What the agency confirmed

According to SOURCE MUSIC, Sakura developed symptoms including a sudden high fever and physical fatigue. Local medical professionals advised her to rest and recover for the time being. Taking that advice and her condition into account, the agency decided she would not join the Paris date, listed as the 2026 LE SSERAFIM TOUR 'PUREFLOW' IN PARIS. The announcement did not address how the setlist would be adjusted. ^[1]

A first solo show in Paris

The agency noted that this is the group's first solo concert in Paris, and it apologized to fans who had been waiting for the performance. Paris is one stop on the European leg of the tour, which opened at The O2 Arena in London on October 16 after tickets for that show sold out and extra seats were added. The tour also goes to Amsterdam, Copenhagen and Berlin, and it is the group's first tour in the region. No information has been released about Sakura's participation in later dates. ^[1][2]

Where the tour stands

The European dates follow a North American run in which the group sold out eight of nine cities, ending in Newark, New Jersey. After the five European cities, the group is due to tour Southeast Asia through early December. The tour coincides with the single "Made My Night," which had topped Japan's Oricon Daily Single Ranking on the day of its Japanese release. Its title track has been part of the concert set list since the US leg began in mid-September. ^[3][4][5]

Why it matters for fans

A member's absence from a debut show in a new city affects ticket holders directly, and the agency's statement is the confirmed account of the situation. LE SSERAFIM is a five-member group, and Sakura Miyawaki is one of its members, alongside Kim Chaewon, Huh Yun-jin, Hong Eun-chae and Kazuha Nakamura. ^[6][1]
