K-Pop Star Kang Daniel Bounces Back After La Tour Robbery: 'Let'S Still Have A Fun Show!'

Kang Daniel’s Tour Hits a Bump in SoCal

Yo, LA fam, we’ve got some real Hollywood drama unfolding, but not the kind you’d expect on the red carpet. K-Pop superstar Kang Daniel, the 27-year-old heartthrob and former WANNAONE member, is powering through his North American tour despite a wild setback - a straight-up robbery that hit his crew hard while rolling from Los Angeles to San Jose.

On September 20, right after rocking a show in the City of Angels, a staff vehicle got broken into, and the thieves made off with some serious loot. We’re talking stage costumes, hair and makeup gear, and even official merch - basically everything you need to slay a performance. Kang’s agency, Aira, confirmed the mess to Chosun Biz, and let’s just say it wasn’t the kind of Cali welcome they were hoping for.

But if you thought this would dim Kang’s shine, think again. The man’s got that West Coast resilience, posting on social media on September 23 with a thumbs-up pic and a caption that’s pure golden energy. He’s not letting some stolen threads stop the show, and honestly, we’re here for it.

Keeping the Party Going Despite the Drama

Speaking of keeping it moving, Kang dropped a message to his fans that’s got everyone hyped.

'Yo, we got all our stuff jacked - outfits, glam tools, even the MD goods, but let’s still have a fun show, lol. I’m good!'

That’s the kind of vibe you’d expect from someone who’s been grinding from Seoul to the streets of LA.

His team didn’t just sit around either. After the theft, they hustled to nearby malls - probably hitting up some classic SoCal spots - to replace the missing gear in time for the San Jose gig on September 22. Talk about a clutch save! The show went on without a hitch, proving that Kang and his squad aren’t letting a little bad luck steal their thunder.

But wait, there’s more to this rollercoaster. Earlier in the tour, a New Jersey stop on September 6 got canned just two hours before curtain call due to some major local setup fails. Kang himself stepped up to apologize to the crowd in person - a real stand-up move - while Aira promised full refunds, not wanting to half-step for the fans.

Fans Rally Behind Kang’s Unbreakable Spirit

Despite the chaos, Kang’s fans are showing mad love, flooding social media with support that’s as warm as a Malibu summer day. Messages like 'this just wards off the bad juju' and 'nothing but good vibes from here on out' are popping up everywhere, reminding us why the K-Pop community is straight fire.

Kang’s 12-city North American trek, which kicked off on September 3, is still rolling strong with upcoming stops in Washington, New York, Chicago, and a return to LA - because you know he’s gotta give the West Coast another dose of that magic. After that, he’s jetting off to South America for shows in Argentina and Brazil, spreading that K-Pop love worldwide.

So, while the road’s been bumpy - from stolen gear to canceled dates - Kang Daniel’s keeping it 100 with that Cali cool. If you’re catching one of his shows, get ready for a performance that’s all heart, no matter what gets thrown his way. Keep shining, Kang - LA’s got your back!
