In July 2022, a giant LED screen fell during a concert, leaving a dancer paralyzed to this day. Shocking details surrounding the incident are now being discovered during court proceedings.
A giant LED screen falls on dancers at the Boy Band Mirror concert in Hong Kong
The incident occurred at the Hong Kong Coliseum during a concert by Hong Kong’s top idol group MIRROR. Afterwards, the concert was postponed, the group took a break, and several dancers were injured, including one who is still paralyzed to this day. His idol girlfriend later withdrew from his group and still takes care of him on a daily basis.
Legal proceedings are currently underway to establish who will be responsible for what happened. Shocking details about the incident emerged during one of the hearings, angering netizens.
According to reports, LamAn executive from the company responsible for the LED screens for the concert was on site. When asked if there was any communication between stakeholders regarding the weight of the LED screen, to ensure that the cables did not come missing, he replied: “It seems there was,” using words that imply uncertainty.
Furthermore, when the defense questioned him, he pointed out that on July 27, the day before the incident, someone had already noticed that one of the LED screens was tilted and told Lam to return to the scene to check the problem.
Lam confirmed the defense’s claims and revealed that the problem lay in the height of the cables and was therefore not related to the LED screen. Therefore, he contacted another company that was also working on the project. Someone from that company climbed up to inspect the top of the LED screen.
The defense then asked: “Did anyone say that if the LED screen is unsafe, then it should be removed?” Lam replied: “No.” This LED screen was the one that ultimately fell apart.
Netizens are not happy with the details that are coming to light.

What the hell…from the weight declaration to the assembly of everything, to the materials and inspections, everything had a problem. And was the screen already tilted the day before? This world is absurd…
– Netizens
-
“’Looks like there was [communication].’ They also knew there was a problem but did nothing after checking it. What am I reading here?”
-
“If these people were actually on stage performing, I want to know if they would have worked this way. I’m so pissed off; I can’t put it into words.
-
“‘This LED screen was the one that finally fell.’ Fuck these people.
-
“I’m so angry. These assholes have no sense of responsibility. They cannot be called human.”
The case is still ongoing and more details are expected to emerge in the future.
