B2ST prematurely ends mini-concert out of concern for fans

Due to their overwhelming popularity, B2ST had to actually pull the plug prematurely for their January 26th mini-concert. Reportedly, fans rushed to the front of the stage, and there were incidents of people being crushed as a result. The scene of the concert has been described as nothing short of ‘chaotic’.

To recap, B2ST was planning a joint event with BBQ Chicken called the ‘Mini Concert of Love with BBQ & B2ST‘ in Seoul. The boys were to auction off their personal belongings at the event, in which the proceeds would go towards helping children suffering from leukaemia.

Considering how the event was both a concert and an auction, fans poured into the hall and the scene quickly turned chaotic. Eventually, the members of B2ST decided to stop the concert out of concerns for everyone’s safety.

While the proceeds from the ‘Mini Concert of Love’ will still go towards helping the charitable fund, the host of the event is currently facing harsh criticisms from angry fans who felt that the scene could have been controlled better.

B2ST auctions off personal items during BBQ mini-concert

On January 26th, chicken company BBQ held a ‘BBQ B2ST Mini-Concert‘ in Seoul.

During the event, personal items belonging to the individual members of B2ST were auctioned off, and the profits made will be used to benefit children suffering from leukemia.

In order to attend this event, the public was asked to visit BBQ Chicken’s official website and leave a comment to the statement, “Reason(s) why BBQ chicken is good for using extra virgin olive oil and 100% organic chickens.” 2,000 individuals were chosen at random, and received an invitation to watch B2ST’s mini-concert this afternoon, although it was delayed for close to 2 hours after some fans got overzealous and started pushing around, creating safety concerns for others.

Affiliated members of BBQ commented, “This will be a multiple beneficial event where a customer can enjoy eating BBQ chicken at a reduced price, use the event comment box to have a chance of meeting B2ST, and know that the money they donate to the auction will be used for good purposes. We will try hard to make sure that customers are satisfied knowing that they are participating.”
