Since Han Geng was the first Chinese person to debut in Korea, Han Geng and SM didn’t know about the laws. He found out that his visa had a problem, and that he was no longer allowed to perform until the problem had been solved. There was also a law saying that foreigners could only perform on 3 TV channels. Basically, Han was told that he would be fined or even kicked out of Korea if he performed on TV. He was able to perform since he wore a mask.
