BEAST apologizes to fans for canceling tour stops in Brazil and the UK

[unreal.livejournal.com]

Cube United has uploaded two videos of BEAST to their official Facebook page as apologies for canceling stops on their "BEAUTIFUL SHOW" tour in Brazil and the UK, two countries they previously visited with the rest of their agency. Although the group speaks in Korean, the page posted English translations of their dialogue.

Cube Entertainment announced in December 2011 that BEAST would embark on a world tour in February 2012, beginning in Seoul and eventually hitting Europe, Asia, and North America. Without the stops in Brazil and England, the tour will now include 19 cities in 12 countries, including Berlin, Germany on February 12th.

BEAST recently released a new digital single, "I Knew It" and intends to release a new single each month. Watch their apology videos below:

ALL] So~BEAST! Hello, We are BEAST
[Junhyung] I am very sorry to tell you this…knowing fans are waiting for us in the UK…
Unfortunately, BEAST won’t be able to visit the country, this time around.
[Dongwoon] We really wanted to do a show there.
[Junhyung] This doesn’t mean that we will never visit the country again, right?
[Dongwoon] Correct!
[Junhyung] I am sure that there will be another opportunity for us to visit the country in the future

[ALL] So~BEAST! Hello, we are BEAST

low ticket sales i guess? that sux for anyone who was planning on going

[mysteory.livejournal.com]

Tickets haven't even gone on sale for those places yet.

[lachatagirl.livejournal.com]

lol so the cities they'd already visited didn't bother to buy tickets after seeing they were shit the first time

[devilsatin.livejournal.com]

cube has been srsly overestimating b2st's popularity lately

[cairistiona.livejournal.com]

They didn't even put them on sale.

[justhyuu.livejournal.com]

probably... when I went to the United CUBE concert here in Brazil I expected BEAST to really bring it but they were the worst performers of the night... Not that they sang off tune or something, but G.NA alone had more stage presence than BEAST

[honeebs.livejournal.com]

oh so sorry.
announce the other dates please.

[yukahoo.livejournal.com]

I've been been feeling a bit anxious about SM not releasing any dates for Suju's tour, but reading this... I guess it's good after all. If Suju were ever to cancel a concert, they would just never hear the end of it. But then again, we'll see if they ever make it out of Asia after all.

Poor Beautys (Beauties?) though. They must be devastated.

I appreciate the aggressiveness with which Cube is promoting Beast, but... I just hope they're not biting off more than they can chew.

Just. Come. To. Paris.

[kiwilovekiwi.livejournal.com]

There's only set dates for these listed: Japan, Seoul, Germany, Singapore, Shanghai, and Taiwan. Not sure about Malaysia.

i was expecting cube to cancel at least one of the concerts. i guess the expenses have gotten too big, so they had to cancel some.

[ari-meh.livejournal.com]

awh dongwoonie! feliz ano novo to you too :3

[cairistiona.livejournal.com]

But why would only two places be stopped? They're still going everywhere else. And they've been before.

[brianathebard.livejournal.com]

It's very different in every country, I remember JYJ had to give refunds and instead give a free concert for the US bc they didn't have a certain visa.

[cairistiona.livejournal.com]

I just wish they sounded more apologetic. :(

[lydzi.livejournal.com]

It means more sleep for them so... #shrugs#

[kiwilovekiwi.livejournal.com]

I know that the date for London coincide with the mbank in Paris and Germany so maybe that's one of the reason. Not sure about the Brazil one. Maybe visas and venue isues?

[miszmba.livejournal.com]

Kind of expected this. Still waiting for the FNC concert date to be confirmed. Also, JYP nation needs to stop in London too.

[aniloratka.livejournal.com]

Also, JYP nation needs to stop in London too.
yesss, but omg later, cuz I need to make some money

hey, you won ticets for this concert, right? :(

[miszmba.livejournal.com]

I'n hoping if ever it will be summer :D


Nope! It was the united cube concert in December.

[shiddex.livejournal.com]

fnc concert. :'D are you from the US? so jelly FTi and CNB are performing in LA.

[miszmba.livejournal.com]

Nope, UK. FNC are supposed to be having a concert in London in the first half of this year, but it hasn't been confirmed, I don't think.

[kmrawr.livejournal.com]

this whole world tour thing kind of scares me. i'm a huge fan of beast but still think they're not ready yet.

[streetliights.livejournal.com]

I'm not surprised that these two concerts were cancelled. I have a feeling that their New York (only because I have a feeling that they will have a problem booking a venue in New York considering it's so expensive), and San Francisco (because they will most likely do LA so there's no need for SF concert too) concerts will be cancelled too...they'll probably only end up doing the LA concert tbh. It's always the same for these kpop concerts lol They announce all these different locations to gain excitement/exposure/garner publicity and then slowly cancel each one until 1 or 2 are left over.
