Singer Taeyeon’s Tokyo, Japan concert has been finally canceled.

SM Entertainment, the agency, announced on the 29th, “We had previously informed you of the cancellation of the concert and had been considering various alternatives, but due to the difficulty in finding a concert hall that could accommodate an appropriate number of people and present a high-quality stage, we are ultimately announcing that the Tokyo concert has been canceled.”

He then apologized, saying, “We apologize for the delay in providing information as we were left open to various possibilities until the very end and took the time to find the best method.”

He added, “All tickets purchased will be refunded in full.Please check the My Page and email of the place of purchase by April 30.”

Taeyeon was scheduled to hold a solo concert in Tokyo’s Ariake on April 19th and 20th.

However, the concert was suddenly canceled two days before.The agency explained the reason as, “The equipment did not arrive in Japan,” and Taeyeon added, “It feels like my concert, which was created with everyone’s hard work and anticipation, was stolen and disappeared in an instant.”

Taeyeon’s global fan union also added their voices, pointing out, “We demand feedback on the unilateral and insincere cancellation notice two days before the Japanese concert.The cancellation was announced just two days before the concert, without prior notice, even though there was a possibility of the concert being canceled.”

Taeyeon, who is currently on an Asia tour, will continue her performance at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on May 3rd and 4th.
