Grieving nation cancels cultural events, but some artists say music can be way to mourn
Some artists are speaking up over the cancellation of performances and concerts in the wake of Saturday's deadly crowd crush in Itaewon, a tragedy that took the lives of 156 people and injured 173 people more. A slew of cancellations or postponements come in line with an announcement by the government, which set a national mourning period until Nov. 5 to pay tribute to the victims. Major cultural events, including album releases, concerts and film events, have been canceled.
