While the shows seemingly went off without a hitch, claims of fights in the audience started to surface in the days following the performances.
A girl claimed she got hit by a man at the concert. She uploaded a video of herself crying on Douyin, stating, “I got hit after coming here to watch a concert alone. I feel so wronged.”
The girl also explained what happened.
My photo captured him and his girlfriend. They were a few rows behind me but squeezed their way to where I was. Then, I saw the girl kept staring at me, and just a little bit later, I got hit by the man.
– Victim
In addition, a video of guys fighting in the audience circulated on various Chinese social media platforms.
A netizen uploaded a video of Jennie visibly worried, imitating a pushing motion while trying to get the staff’s attention.
This is so shameful. Jennie saw the two guys fighting and got the staff to intervene. I’m speechless.
– Netizen
Other netizens expressed their thoughts on what happened at the concert.
- “They bought such expensive tickets just to go there and fight.“
- “No wonder Jennie’s expression looked a bit off in the video I took.“
- “It seems like many influencers went there just to benefit from the popularity. My friends said it was a mess at the venue.“
- “The atmosphere at the Macau shows wasn’t good. Pushing and fighting. There were a lot of empty seats because of ticket scalpers. The fan support wasn’t successful. The audience was filled with influencers. Sigh.“
