SecondUpdate.com – A member of K-pop boy group ATEEZ, Choi San, has been confirmed to miss the group’s concert held in Melbourne, Australia, on Monday (March 2).

San’s absence was caused by travel difficulties following the cancellation of several international flights.

The information was officially announced by KQ Entertainment, ATEEZ’s management agency. In its statement, the agency explained that San was unable to arrive on time due to global conditions affecting flight routes.

San was originally scheduled to perform alongside the other members as part of the group’s world tour, World Tour 2026 (In Your Fantasy). However, the plan was disrupted by rising tensions in the conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran, which led to the cancellation of multiple international flights.

Before heading to Australia, San was known to be in Milan, Italy, to attend Milan Fashion Week. He was invited as a guest by the renowned fashion house Dolce & Gabbana.

After completing his schedule there, San was supposed to fly directly to Melbourne. However, unstable flight conditions prevented him from arriving as planned. Meanwhile, the other ATEEZ members had already arrived at the concert venue.

Despite missing the first day, the agency stated that San is still making efforts to travel to Australia as soon as possible. He is expected to join and perform at the second-day concert scheduled for Tuesday (March 3).

KQ Entertainment also issued an apology to fans for the unexpected situation.

Until now, fans have continued to wait for further updates regarding San’s appearance at upcoming concerts, while hoping that international travel conditions will soon improve so that the rest of ATEEZ’s tour can proceed smoothly.
