The organizers for 'Super 7', Leessang Company, announced on September 21 KST that the concert featuring the seven cast members of MBC's 'Infinity Challenge' is canceled.

Leessang Company stated, "We planned the concert to come together personally with everyone who has supported us and the program, and we asked the Leessang Company to help plan the concert because they have the most experience among us seven members. As we started practice, the desire for a high-quality stage grew, and we began to focus on the concert's quality instead of looking at the important aspects. Many issues arose due to our lack of experience, and we apologize for causing confusion among all the people who've put trust in us for so long. We came to the difficult decision yesterday in the early morning that it wasn't right to put on a concert that would make the viewers of 'Infinity Challenge' uncomfortable."

After news of the concert's cancellation was announced, cast member Jung Joon Ha commented, "I'm very much reflecting once again on the fact that issues related to the concert have caused worry and concern for so many people. I have nothing to say, not because I'm not sorry, but because we 'Infinity Challenge' members are a family with the same thought, and I feel that I [shouldn't speak for everyone else]. Now, we plan to [bring viewers more laughs], so please love and support 'Infinity Challenge' in the future as well."

He continued, "In addition, to Leessang and the Leessang Company family, who have both materially and emotionally helped us despite being busy, I want to say thank you; please give them love. I promise that you can see us with a bright image this weekend again."

Issues previously arose when PD Kim Tae Ho of 'Infinity Challenge' stated that the 'Super 7' concert has no connection to the show. There were also complaints that the ticket prices were too high (though they were average) as well as discontent that the concert time would overlap with the show's regular broadcast.

In related news, Leessang's Gary has announced that he will be taking a hiatus from variety shows.
