​B.A.P's American tour confuses and angers fans

Picture
The official B.A.P Facebook page shared the following post by JSJ Entertainment: ​

​​This is in addition to a post from a few days ago when JSJ Entertainment had announced that B.A.P would be performing in California's Fantasy Springs Resort Casino on November 10th. Because of various misspellings by JSJ Entertainment as well as the lack of TS Entertainment logos, many fans had been convinced the situation was a hoax.

However, the concert seems to be confirmed by TS Entertainment as the poster was updated with TS Entertainment's logo and reposted by the B.A.P Facebook page. The post confused and angered many fans, as Bang Yong Guk and Zelo's contract with TS Entertainment is ending soon, not to mention that Bang Yong Guk, Himchan, and maybe even Daehyun may not be able to leave Korea due to the new military laws. This would mean that the only members that can show up may be Jongup and Youngjae, but neither TS Entertainment nor JSJ Entertainment has addressed such matters.

The post has further angered fans because if true, this means that B.A.P is being put out to another overseas tour all the way up until the end of their contract.
