During a pro baseball game in Seoul on Tuesday, a member of the South Korean girl group Ichillin' was struck by a foul ball while waiting for a performance.
The incident occurred at the Gocheok Sky Dome during a match between the Kiwoom Heroes and the KT Wiz. The singer, identified as Chowon, 19, was sitting with her bandmates in the bleachers when the ball hit her in the back of the head, briefly rendering her unconscious.
Following the incident, Chowon was taken to a nearby hospital for a check-up. Her agency, Kmet, issued a statement on Wednesday confirming her recovery and stating that she is currently in good health. The statement mentioned that no abnormalities were found during a detailed medical examination, with plans for additional tests later in the day.
The girl group, scheduled to perform during the cleaning break after the bottom of the fifth inning, had their performance canceled due to the incident. This occurrence adds to a series of incidents where baseball spectators have been injured by foul balls, including a 31-year-old woman struck during a match last June at the Gwangju-KIA Champions Field, as well as a 5-year-old child in another match at the same stadium within the same month.
