    Hello,

    This is S2 Entertainment.

    We regret to inform you that due to unforeseen circumstances, we have encountered difficulties in proceeding with the 2024 KISS OF LIFE 1st WORLD TOUR [KISS ROAD] performance in Toronto. As a result, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the event.

    We sincerely apologize to all the fans who were looking forward to the performance for delivering such disappointing news.

    Tickets purchased will be fully refunded.

    We hope to meet you again in Toronto as soon as possible, and we will do our best to bring you an even more amazing performance in the future.

    Thank you.

    1. Wow I didn't know this was possible


    2. What???


    3. Usually, when the rental fee is too high compared to the ticket sales, they announce it in this way and cancel the performance, which is quite common at North American concerts. Some Korean singers did the same thing in LA not long ago


    4. I feel like the company's way of working is problematic. The fans must be so pissed


    5. I'm sure there are fans who travelled or took days off for this, the way they do it the day of is so unmannerly..


    6. They're in the middle of their tour but aren't they almost done..? The fans must've been waiting for so long, what a shame ㅠㅜㅠ


    7. There are people from Korea who flew there and even booked hotels no...? I'd be so pissed


    8. Wow I live in Toronto and I didn't know this can happen


    9. How can they cancel the day of because of ticketing issues?


    10. Was it a visa issue?

    If it was a visa issue, they should have had all of this sorted long before the show. Cancelling the day of is incredibly amateur.

    If Canada is like Australia, they may sometimes cancel visa when people are literally at the airport.


    Although Australia cancels visas on character grounds (suck shit Candace Owens), so I doubt Natty got it for that.


    Unless throwing too much ass is a character issue.

    It's possible to actually get caught up on bureaucratic stuff by accident.


    Let's say you are coming to Australia to perform a pop concert.


    You think you need Visa Subclass 400 (Temporary Short Stay Entertainment Work). So you do the paperwork for it, get it.


    Get to the border, they ask reason for the stay. "Performing a concert".


    No - that's actually Visa Subclass 408, with slightly different requirements. Visa gets rejected and you have to re-apply for a 408. Happens fairly often. There are experts to help with this stuff, but it's still possible to get tripped up. Especially with a smaller label with not as many professional staff, nor that Canada is widely visited in the Kpop touring industry.


    So whilst not knowing the details, considering how much rarer it is for kpop accts to go to Canada, it's entirely possible they got tripped up in paperwork, thought it was all in order, only to be found out they'd made some bureaucratic mistake and it caused a delay. The fact they're going there a few days later kind of also points to that fact.

    Add to that the fact that Natyy travels on a Thai passport, which isn't a particularly "powerful" passport.

    Yeah. For (G)I-DLE, there's been a few instances of Yuqi (with a Chinese Passport) having to be delayed a bit due to Visa issues, Lucky for Idle it was returning to Korea (via Mexico I think) but certain passports are trickier.


    Certainly very possible to have some forms overlooked thinking it's uniform when it may not be for certain countries.


    Trolls in here trying to troll about low ticket sales are just smooth brained. Like this dude "Purnhub" saying obviously because of ticket sales, clearly just a mouth breathing troglodyte.

    They are also scheduled for Friday in Montreal, If that goes through with Toronto cancelled people aren't gonna be happy. With the way that concerts work in Canada people will fly across the country to see groups (4-6 hour flights). Hopefully they cancel Montreal today if they need to really no winning in this situation.

    If they can do Montreal, why the everloving fuck would they cancel it? Toronto was out of their control


    Just because?


    Pull ya bloody head in.

    I was saying if the Visa issue was going to effect all of the Canadian stops they should cancel maybe a day ahead instead of 8 hours ahead, if the Visa issue is dealt with of course they should continue, Didn't think I'd have to explain something that obvious.
