SEVENTEEN Fans Show Impressive Clean-Up Effort After Historic Jamsu Bridge Concert: Netizens React

SEVENTEEN’s fans, known as Carats, are receiving widespread praise for their orderly behavior and clean-up efforts after the group’s historic concert on Jamsu Bridge. The event marked the first time a K-pop concert was held on this iconic Seoul bridge. Fans voluntarily stacked chairs and cleared trash to ensure a smooth exit for everyone.

The concert, titled ‘B-DAY PARTY: BURST Stage @ Jamsugyo Bridge’, was part of celebrations for SEVENTEEN’s 10th anniversary. It took place on May 25, 2025, with 6,000 seats available on the bridge itself. Additional viewing areas were set up in nearby Banpo Hangang Park for fans who couldn’t get bridge seats.

Social media posts show Carats efficiently stacking plastic chairs after the show ended. This spontaneous action helped create wider aisles for safer crowd movement. Fans also made sure to collect all their trash, leaving the public space clean. The bridge had been closed to all traffic from 7 AM on May 25 to 4 AM on May 26 for the event.

Online forums are filled with positive reactions to the fans’ behavior. Many netizens commented on how Carats demonstrated maturity and consideration. Some noted this reflects well on SEVENTEEN, whose members are known for emphasizing good manners and respect.

“Wow, that’s so cool ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ”
“Man, they really should be thankful to the fans hereㅋㅋㅋㅋ”
“Fans have insane sense”

The Seoul Metropolitan Government organized the concert in collaboration with Seocho-gu Office, PLEDIS Entertainment, and HYBE Corporation. Officials had implemented extensive safety measures for the unique bridge venue. These included complete traffic closures and rerouted bus services. However, fans took initiative beyond official preparations.

“I was there too, and I left while helping clean up ㅋㅋㅋ”
“It’s not just the chairs, but the fact that there’s no trash on the floor also looks great”

This isn’t the first time K-pop fans have shown exemplary behavior at events. Many groups’ fandoms are known for organized clean-ups after concerts. However, the Jamsu Bridge event presented unique challenges due to its outdoor, public location and narrow walkways.

“The fans saved it. The event staff seriously—what were they doingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ”
“Carats are amazing!! What awesome fan girls”

SEVENTEEN’s 10th anniversary celebrations included more than just the bridge concert. A pop-up store ran from May 23-25 at Some Sevit, attracting an estimated 100,000 visitors. The group debuted in 2015 under Pledis Entertainment and has grown into one of K-pop’s most successful acts.

“In the end, it’s people who clean up the chairs, so it must’ve made things easier for the staff”
“ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ So cute and kindㅋㅋㅋ”

The Jamsu Bridge concert was part of testing the location’s potential as a cultural space. Seoul officials plan to transform the bridge into a pedestrian-only area next year. The successful event, combined with fans’ responsible behavior, may encourage more such innovative venues.

“Fr, the staff barely gave any guidance and there were tons of little bumps on the floor people could’ve tripped on, but the fan girls were all like, ‘Watch your step~’ to each other on the way out”
“It looks so nice”

K-pop fandoms often organize charitable activities and maintain strong community values. SEVENTEEN’s Carats have previously participated in donation campaigns and other positive initiatives. This latest demonstration of consideration continues that tradition.

“That’s awesome… ㅋㅋ they made space on their own…ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ”
“We’re 10-year fans too”

The bridge concert created memorable moments beyond the clean-up effort. SEVENTEEN performed against the backdrop of Seoul’s famous Moonlight Rainbow Fountain. The group’s energetic stage presence combined with the unique venue made for a special anniversary celebration.

“Smart Carats, glad everyone got home safe without any incidents”
“Our boys are 10 years in, so the fans are seasoned too—handled everything smoothly”

Event organizers had prepared for crowd management challenges by closing pedestrian access to the bridge from 5 PM to 11 PM on May 25. They also set up multiple zones in Banpo Hangang Park for fans to watch live streams of the performance. The Carats’ additional efforts helped ensure everything went smoothly.

“Apparently, thanks to the fans organizing the chairs like that, the aisles widened and exiting became super fast and easy”

This incident highlights how K-pop fandoms often go beyond expectations to create positive experiences. SEVENTEEN and their Carats continue setting examples of artist-fan community building. The group’s decade-long career has fostered this strong, respectful relationship between performers and supporters.
