SinB danced on wearing sneakers alone in last inkigayo. because a knee injury.
They have Asian tour schedule after this stage, and SinB didn't dance on this stage to maintain her condition.
And after this stage, the concert in Singapore has been completed wonderfully.
Of course, her knees are fine.
