South Korean pop star Kang Daniel experienced a major setback during his ongoing US tour when thieves broke into his team's vehicle and stole essential stage equipment and costumes. The incident occurred on Saturday while the singer and his crew were traveling to San Jose, California, for a scheduled concert performance.
According to his management agency ARA, the theft happened when criminals targeted a staff vehicle, making off with a suitcase containing crucial items needed for the show. The stolen goods included stage costumes, professional hair styling tools, makeup equipment, and various other performance-related materials that are essential for K-pop productions.
Despite the significant theft, Kang Daniel's team quickly sprang into action to ensure the concert could proceed as planned. The agency reported that staff members immediately went to a nearby shopping mall to purchase replacement items, demonstrating their commitment to not disappointing fans who had been eagerly awaiting the performance.
The 27-year-old singer personally addressed the incident on his social media platforms, providing fans with a candid update about the situation. "All my luggage was stolen – costumes, hair and makeup tools, even merchandise goods," Kang Daniel wrote in his post. However, he maintained a positive attitude and reassured his supporters by adding, "But let's still make it a fun show."
The theft comes at a particularly busy time for Kang Daniel, who recently released his new single "No Day" on September 3rd. He is currently in the middle of an extensive 12-city tour across the United States, with performances scheduled in major metropolitan areas including Washington D.C., New York City, Chicago, and Los Angeles.
Following the completion of his US tour dates, Kang Daniel plans to expand his international reach with concerts in South America. The tour will continue with performances in Argentina and Brazil, marking his continued efforts to connect with fans across the Americas and establish a stronger global presence for K-pop entertainment.
