SEVENTEEN’s appearance at Lollapalooza Berlin 2024 was marred by an unsettling incident. Group member Mingyu, known for his striking performance and charismatic stage presence, was inappropriately touched during the event, leading to a surge of anger and frustration among fans across social media platforms.

Incident During SEVENTEEN’s Lollapalooza Performance

On September 10, 2024, SEVENTEEN performed a thrilling 90-minute set at Lollapalooza Berlin. This marked a special moment for the group, as it was their first time performing in Berlin and headlining the famous festival. Group member Vernon addressed the audience, stating, “We know how much you have waited for us. Not only is it our first time in Berlin, it’s our first time to perform at Lollapalooza, and it’s our first time to headline it. It’s all thanks to you guys.”

Their setlist included popular songs such as:

  • ‘HOT’
  • ‘SOS’
  • ‘MAESTRO’
  • ‘Ready to Love’
  • ‘Very Nice’

While the group was delivering a high-energy performance, Mingyu took the opportunity to connect with fans by stepping off the stage and approaching the barricade. Fans, also known as CARATs, were thrilled to see him up close and eagerly reached out to interact with the artist.

However, during this interaction, someone in the crowd attempted to touch Mingyu’s abs without his consent. This act has been widely condemned online, as it not only violated the artist’s personal space but also left fans and supporters outraged.

Fan Reactions to the Inappropriate Touching

Social media erupted in response to the inappropriate behavior. Many fans expressed their disappointment and anger at the incident, condemning the person responsible for disrespecting the artist.

Some notable fan reactions include:

“He stood there in front of you, trusting you not to do something inappropriate, yet you still touched his abs.”

“Whoever you are that touched Mingyu’s body without his consent, don’t you have basic human decency?! Why would you touch him? You should be thankful that he trusted you enough to go that near. Please be respectful! It is disgusting you took advantage of that moment.”

“Mingyu came there to hype the crowd, and you can see in this video that he looked down when someone touched him. This put him in an uncomfortable situation, but he handled it well by facing up to hype the crowd again. Poor Mingyu.”

Calls to Respect Artists’ Boundaries

Many fans took to Twitter/X to call out the inappropriate actions, labeling it as harassment. One fan wrote:

“Reminder that this is harassment. Mingyu (or anyone) being that close is not permission to touch them wherever you want.”

Another fan emphasized:

“This is not acceptable. Artists, like anyone else, deserve respect and should not be subjected to such behavior.”

The incident has highlighted the importance of respecting boundaries, especially during live performances, where the energy and excitement can sometimes lead to overstepping acceptable limits.

Mingyu’s Calm Response

Despite the uncomfortable situation, Mingyu managed to keep his composure and continued to perform, hyping up the crowd again. His professionalism has earned admiration from fans, although many remain deeply upset that he had to face such an experience.
