Kanye West’s South Korea Concert Canceled Amid Controversy

Kanye West’s highly anticipated concert in South Korea, scheduled for May 31 at Incheon’s Munhak Stadium, has been officially canceled. The event organizers, South Korean e-commerce company Coupang and ticket outlet Interpark, announced the decision on Monday, citing “recent controversies involving the artist”.

The cancellation follows backlash over West’s latest song, *Heil Hitler*, which has been widely criticized for its glorification of the Nazi leader. The track was swiftly removed from major streaming platforms, including Spotify and SoundCloud, but continued to circulate on social media. Additionally, West’s recent public appearances, including an interview where he wore a Ku Klux Klan outfit, have further fueled outrage.

In response to the controversy, Coupang has also suspended the sale of Yeezy merchandise, effective May 19. All purchased tickets for the concert will be fully refunded.

West has faced repeated criticism for his inflammatory remarks and actions, leading to severed partnerships with major brands such as Adidas, GAP, and Balenciaga in recent years. The cancellation of his South Korea concert marks another significant fallout from his ongoing controversies.
