IU cancels her 2022 Seoul Olympic Stadium Concert

Quote from bartkun

wait a second

they allowed other artists to do concerts

but they've didn't allow IU to do so?

wtf...

It says IU requested, no?

Any idea why they chose not to push through?

Oh no understandable, but still sad for the fans and her and her team

Probably because of the current Covid-19 spike in South Korea

I just checked and their reported cases yesterday is 95K, with a new peak last Feb. 18 with 109K cases.

I guess if this continues in the next few weeks, offline events will get cancelled again.

Oh no

I hope the situation gets better.

It can take weeks or months before we see downward trend.
Even with the high vaccination rate of SK, there's a lot of people of getting sick because of how contagious the new variant is.

Is it a new variant that's different from the initial Omicron?

They know KPop's Least Useful Singer is not conducive for the promotion of Kpop

Did she shoot her recent documentary in Jamsil?

Hope she'll still be able to hold a concert later this year (maybe in Sept?) after the wave dies down.

we stan a safety queen around here!
