On Wednesday, BoA performed at the Meiji Shrine in Tokyo for a fireworks display. According to Nikkan Sports, BoA had sprained her ankle during rehearsals and was also suffering from exhaustion. Still, she insisted on performing the complete program unchanged, against the advice of her staff. She was taken to a hospital immediately following the performance. The paper reports BoA as saying that her reason for persisting was her desire to see the first fireworks in Japan this year.
