as our top priority, and we will do our best so that the BTS member can be with their fans in a healthy state.
Thank you."
We wish Jin a speedy recovery!
