Despite previous reports of boy group BIGBANG’s guerrilla concert, the event was ultimately canceled, to the disappointment of fans.

The following is the full official statement from YG Entertainment:

Hello. This is YG Entertainment.

We would like to notify you that BIGBANG’s guerrilla concert, which was scheduled for this week, has ultimately been canceled.

While coming up with ideas for various commemorative events in celebration of BIGBANG’s tenth anniversary since debuting, we had planned on holding a surprise guerrilla concert, but the news ended up spreading to the media and external entities in the process of reserving a location.

YG Entertainment and the BIGBANG members worried a great deal after the news of the surprise event broke, due to safety concerns of a large number of fans crowding to get to the guerrilla concert, which became as if it was announced in advance.

After long and hard consideration, YG Entertainment and BIGBANG would like to let you know that we are canceling the guerrilla concert and are coming up with other ideas to enjoy the 10th anniversary with fans as safely as possible.


Soompi, Tvreport

Right? You have to wonder if it's on purpose at this point.

To be honest, I think it's a wise idea to cancel it. It's dumb to think of it in the first place and announce it without thinking of the consequences. But ultimately, safety should be the priority.

a guerilla concert for Big Bang in general was a bad idea - announcing that it would happened created a frenzy and fears of safety but if they hadn't announced it, and did a true surprise guerilla concert, who knows what could have happened? they could have had crushing and endangered the public as well as fans.

At this point cancelling is the better option for everybody's safety, but whoever thought it was a good idea in the first place is an idiot.

This was a bad idea from the start. I mean this is BigBang we're talking about.

But lol no one is surprised.

So I wonder what they're trying to distract people from by drumming up all this fake fuss. Cause we all knew this "surprise" concert was NEVER going to happen.

We all knew it wasn't safe from the beginning but I hope they can do something like it bc it would be a real cool way to celebrate the 10th anniversary.

Can't say I didn't see it coming; feel bad for the folks who got their hopes up or nothing. :/ Can anyone confirm that YGE actually has a team running their business? B/c at this point I'm inclined to believe its just Yang Hyun Suk and a team of monkeys trained to read crystal balls and deliver vague prophecies.

Hands down the best thing I've read all day.

if i was a big bang fan i would be mad for giving those kind of news like .... a joke?? at this point sounds like a joke

but in the other hand safety was a big concert when i first knew about this, maybe they are really preventing some kind of tragedy and they are just admiting on time they can handle this events

I feel kinda bad for Big Bang, they probably would've enjoyed performing at a real guerilla concert :/ Save it for when some of them sneak out of the army on leave I guess.
