Shocking Details Of Near-Fatal Incident During A Concert Exposed
In July 2022, a giant LED screen fell during a concert, leaving a dancer still paralyzed to this day. Shocking details regarding the incident are now being exposed as court proceedings happen.
Giant LED Screen Falls On Dancers At Hong Kong Boy Band Mirror’s Concert
The incident happened at the Hong Kong Coliseum during the concert of Hong Kong’s top idol group MIRROR. In the aftermath, the concert was postponed, the group took a hiatus, and multiple dancers were left injured, including one who’s still paralyzed to this day. His idol girlfriend withdrew from her group afterwards and still takes care of him daily.
Currently, court proceedings are being held to determine who will be responsible for what happened. During one of the hearings, shocking details about the incident were exposed, angering netizens.
According to reports, Lam, a manager from the company which was responsible for the LED screens for the concert, took the stand. When asked whether there were any communications between the relevant parties regarding the weight of the LED screen, to ensure that the wires would not fail, he responded, “It seems like there was,” using words that imply uncertainty.
Additionally, when the defense questioned him, they pointed out that on July 27, the day before the incident, someone had already noted one of the LED screens was slanted and told Lam to get back to the venue to inspect the problem.
Lam confirmed the defense’s claims and revealed that the issue rested within the height of the wires and was, therefore, not related to the LED screen. As such, he contacted another company that was also working on the project. Someone from that company climbed up to inspect the top of the LED screen.
The defense then asked, “Did anyone say that if the LED screen isn’t safe, then it should be taken down?” Lam responded, “Nope.” This LED screen ended up being the one that fell.
Netizens are not pleased with the details that are now coming to light.

WTF…from declaring the weight and putting everything together to the materials and inspections, everything had an issue. And the screen was even already slanted the day before? This world is absurd…

“‘It seems like there was [communication].’ They even knew there was an issue but didn’t do anything after checking it. What am I reading here?”
-
“If these people were actually on stage performing, I want to know if they would’ve worked like this. I’m so pissed off; I can’t put it into words.”
-
“‘This LED screen ended up being the one which fell.’ F*ck these people.”
-
“I’m so mad. These f*ckers have no sense of responsibility. They can’t be called human.”
The case is still ongoing, and more details are expected to emerge in the future.
