Pop star Fujii Kaze has become the latest Japanese act to cancel a show in Hong Kong, scheduled as part of his world tour this year. His official website stated on Tuesday: “Show in Hong Kong has been cancelled”, without offering a reason. Hong Kong was originally listed as one of the stops in his “Prema World Tour” last year.
The tour kicks off in October and will cover Asia, Europe and North America, with Asian dates confirmed for Kaohsiung, Fukuoka, Osaka, Tokyo, Bangkok and Seoul. Seoul has been added for one show early next year following the cancellation of the Hong Kong leg. Dates for shows in Cologne, London, Paris and six North American cities have not yet been announced.
Kaze, 28, is a singer-songwriter from Okayama who has built one of the most notable careers among Reiwa-era Japanese artists, moving from YouTube piano covers to viral global hits and arena tours.
