Girl group 2NE1's year-end concert has been cancelled over a lack of songs to perform, according to their producer on Thursday.
Yang Hyun-suk wrote on the official website of his agency YG Entertainment that 2NE1 will not be able to hold their concert which was scheduled for December 30 and 31."We had even managed to borrow a concert venue despite tough competition for it, so we too are sorry to see this happen but we will focus on making a good album for now," Yang apologized.
He added, however, that the four-member group are "preparing a surprise show" set for November 20 but will not disclose the details until a day before the event.
2NE1 took the music industry by storm immediately following their debut in July, sweeping charts with their singles "Lollipop", "Fire" and "I Don't Care" and are preparing to release a full-length album early next year.
