Festival Poster Mix-Up Sparks Confusion Over Taeyeon Appearance

Confusion has erupted regarding singer Taeyeon's supposed appearance at a regional festival, as conflicting statements from organizers have left fans puzzled.

On July 14, an online community post drew attention by featuring a poster listing Taeyeon as part of the lineup for the 'Jangsu Hanwoo and Apple Festival.'

The festival, scheduled to take place from September 18 to 21 at the Uiam Park area in Jangsu-eup, listed Taeyeon alongside artists like tripleS, Park Ji-hyun, and Choi Jae-myung, sparking curiosity about her participation.

However, it was clarified that trot singer Kim Taeyeon is the actual performer at the event. A festival representative admitted, "There was an error during the promotional material's production," and the festival organizers plan to correct the mistake.

Some media outlets further fueled the confusion by reporting that Jangsu County Office had attempted to book Taeyeon but failed, and that even Kim Taeyeon was not set to perform.

In response, Taeyeon's agency, SM Entertainment, firmly stated to Xportsnews, "She is not performing at the 'Jangsu Hanwoo and Apple Festival,' and we have not received any invitation. We hope fans are not misled."

Netizens reacted with comments like "Who's miscommunicating here?", "It's tough for both Taeyeons," and "I don't know what to believe anymore."

Meanwhile, Taeyeon recently concluded her solo 10th anniversary tour, 'TAEYEON CONCERT - The TENSE,' in Hong Kong last month and continues to appear regularly on tvN's 'Amazing Saturday.'
