SNSD Attacked on Stage!
White Day, a holiday celebrated through Asian culture, is a day that revolves around romantic relationships, or the lack thereof, on the 14th of March. Today, both 2PM and SNSD performed for an event called the White Day Big Concert, and unfortunately, things did not end well.
The SNSD girls have already had more than their fair share of poor concert etiquette ever since the 2008 Dream Concert, but once again, things turned sour. After 2PM performed, the SNSD girls arrived on stage and found themselves as victims against an angry mob throwing glowsticks at them. And even more unfortunately, Seohyun, the maknae of SNSD may have been hit by one of them. As luck would have it, the angry concert-goers were supposedly 2PM fans, based on the green color of the light sticks.
As tumultuous as February was, it looks like it’s time for another controversy.
It seems a possible reason behind this hate crime was simply the fact that reporters have often made up little scandals about possible “love lines” between 2PM and SNSD members, a notable example would be Taecyeon and Yoona. So far, these rumors have just been rumors, but fans have definitely gotten upset, leaving this a possible explanation, albeit a poor one. But with the day being White Day and the concert being called the White Day Big Concert, emotions may have been on the rise.
But the SNSD girls showed their professionalism when Sooyoung wrote a message after the concert, “Please take all of these glow sticks when you leave today~ ^^” She definitely rose above the hate of today’s event, and hopefully her words were a sign that SNSD pulled through the incident, heads held high, unscathed by misdirected anger.
Since SNSD has had prior bad experiences because of fans at the 2008 Dream Concert, their fans have become very protective of the girls, aware of how vulnerable they may be after this second incident.
