- She gets sick every time there's an important schedule.
- The flu is really bad these days. I hope you get some rest and get better soon.
- I was worried about her condition because she left the country the day after the Tokyo Dome performance. Aeri, don't be sick.
- The concert tour starts again on the 13th ㅠ
- Don't be sick, rest well and get better soon ㅠㅠ
- This is upsetting. Her condition got worse because she went to a hot country after being in a cold country.
- She gets sick often ㅠㅠ
