Recently, SM Entertainment released a statement in relation to Taeyeon's withdrawal from joining the KAMP LA 2022 concert. The company released a statement on her official Instagram account on October 15 that "The organizer was in charge of visa approvals related to the performances, and we cooperated in advance and provided all the necessary documents needed in the process. However, we were informed that Taeyeon's performance visa hasn't been approved in the end. We ask for your understanding for not being able to inform the fans sooner, as the organizer was in the process of checking the visa status of several other artists other than our own whose visa have also not been processed."
