Fans spammed Twitter with get-well-soon wishes for ITZY’s Yuna after JYP Entertainment announced that the idol would not be participating in a fansign due to health issues on January 31, 2023.
The fansign in question was an in-person event "The 2nd Fan Meeting, ITZY MIDZY! Let's Fly" that was scheduled for the night of the same day, January 31. However, the agency announced that the remaining four members, Yeji, Lia, Ryujin, and Chaeryoung would be participating in the event as per the original plan.
The agency did not detail the health issues faced by Yuna but only informed fans about the change in schedule. Yuna’s fansign was also postponed so that the idol could meet fans at a later date. ITZY’s fans were naturally sad to hear the news and began sending wishes for a speedy recovery to the idol.
