Following Jennie’s exit, Rosé took it upon herself to address the concerning situation. “It seems that we will be proceeding with the rest of the show without Jennie. However, we will try our best to fill the stage up for you guys, so don’t worry about that,” she told the crowd, simultaneously assuring them and expressing her own disappointment at Jennie’s absence.

We’re so sad we can’t have her with us today because she was so excited to be in Melbourne. And I’m sure she’s feeling really really upset backstage. But all our hearts go to her so that she feels better quickly. But most of all we’re just really really sad that we can’t enjoy this moment with her.
