Fans are concerned about BLACKPINK’s Jisoo after a netizen pointed out a swollen lymph node on her neck at the BORN PINK Seoul Day 2 concert on October 29, 2022.
The Snowdrop actress was last seen in a similar condition during the In Your Area World Tour in early 2019 and late 2020.
On a Pann Nate blog that has now been viewed over 200k times, a netizen posted screenshots of Jisoo’s swollen lymph nodes. The anonymous poster’s blog included photos from the recent BORN PINK concert and past shows. Pann Nate is one of the most popular South Korean online forums.
Netizens took to Twitter, as several of them talked about their own understanding of how lymph nodes can swell and what treatment the idol might need.
Fans notice the re-emergence of swollen lymph nodes on BLACKPINK’s Jisoo’s neck
Fans of BLACKPINK’s Jisoo have been voicing their concern for the idol’s health ever since she was spotted with swollen lymph nodes on October 29. It was clearly visible in a closeup fancam of her performance on Day 2 of the BORN PINK concert in Seoul. The video had over 108.8k views and went viral on the BLINK side of Twitter.
When a person has a swollen lymph node, they may experience fatigue, coughing, fever, chills, sweating, and a runny nose. While swelling is common and treatable, it can sometimes be extremely painful. The lymph node inflammation can also be caused by cancer, according to Healthline.
As per Healthline:
“Lymph nodes store white blood cells, which are responsible for killing invading organisms. They act like a military checkpoint. When bacteria, viruses, and abnormal or diseased cells pass through the lymph channels, they’re stopped at the lymph node. When faced with infection or illness, the lymph nodes accumulate debris, such as bacteria and dead or diseased cells.”
Fans worried about BLACKPINK’s Jisoo commented on Twitter, hoping that YG Entertainment takes better care of their artist. Considering the quartet are currently in the US for their world tour, BLINKs hoped that the idol does not exhaust herself.
