• PURPLE KISS Confirms New Album Release in October

    Girl group PURPLE KISS is gearing up to make their mark in the busy October comeback scene!

    On October 1, Star News reported that PURPLE KISS—composed of members Na Go Eun, Dosie, Ireh, Yuki, Chaein, and Swan—is in the final stages of preparing for a new album set to drop this month.

    This new release comes about seven months after their last mini-album, BXX, which came out in March. That album received lots of praise for its fun concept that showcased the loyalty and friendship among the six members.

    Fans are excited to see what new music and performances the group will unveil with their upcoming album.

    Recently, PURPLE KISS also wrapped up their successful world tour, "PURPLE KISS 2024 BXX TOUR," which took them to 19 cities across the U.S., Canada, and Asia.

  • Taeyeon's Japan concert officially canceled and fans are heartbroken, says: "feels like the show was stolen" Here's Why

    Taeyeon’s Tokyo concert has sadly been canceled for good, and both she and her fans are feeling emotional.

    On April 29, SM Entertainment shared an official statement confirming that 'Taeyeon Concert – The ODD of LOVE in Japan' will not be happening anymore. The show was originally scheduled for April 19–20 at Ariake Arena in Tokyo.

    SM stated, “After the concert was postponed, we did our best to find another venue that could hold the same number of fans and still offer the best performance. But we couldn’t secure a proper venue, so we’ve decided to cancel the concert.”

    They also added, “We’re really sorry to all the fans who waited patiently. We checked every possible way to make it happen, but in the end, we had no choice but to make this difficult decision. Thank you for your understanding.”

    As for those who already bought tickets, SM said, “You’ll get a full refund. Please check the My Page section or your ticket email on April 30 for more info.”

    Taeyeon was supposed to hold her concert in Tokyo as part of her Asia tour. But earlier this month, the concert had to be canceled last-minute due to equipment delays.

    After hearing the news, Taeyeon shared her thoughts through her fan communication platform. She said, “When the news about the canceled concert came out, I was really worried about SONE. I didn’t even know what to say.”

    She added, “It felt like a concert that everyone worked hard on and looked forward to just disappeared. Like it was stolen from us. I don’t even know how to explain how empty and helpless I feel.”

    Fans have been showing their support, saying they’ll continue to wait for her return to Japan.
