TOP's album exhibition cancelled after applications hit just 25% of target following NANA relationship reveal
TOP's fan-organized exhibition for his solo album '다중관점' is cancelled. Reservation cancellations dropped attendance to a quarter of the 300-person target.
Exhibition pulled three weeks before opening
TOP's fan-organized exhibition OFF GRID : NEW GROUND, scheduled for October 31 to November 1, has been cancelled. The event was built around his first solo regular album 다중관점. Each of the album's 11 tracks would have been reinterpreted through a distinct concept and physical space, letting attendees experience the music's stories and emotions directly.
Organizers planned for 300 visitors across two days. Applications arrived at roughly 25% of that figure. They kept dropping. Venue rental contracts were already signed and paid for, but a steady stream of reservation cancellations made it impossible to continue.
The fan page behind the event didn't mince words. "As this is an exhibition we have prepared for a long time, this decision is very regrettable and weighs heavily on us," the statement read. They apologized directly to everyone who had booked a slot.
The timing, and what preceded it
The collapse in interest follows TOP's October 2 confirmation that he is in a relationship with NANA. The two first connected through a music video shoot and became a couple in June. The exhibition cancellation notice came days after that announcement, with applications already well below what was needed to run the event.
Venue costs are gone. Organizers absorbed them rather than proceed with a near-empty show.
