Xiaojuan said on the way to the concert on the 4th: "My parents came, in fact, the morning was grandma's funeral ceremony, but I couldn't participate in the whole funeral process, I wanted to be a filial person, but I was always busy with work, and I couldn't be better to my grandma, my favorite person is grandma, I'm sorry I didn't protect my parents well, I will become a daughter who works hard and can protect my family in the future."
When Xiaojuan couldn't hold back her tears and turned her back to the audience, Wei Juan, Minnie, Yuqi and Shu Hua all hugged each other in a circle for the first time to comfort each other, and Minnie couldn't help but shed tears and said, "Although our captain always looks strong, she is actually the same as us." Shuhua also said, "Grandma will be proud of you."
After the concert, Xiaojuan also uploaded a video of playing with her grandmother when she was a child on Instagram Story, and confessed emotionally: "My first friend, my grandma, obviously said that she was the best friend, but under the pretext of being busy with work, I couldn't accompany you through the last journey, I'm sorry, we will meet as friends of the same age in the next life, and be long-term friends, grandma, I love you."

In addition, at this concert, Xiaojuan SOLO performed "Is this bad b****** number?" and adapted the lyrics to "Who can stop me when the contract ends in November", which sparked speculation about the renewal of the contract. The company, Cube Entertainment, explained, "All members will be renewed next year, and the lyrics are just part of the performance."
In fact, starting with the Seoul concert on August 3 and 4, (G)I-DLE will start a global tour, which is already full until November, and will continue to sing in Hong Kong, Japan, United States, Taiwan, Thailand, Macau and Australia.
