KBS Music Bank Accident Much More Severe Than First Reported

credits to kahboon

Initial news reports over the collapse of KBS Music Bank's lighting structure and SHINee leader Onew's subsequent fainting understated the chaos and severity of the whole debacle. Netizens are suspecting that KBS is trying to keep their endangerment of our favorite pop stars on the down low, but in the Internet era, constricting information on a public event is a near-impossibility. Fancams which show the extent of the accident are starting to pop up, with fans of all groups appalled at the music show's lack of care for their dangerously large equipment.

Fortunately, other than Onew (who is stable and resting), nobody was hospitalized. But the potential danger from a falling light structure, coupled with KBS's immediate attempt to cover up the entire incident, is very disconcerting for all K-pop fans. Hopefully this near-disaster serves as a wake-up call to music shows and music companies, who should ensure the safety of their staff and stars.

On allkpop, the videos weren't so clear. So I searched Youtube. Luckily I found a fancam that's clear. @1:30 you can see that Onew fainted, and his manager is holding him up. @2:28 His manager is carrying him away,@2:44 Taemin, Minho, and SJ's leader Leeteuk followed.
I heard SJ' Siwon and Kyuhyun helped prop the lighting back up, but I'm not sure.
My goodness, what a disaster. First, Onew slipped onstage while performing, becuz 2NE1 performed earlier to "Umbrella," and there was water on the stage. He basically was limping in his performance. Then the lights fell, and the shock of it all, caused the poor kid to faint.

OMG..
did it fall on him???

Aiya...they really need to take better care of the stars. They are constantly falling over. :[

i saw this fancam too .. 0.0, gosh, what the hell is KBS doing, they better checked the stage better for a their own safety (that includes stars, MCs, crews, and the fan)

I was literally shocked when I heard about this before. Has KBS heard of checking equipment or anything? This was a really bad day especially for Onew.
