NCT 127's concert in Jakarta ended abruptly last night (04/11).

Following a bomb threat earlier in the day, the first night of the group's NEO CITY: JAKARTA - THE LINK concerts was cut short due to fans fainting and barriers falling down. Taking place at the Indonesia Convention Exhibition, thousands of fans showed up to support the 'Sticker' act in their first concert in Indonesia. 

According to NCTzens on Twitter, Taeyong first noticed the disturbance at the barriers while performing 'Paradise'. The NCT leader stopped the song, and together with the group asked fans to take a step back, stop pushing, and give each other room to breathe. 30 fans reportedly fainted at the concert, and as a result, the show ended early to prioritise the safety of both artists and fans.

Semua member menghentikan perform, terlihat sangat khawatir dan meminta seluruh penonton untuk mundur dan tidak dorong dorongan.

Dimohon untuk seluruh NCTzen yang menonton, UTAMAKAN KESELAMATAN DIRI KALIAN terlebih dahulu 🙏 🙏🙏 pic.twitter.com/R2KnNmItsb

In a Bubble message last night, Taeyong shared that safety for everyone is NCT 127's top priority and that he prays no one got hurt at the show. He also revealed his concerns over how the next concert will be held the next day, emphasising that the problems must be sorted out first.

On 5 November, concert organisers Dyandra Global Entertainment announced that Day 2 of THE LINK concerts will push through as planned. The promoters also apologised to fans, NCT 127, and SM Entertainment for what transpired at last night's concert, and promised to add more paramedics and security personnel for tonight's show. They also encouraged fans to "maintain safety procedures throughout the event."
