Things became chaotic when more than 1,000 fans turned up at the SHINee meet-the-fans session yesterday (Jan 31) at Lot One. There were people pushing, and prying open doors, and the management still didn’t do anything to improve the situation, says STOMPer EQ.

In an email to STOMP today (Feb 1), the STOMPer says:

“The first person queued at 5pm despite internet announcements stating that no overnight queue was allowed.

“The first couple of fans took things in their own hands and wrote unofficial numbers on everyone's hands.

“A girl in black shirt in the unofficial ‘management’ said that they would try their best to get these people (the people that came after the first thousand) to go back home.

“A lot of fans were upset and joined the crowd who stayed outside the entrance to wait for it to open and rush in.

“The fans pried open the door, pushed and ran in madly. It was so chaotic.

“Capital Land Mall staff even went to the extreme and asked the fans to leave the mall.

“People started rushing up to the movie box office area to catch a glimpse but couldn’t see anything from the box office as the wallpaper of the door is opaque.

“Despite the security repeated saying of that the management is deciding whether to let the fans in or not, no action was carried out.

“What happened to the announcements made on the internet?”
