It's still hot to talk about the commotion of the Chaotic Singing Dance music festival. The number of spectators exploded resulting in chaos at the festival site. 27 people were reported to have fainted until the police suspected that there were unscrupulous promoters in the event. Now things are even worse happening at the K-Pop group NCT 127's concert.

Concert NCT 127: 2nd Tour Neo City: Jakarta - The Link took place at ICE BSD on Friday November 4, 2022. Unfortunately it didn't finish, the concert had to be forced to stop in the middle of the event because of a commotion. The fence in the festival class had collapsed. Not only that, there were even more spectators who fainted at the concert! 

According to a story from Asep, one of the NCTzens who watched the concert on the first day, there was an announcement from the police that 30 fans fainted. "Because (the fence) collapsed in front of the police, the police immediately ordered it to stop. But maybe the information has not reached Dyandra's side, so one song is still going on. Touch is still being sung. But after that incident, we were told to rest for five minutes to fix the fence. 

After that , just started the song Touch. Now, because there was an appeal from the police to stop the concert, after Touch, there was an announcement from the loudspeaker, "said Asep. "More or less it says 'because of our agreement with the promoter, no more than 30 people should faint, so this event must be stopped'. That's what the police said directly," he added. 

This is not the first time an audience has fainted at a K-Pop concert. However, it was the first time there was a scene at the NCT 127 concert in Indonesia. Enthusiasm of fans who are too overwhelming is suspected to be the cause of the chaos. According to Asep's story, an uproar began to occur in the middle of the concert when the NCT 127 members performed a ball throwing gimmick on stage. 


Similar gimmicks are often used by K-Pop stars from time to time during concerts in Jakarta. In fact, it is not uncommon for an artist to get off the stage. However, in the previous event, the concert was not stopped because of an uproar or the fence collapsed. During SNSD's last concert at ICE BSD, for example, several members took to the stage to greet the fans and everything went smoothly. 

It's a shame it didn't happen at the NCT 127 concert Friday night. Asep, who witnessed the concert in the festival class, told a story about the seconds before the concert was stopped. Asep admitted that he was enjoying the concert and relaxing with his cellphone so he didn't pay much attention to what was going on around him. However, he noticed Doyoung's expression changed while on stage. 

It was there, he felt that something was wrong with the people around him. "In Paradise there is a scene of NCT throwing a ball. At the beginning of the song it was still safe, but when Mark and Taeyong came to the C festival area, everyone in the area was excited. The fence collapsed," said Asep. The collapsing fence occurred in front of several police officers. 

It is known that since there was a bomb threat, the police came to the location to conduct a sweep and search for suspicious objects, although in the end they were not found. Several personnel remained at the location to monitor the course of the event. Followed by Asep, after the fence collapsed due to crowds, the concert continued as usual. 

NCT 127 had time to sing one song, namely Touch. The number of spectators at the NCT 127 concert was indeed no more than the Berdendang Bergoyang festival, which was said to have violated the crowd's permit. However, the number of victims who fainted at the NCT 127 concert reached 30 people, 3 people more than Berdendang Berjangi.

SM Entertainment has not issued a statement regarding the commotion that occurred. Until Saturday November 5, 2022 morning, the plan for the second day of the NCT 127: 2nd Tour Neo City: Jakarta - The Link concert continues and there is no information on cancellation. Dyandra announced that he would add medical and security personnel to the second day of the concert.
