On the day of the performance, singer Heize's music festival performance was canceled due to sound issues.
On the 8th, the agency P NATION apologized through its official social media for the cancellation of Heize's stage at '2025 MyK FESTA in Gyeongju,' which was set to take place on the 7th.
P NATION stated, "The Heize performance scheduled for the '2025 MyK FESTA in Gyeongju' on the 7th was canceled due to a malfunction of the local performance team's sound system and equipment."
It continued, "The artist arrived locally the day before the performance and also arrived on-site at 4 p.m. on the day of the performance to prepare for the performance to the best of her ability. However, due to issues with the local performance team's sound system on the day of the performance, the scheduled 7 p.m. rehearsal (sound check) was not possible. The organizing committee decided that, despite ongoing efforts on-site to overcome this challenge, the severe malfunction of the sound equipment made the performance difficult to proceed."
P NATION added, "As a result, we regrettably inform you that the performance had to be canceled, and we sincerely apologize to the fans who came to the venue. We thank everyone who was looking forward to Heize's performance and ask for your generous understanding. We will do our best to prevent such an incident from happening again."
'2025 MyK FESTA in Gyeongju' is a K-pop music festival taking place over two days from the 7th until today (the 8th) at the Gyeongju Arts Center. Heize was scheduled to take the stage as the final headliner on the first day, the 7th, but it was canceled just over an hour before the event. In response, Heize directly expressed her regrets through her personal social media and apologized to her fans.
Next is the full statement from P NATION.
Hello, this is P NATION.
First of all, we deeply apologize for causing concern to the fans who cherish Heize. The performance scheduled for June 7 at '2025 MyK FESTA in Gyeongju' was canceled due to a malfunction of the local performance team's sound system and equipment.
The artist arrived locally the day before the performance and, on the day of the performance, also arrived on-site at 4 p.m. to prepare for the performance to the best of her ability. However, due to issues with the local performance team's sound system on the day of the performance, the scheduled 7 p.m. rehearsal (sound check) was not possible. The artist made continuous efforts on-site to overcome this challenge, but the organizing committee determined that the severe malfunction of the sound equipment made it difficult to proceed with the performance.
As a result, we inform you that the performance had to be regrettably canceled and sincerely apologize to the fans who came to the venue.
We thank everyone who was looking forward to Heize's performance and ask for your generous understanding. P NATION will also do its best to prevent such an incident from happening again.
