Recently, the cancellation of G-Dragon (Big Bang)'s scheduled performance at Rajamangala National Stadium (Thailand) caused a stir.
G-Dragon's management company - Galaxy Corporation - caused controversy by announcing the cancellation of the concert less than a month before the event, without giving a specific reason.
Galaxy Corporation briefly said that the concert was postponed "due to unexpected situations".
In fact, the performance in Thailand has not yet sold out, so there is no problem with refunding tickets to the audience.
However, the sudden cancellation of the concert caused the plans and projects to welcome G-Dragon of the fan community in Thailand to collapse. Many fans also suffered financial losses because they bought air tickets and booked hotel rooms in Thailand.
Fans believe that Galaxy Corporation's failure to clearly explain the reason for the concert's cancellation is a " disrespectful" to the G-Dragon fan community.
After the company's announcement, fans sent trucks to Galaxy Corporation headquarters to protest the company's weak management and unprofessional tour management.
This is the first time a truck protest by G-Dragon fans has been held since he debuted as a member of YG Entertainment's Big Bang group in 2006.
After a wave of fierce criticism, on July 12, Galaxy Corporation issued an additional announcement on the reason for canceling the concert.
According to the company: The cancellation is a necessary decision due to the record heat and many cases of heatstroke in Thailand recently. In particular, the venue, Rajamangala National Stadium, is an outdoor space, so we are forced to prioritize the health and safety of fans.
At the same time, the company apologized: "We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience. Every decision is made with the highest priority being the safety of the audience. The performance schedule and replacement locations will be announced as soon as possible, avoiding hot weather and rainy season to ensure safety".
This is not the first time G-Dragon's concerts have encountered weather problems. At the opening concert for the "Übermensch" tour at Goyang Stadium (Korea) in March, the performance started more than 1 hour later due to strong winds and low temperatures.
G-Dragon's solo tour "Übermensch" has gone through the cities of Goyang (Korea), Tokyo (Japan), Santa Maria (Philippines), Osaka (Japan), Cao Cao (China), Sydney and Melbourne (Australia).
The male singer is currently holding 3 shows in Taiwan (China) from July 11-13. After that, the tour will continue to stop in many other cities such as Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), Jakarta (Indonesia), Newark, Las Vegas, Los Angeles (USA), Paris (France) ...
