The event organizer, JMC Entertainment, stated the reason of the sudden cancellation through their SNS accounts. They explained that it was due to the current political turmoil in Thailand that would affect the security of the groups and fans. They also mentioned that it'll be delayed until February with a new event. They made sure that ticket buyers will get their refunds.

However, anticipating KPOP fans assumed that it might be because of the poor tickets sales due to the continuous Kpop-related events in the country.

Meanwhile, the cancelled KBS Kpop World Festival, which was supposed to be attended by kpop artists like 2PM's Taecyeon and Wooyoung, SISTAR, EXO, 4MINUTE, VIXX, Henry, Miss A, BTOB, 9Muses, Boyfriend, 100%, C-Clown, BTS and Tiny-G is scheduled to happen on August 17 but unfortunately got cancelled.
