On April 30, they performed live at the Dagupan Bangus Festival in Pangasinan. Hundreds of fans showed up to watch them headline the Coke Studio stage.

Though they were expected to perform numerous songs, they ended up cutting their set list short. It was obvious from fan-uploaded pictures and videos that they were feeling uncomfortable throughout their act.

It was later revealed that an unconfirmed number of people had fainted while they were on stage. Dagupan city recorded a heat index of 48 degrees Celsius (118 degrees Fahrenheit) earlier that day.

Fans noted that the girls “tried their best” to help the audience members, giving out water and asking them to stop pushing each other. They praised them for their efforts in promoting safety at all times.

They were also understanding, saying that they knew that stopping the concert was the more difficult decision to make that night.

Member Colet later apologized for the short show. She confirmed that they did so out of safety concerns and that they did not “want to cause any harm” to the ones in attendance.

Fans took to social media as well to remind each other to take care of their health. Incidents such as this one, after all, can be “traumatizing for the girls.”
