JAKARTA - Lee Seung Gi is on a New Dreamer's Dream world tour in Asia. He is currently continuing his concert to the United States which has been his first visit since his debut.

Unfortunately, this concert has actually drawn controversy after holding a concert in Atlanta, precisely at the fire Department of Energy Performing Arts Center. Reportedly, one of the restaurants has sponsored the concert and the actor is scheduled to visit the restaurant.

However, Lee Seung Gi did not visit the restaurant according to the initial agreement, his agency HUMANMADE explained that the cancellation of the advertisement made by the restaurant seemed to have a different event at the restaurant.

"We want to provide your information regarding the controversy. HUMANMADE and Lee Seung Gi never agreed to a fan meeting held at the restaurant," said HUMANMADE.

The agreement made with the restaurant was made by a local agency, but Lee Seung Gi did not know the details of the contract between them.

"We regret reports trying to harm artists by labeling some of the staff and people who attended the restaurant that day as Koreans living in the United States," continued HUMANMADE.

Lee Seung Gi is always grateful to fans who come to his concert and fans who support him. Our agency and Lee Seung Gi will work hard to overcome misunderstandings with fans. Thank you," he said again.

HUMANMADE also briefly explained that they had an oral agreement to visit the restaurant. However, when they were about to go to Atlanta, they faced a storm on the way so they didn't arrive on time.

"We arrived after 10 pm, and we were unable to visit the restaurant due to the artist's health condition," they said.

The agency said the artist's health condition was their top priority, so they chose to focus on concerts. They also explained that Lee Seung Gi did not want the concert audience to be disappointed with his performance.

In addition to restaurant visits, Lee Seung Gi also canceled a concert in New York which was scheduled for Saturday, September 2. They accused the concert location of being inadequate to hold Lee Seung Gi's inaugural concert.
