Pop star Fujii Kaze has become the latest Japanese act to cancel a show in Hong Kong, which was scheduled as part of his world tour this year.
Without offering a reason, Kaze’s official website on Tuesday stated: “Show in Hong Kong has been cancelled”.
Hong Kong was originally listed as one of the stops in his “Prema World Tour” last year.

Seoul has been added for one show early next year following the cancellation of the Hong Kong leg.
