According to reports, Jackson had been showing signs of bad health during a fan meet on March 11. A Taiwanese news outlet said he coughed on stage and looked pale, while one fan reportedly saw him throwing up while he wasn’t on stage.

JYP Entertainment explained, “Jackson’s health suddenly worsened at the fan meet on March 11. We judged that it would be difficult for him to continue with the event, so he had to sit out the last event, which was a hi-touch session. He is currently resting and concentrating on getting his health back to normal.”

Earlier, it was reported that GOT7 member Jackson’s health had taken a turn for the worse during a fan meeting on March 11.

On March 13, GOT7’s management agency, JYP Entertainment, released a statement on GOT7’s official fan site about Jackson saying, “Jackson will not be participating in any scheduled activities from now until March 19. While a medical examination did not reveal anything out of the ordinary, Jackson will be taking a short break to focus on his health.”

The statement continued, “We apologize to any fans who were worried about Jackson and we will work our hardest to make sure Jackson returns to fans in good health.”

this was bound to happen with his nonstop schedules
i hate that companies only take action when the artist's health starts deteriorating and they don't take precautionary measures instead

I hope he gets better after resting for a week. He really needs a proper vacation. Like, a month at home with his parents, doing nothing, sleeping in late and eating proper meals.

jeez, i hope it's just a flu or a bug, nothing actually really serious D;

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought he was kinda open about his less than stellar health condition, no? Or maybe I was projecting cause I can't recall specific moments.

idk actually lol i know he's really into healthy eating and green tea and some type of toothpaste, all organic or something but his actual health, not really sure...:/

I did find this (https://youtu.be/FF5RIGiOKpA?t=1m18s) but I'm not sure if it was for that specific day or a general situation.

He said he started with the organic food because in his early debut days he was sick all the time because of stress and often ended up in the hospital for IV injections.

Acording to him, he has been way better since then, but I don't know. He got better in hiding it to me.

Just cancel this comeback altogether, call it a buzz era or w/e

From what I saw on Twitter, he actually wasn't supposed to be at the fan meeting or something because he was already sick but did the fansign anyway and I think people were saying he actually threw up on stage. There were also rumors that he passed out backstage and that's when he got taken to the hospital :(

I'm glad they're letting him rest for a week but I hope he's actually recovered in time to rejoin promotions and they don't pull a Youngjae and shove him out onstage when he still doesn't feel well.

Omg D: Jackson needs to think about himself more, he's just too accommodating/considerate towards other people. They're not exactly managing him properly either. He's got so many solo gigs in China and he's been moving around with the rest of Got7 too for their international promos...The boys, and Jackson especially, need to get some proper rest.

let jackson rest 2k17

Oh man. I hope he takes care of himself.

I am worried that one day he'll start suffering from something more serious if JYP doesn't stop overworking him/putting pressure on him.

He may be eating well and be generally healthy but if he isn't given adequate time to take care of himself in the first place (enough sleep, time to recuperate from previous illnesses etc.) then he'll be stuck in a horrible health cycle which may gradually get worse.

This is the impending foolishness I knew was coming. It seems serious though, because Sungjae looked quite solemn when mentioning it at their fanmeet.

If Jackson was just regular sick, would he have looked that worried?

[shazz-chan.livejournal.com]

Ah, Jackson, I always worry that he's being overworked, and I know his mentality is to not take time off and carry on working too :/ It's a shame idols often only get rest when they're sick or injured....

For him to take so long off of comebacks worries me because if it wasn't a big deal surely he wouldn't have to take much off, right? I hope he rests well :(
