KBS Cancels JYJ’s Broadcast appearance for ‘N7W’ event

In May, it was announced that JYJ would be the honorary ambassadors for Jeju Island as part of the ‘New Seven Wonders’ initiative and KBS was scheduled to air a TV special on it to promote Jeju Island for candidacy. However, KBS recently sent a notice to JYJ cancelling their appearance on the show.
On July 16th, C-JeS Entertainment, JYJ’s management agency, posted on their homepage: “Although JYJ was looking forward to the special ‘N7W‘ broadcast on the 20th as Jeju Island’s ambassadors, we received a cancellation notice today… We hope that the fans be patient with us and understand this sudden cancellation; after we discover why they were pulled, we will quickly post another bulletin.”
A JYJ official also stated, “With the broadcast only four days away, we suddenly received a notice of cancellation. We already got the plane tickets and even received a cue sheet. Additionally, two of the members are currently filming a drama and had already made arrangements to open up their schedule for this show. When the members heard the news, they couldn’t hide their upset feelings.”
The same official later added, “Furthermore, fans enthusiastically participated in voting for Jeju Island because of JYJ’s planned appearance. International fans also showed their dedication by participating, and in fact, there are fans coming in from Japan to see JYJ perform on the 20th. Their [KBS's] sudden notification – without any reason – makes the situation unfortunate and disappointing… This program is not like any regular entertainment show either. We prepared this with our desire to share how great the nation is; however, because they gave us a unilateral notice without any particular reason, we are slowly losing our strength because we feel so apologetic to our fans.”
JYJ was chosen to be the ambassadors for Jeju Island because of their popularity worldwide in hopes that they would bring in more international votes.
I wonder what KBS’ reasons for cancelling their appearance was. I really hope it doesn’t have to do with their lawsuit with SM Entertainment and they have a legitimate reason… Either way it’s 4 days before the event! Ridiculous.
