Is it becoming a trend in kpop to lie about offline concerts events?

  • I remember rumours about offline concerts before the pandemic. Usually it will be about someone wearing tshirt or using light sticks from a rival fandom - and it’s either people get upset because it is “disrespectful” to that group (it’s not) or that someone got jumped on by the fans and make the rival fandom upset (and making the concert fandom looked bad).

  • idk what this is in reference to, but people are always making up shit for clout. People fully forgot how to act in public during the pandemic so I expect it to be much worse nowadays.

  • I don’t know if it’s because offline concerts feels all new again that the losers who crave attention (mostly don’t even attend) make up false stories. And one thing about the Kpop fandom is every bad rumor will spread fast.

    Is this about the girl that "died" from a needle at the Ateez Paris concert but it was debunked? I don't think it affected Ateez though - only that venue.

    This and the Stray Kidz concert in Saudi Arabia. Literally police and SK’s side were roaming the entire day searching for a lie made up by people who were not even there (later it showed most made up comments were not even from the country).

    That's not what happened.


    There was a sudden sandstorm that tore even the led screens off the stage. Some people got injured, the ambulance had to come. Also, the organisers were not prepared for this happening, they didn't have a plan for leaving the site that people could've followed. So 34k people all tried to leave and get to somewhere safer all at once, this in itself was bound to cause chaos. In addition, there were many foreigners and minors. Some people did get lost, even if not for a long time. You can't blame people for panicking.


    The police didn't get involved because of some post on the internet but due to all the things I described above.


    People began making up lies intentionally when the people who went there were already panicking.


  • The police stayed and were circling the scene for hours because of the lies not because of the storm. The organizers and the volunteers expressed how disappointed they were with the lies that were spread after they returned home because they made sure everyone was safe and the place was evacuated after the storm. Those lies even ruined the reputation of Kpop concerts in the country making going to Kpop concerts harder than it already was for a lot of people there.

    I can imagine that happening. I remember many accounts about sexual harssment and creeps supposedly chasing girls around and tricking them into getting in their cars with the pretex of helping them.

    I still don't know why you're pretending that absolutely nothing wrong happened and people began saying people are missing because they had nothing better to do. There were videos of everything that went down, many people were panicking due to the things that went down. It was a chaotic situation, there was lots of genuine confusion and worry.

    Because even most of those videos/pics were revealed to be old random videos/pics on the internet. There were mostly cases of proven to be fake pictures of girls who were supposedly lost or fake pictures of criminals or fake narratives about kids lost when kids were not even allowed at the concert. I am not talking about the storm panic. No one is saying that was a lie. The storm was real and unfortunate and it definitely messed up foreigners the most but the panic on the internet and from the people who went there to check the situation again were mostly from the tons of lies that were spread after the storm fiasco. I don’t know why I have to explain what I said. Can’t I even complain about the horrible lies these attention seekers made?

  • maybe don't talk about it as if EVERYTHING was a lie? it's simple

    Read my post again because in no where I suggested it was a happy sunshine day. The concert even got canceled because of the storm. My all focus and complaining on this thread were about the lies and the lies only yet you are making an irrelevant argument.
