Recently, the 2024 SBS Gayo Daejeon Summer event took place at the INSPIRE Arena in Seoul, featuring performances from various idol groups. However, a serious staff mistake caused concern among netizens when NMIXX members Jiwoo and Lily fell on stage.
As NMIXX walked to the main stage to perform their hit song “DASH,” both Jiwoo and Lily slipped and fell. The falls were due to water left on the stage from the previous performance by ZEROBASEONE, whose water cannons had sprayed the stage. Unfortunately, the staff did not properly dry the stage, making it dangerously slippery.
Fans and netizens quickly shared their worries online, expressing frustration about the unsafe stage conditions:
“Oh no, is the stage really slippery? I hope they didn’t get hurt ㅜㅜㅜ”
“Whoa, they fell really hard…?? This is so frustrating.”
“Seriously, there’s always talk about the stage there…”
“They even fall just walking, how can they dance ㅠ”
“If they’re falling just by walking, how can they perform on stage?”
“Oh wow, it’s like watching a short track speed skating race.”
“Aigoo…”
After the performance, Jiwoo took to Bubble, a platform where idols communicate with fans to express her emotions. She shared that she felt upset and wanted to cry but managed to finish the performance professionally despite the mishap.
Thankfully, no one was seriously injured during the incident. However, the event highlighted the importance of stage safety and proper preparation to ensure performers’ well-being.
The 2024 SBS Gayo Daejeon Summer showcased the incredible talent of groups like NMIXX. Despite the stage mishap, Jiwoo and Lily’s professionalism and resilience shone through.
Fans continue to support NMIXX, appreciating their dedication and grace under pressure. As the group moves forward, their determination will inspire many, proving that even in challenging situations, they can perform brilliantly.
