The fireworks were aimed at the crowd.
A SEVENTEEN concert on September 13, 2025, took a shocking turn after a technical malfunction caused fireworks to be misfired directly into the audience. The incident reportedly occurred during one of the group’s special stage moments, when pyrotechnics were supposed to shoot upward as part of the finale. Instead, due to what organizers are calling a “technical error,” several fireworks were launched at the crowd, injuring multiple fans in attendance.

I think they need to readjust the fireworks during “Eyes On You.” We love a good fireworks show, but the fireworks were shot so that they landed right in front of the audience. If anyone was hit by it, they’d be burned or their eyes could’ve been injured… Everyone in our area was so shocked.
Videos and photos quickly spread online, showing panicked concertgoers ducking for cover as sparks rained into the seating area.

I was seated in the N5 area on the second floor, and I was hit by the fireworks during “Eyes On You.” Everyone be careful.
Pledis Entertainment has yet to release an official statement regarding the incident, but fans are demanding accountability and improved safety measures to prevent similar accidents in future concerts.
