Fans of South Korean idol group B.A.P were surprised after hearing the news that the group is cancelling its "B.A.P Live on Earth 2014" tour in South America. The tour's cancellation was announced by the idol group's record label TS Entertainment on October 28^th, Daily Kpop News reports.

The label released an official statement through B.A.P's official Facebook regarding the abrupt cancellation of the tour.

Here is the official statement:

"Dear BABYz,

Hello, this is TS Entertainment.

First of all, we highly appreciate your kind support on B.A.P and would like to inform you of B.A.P's schedule.

B.A.P and TS have striven to fulfill our common goal so far; when viewing with a long-term perspective, we concluded that B.A.P deserves the sufficient time to get recharged in return for their relentless effort and endeavor and this is the time. So, we made the decision to suspend B.A.P's official schedule after Music Bank In Mexico and for them to take a rest for a while, because the artist condition is the top priority for us.

Therefore, we're very sorry to inform you that we decided to cancel B.A.P Live On Earth 2014 South America Attack to be scheduled on November after talking with Hallyutrend in full faith who has been organized the tour. Even though we're fully aware that lots of BABYs were waiting for B.A.P's shows, we inevitably reached this conclusion so that B.A.P can show a better performance with a better condition in the near future; we look forward to your kind understanding.

Again, please accept our sincere apologies on worrying you who really have been caring about B.A.P and we wish your continuous support and love until B.A.P is back.

We promise that B.A.P will come back with the Best, Absolute, and Perfect stage/performance than ever within a short time.

Thank you for your kind attention and see you soon."

According to JpopAsia, "Music Bank In Mexico" is scheduled on October 30. B.A.P will be on hiatus from that date onwards for an unclear period of time.

As noted by SoulBeats, the group has been working continuously since their debut in 2012. B.A.P has been one of the most active idol groups, frequently releasing new music through the year, promoting on music anda variety shows, as well as touring around the world to meet and perform for fans.

While the cancellation might disappoint fans in South America, SoulBeats wrote that their hiatus would  hopefully give the idols plenty of time to rest.
