A Britain's Got Talent favourite is still in hospital after a terrifying injury sustained during the grand finale of this year's competition. A performer from the Ssaulabi Performance Troupe was whisked away to hospital just as the ITV talent show wrapped up earlier this month.
The injury reportedly occurred during a daring aerial stunt in the live final, which ended with vocalist Sydnie Christmas taking the 2024 title. The mishap unfolded when two members of the Korean martial arts ensemble accidentally crashed into each other mid-air instead of breaking a wooden block.
Alesha Dixon, one of the judges, spotted one of the troupe members hobbling off stage after their act. It has now emerged that the injured performer remains in hospital, undergoing rehabilitation to walk once more. On Chanwoo Jeong's Instagram, fans saw the injured star in his hospital bed at St Mary's Hospital in London, his legs swathed in bandages while he worked on stretching exercises with a resistance band.
Another photo showed him bravely standing with the aid of a walker, taking tentative steps alongside a healthcare worker. In an emotional Instagram update last week, the South Korean artist expressed his feelings about the incident. He wrote: "I never imagined that I would actually get hurt while doing the obstacle course, but I think I got hurt unintentionally as my already severe fatigue accumulated so much.
On the one hand, I'm so sorry, and on the other hand, I'm grateful. And I'm grateful to my professors, coaches, classmates, and juniors for helping and worrying about me. It's true that I was hurt badly, but I'll hold on!”.
