VIDEO Korean rock star calls off Carnegie Hall concert after visa denial

By Park Si-soo

South Korean rock star Jeon In-kwon cancelled his concert at New York’s Carnegie Hall after the U.S. government denied him a visa.

Jeon’s concert was scheduled for July 1 to mark the 30th anniversary of his debut. He announced the cancelation on June 27.

“Jeon submitted all required documents to the U.S. embassy to have a visa, but the embassy didn’t issue a visa for unclear reasons,” his agency Two Men Group said. “We feel sorry and apologize to his fans for breaking the promise.”

The agency said it will give ticket refunds.
