Psy apologizes for Gwangju concert venue booking confusion

Singer Psy has issued an apology for the venue booking issues surrounding his upcoming "Summer Swag 2026" concert in Gwangju. The artist took to social media to explain the situation, which caused confusion among fans and organizers.

Psy clarified that the booking process for provincial concerts typically involves local promoters proposing venues to his agency, P Nation. In this instance, the Gwangju promoter informed P Nation that the Gwangju World Cup Stadium had been secured, a confirmation that later turned out to be inaccurate. This led to the premature announcement of the venue.

"I am very upset," Psy wrote in response to a fan's encouraging comment. He acknowledged the distress caused by the mix-up and assured that his team would diligently search for an alternative venue. Psy pledged to implement more thorough review processes for future venue proposals to prevent similar incidents.
