[NOTICE] [Asia Tour] ‘BLUE STORM in Jakarta’ Cancelled

Around late morning Korea Time, FNC released an official notice on the CNBLUE website (http://cnblue.co.kr) in regards to the [Asia Tour] ‘BLUE STORM’ scheduled to have a stop in Jakarta this weekend.  The notice iterated that the concert is now cancelled, due to still unresolved conflicts with the event organizer in Indonesia.

Starlight Indonesia also made their official statement on this matter.

Here is the translation of the full notice found on the CNBLUE website:

FNC MUSIC

SEOUL (11.23.2011)

This is FNC MUSIC.

CNBLUE Asia Tour Concert [BLUE STORM] in Indonesia was supposed to have been this November 26, 2011.  But it has to be cancelled.

The issue was due to a continued breach of contract on the part of the Indonesian event organizer.  Their lack of preparation of concert and promotion created an atmosphere of distrust, and we, FNC, had repeated requested them to address this.  But our requests were not heard, hence led to our decision to cancel the concert.

We have tried our best not to reach this decision as we thought of the fans waiting for us in Indonesia. We know that decision disappointed CNBLUE fans, and thus, we sincerely apologize to all of you.

We are sorry to all the fans who anticipated the CNBLUE concert in Indonesia.

Once we resolve the problem with local event organizing company, we promise to once again plan on a concert in Indonesia.

For those whose feelings we may have with the continuous cancellation of concerts recently, once again we deeply apologize.

Thank you.

As we want to present both sides of the story, we also have the official notice that was made by Starlight Indonesia, the event organizer.

Starlight Management

JAKARTA, Indonesia (11.23.2011)

CNBLUE 2011 Asia Tour Concert “Bluestorm in Jakarta”, the first concert by CNBLUE,  scheduled to be held in Jakarta, November 26th 2011 at JITEC Mangga Dua Square, is finally confirmed to be cancelled. The reason behind the cancellation, according to FNC Music, is due to the inability of the promotor to reach perfection on preparation of the concert.

Since the beginning of the preparation, Starlight Management Indonesia already tried to fulfill the terms and requests from FNC.  From the location, promotions, until the productions. Just like we had announced in our press conference, the changes in venue from Skenoo Hall, Gandaria City to JITEC Mangga Dua Square three weeks ago was a straight request from FNC.

We have tried our best to continue the concert by trying to fulfill the conditions and options that have been given until three days before the concert. But at the end FNC management decided to halt all concert preparations.  At this condition, FNC management decided to cancel the CNBLUE concert in Jakarta.

As the promoter, event-organizer, we deeply apologize because of this. Especially to the people who have been at loss morally and materially, especially to the fans, media partners and also the sponsorship partners.

We are fully responsible for all the ticket buyers. Notice about the refund mechanism will be made as soon as possible.
