Originally, Dok2 was planning on visiting a total of four cities, including Tokyo, Osaka, Busan, and Seoul. Unfortunately for unspecified reasons, the rapper canceled every show save for the one in Seoul.
Dok2 relayed this bad news via Instagram on March 14, writing, "Due to unavoidable internal affairs and the current local situation, the shows in Tokyo, Osaka, and Busan were canceled. We want to express our deepest apologies to all the fans who were looking forward to the concert, and we would be grateful if you would understood the circumstances with a generous mindset. For those who already purchased the tickets, we will inform you of the cancelation by contacting you individually, and proceed to refund all the money. We want to apologize once again to the people who reserved tickets to attend 'Dok2's 26th Birthday Celebration Concert,' and we will return to you with a much improved show."

Many people who read about the cancelation notice speculated that the rapper had canceled the show mainly because tickets weren't selling. The top comments on an article read, "Mmmm..that's because you tickets didn't sell for shit....it wouldn't even be enough if the entire 1LLIONAIRE gang so look what happened when he blindly pushed onward with a solo concert..and a concert in Japan at that..he thought he might face a loss so he just canceled," "His tickets weren't really selling lolololol I'm an exchange student and the Dok2 tickets were on sale at my school so anybody who wanted to could buy then. I think Japan was pushing it a bit," and, "Looks like fans got hammered (Dok2's strange name translates into hammer in Korean) on their feet lol."
