The Wonder Girls concerts at Pipeline Cafe scheduled for this weekend have been postponed due to a family emergency within the group, a spokesman for the venue announced earlier today. The venue was informed that the father of one of the Girls had died suddenly and that group had decided to delay the start of the next leg of the North American tour.

The tour, which would have started here on Friday with the Wonder Girls and their producer Park Jin-Young (aka JYP), is scheduled to continue through July 20. Pipeline owner Greg Azus is working with Park and JYP Entertainment to reschedule the concerts for late next month.

Update (5:52 p.m.):

The Wonder Girls concerts scheduled for this weekend have been rescheduled for July 16 and 17.

The new times for the first show are doors open at 7 p.m. and the show starting at 8 p.m. People who have bought meet-and-greet tickets for the first show should be there by 7 p.m.

The second show is now a matinee. Doors open at noon and the show starts at 1 p.m. People who have bought meet-and-greet tickets for the second show should be there by noon.
