NCT WISH will not be performing at SMTOWN LIVE 2025 in Los Angeles on May 11, due to unexpected problems with their visa approval process.
SM Entertainment shared an official statement explaining that the group had completed all the required steps, including submitting necessary documents and attending visa interviews, but they faced an unforeseen delay in visa processing.
Cause of Delay Still Unknown
The company mentioned that the exact reason behind the visa delay is still unclear, which unfortunately made it impossible for NCT WISH to secure their visas on time for the show.
This has left many fans disappointed, especially those who were excited to see the group’s performance in person.
Apology and Promise to Fans
SM Entertainment offered a heartfelt apology to fans, especially those who had made special plans to attend the concert. They thanked everyone for their continued love and support, and promised that NCT WISH will return with even more powerful performances in the future to repay the fans’ patience and loyalty.
