Noise surrounding the music festival 'boiler room Seoul 2024 (hereinafter referred to as boiler room)', which has been suspended due to concerns over a crush accident.

The boiler room, which was held at 9 p.m. on the 27th at S Factory D-dong, Seongsu-dong, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, was eventually canceled after several reports of too many people. In fact, five people complained of symptoms of breathing difficulties and returned home after receiving safety measures at the scene. DJ Peggy Gu, who was scheduled to perform on the morning of the 28th 'boiler room', said, `Everyone, I am so upset and heartbroken that the performance was canceled due to operational and safety problems of the organizer even before I played the music.I looked forward to today so much, but I came from Japan without sleeping, and I didn't expect this to happen." "The police were dispatched when a report came in, and fortunately, there was no major accident. Everyone who purchased the ticket has been asked to refund it as soon as possible. For those who came today and those who couldn't come in, we're discussing the next concert as soon as possible, so please wait a little bit", he also said.

However, the audience pointed out the management's inadequate response. The audience who watched the performance was followed by reviews such as the organizer selling more than 6,000 tickets even though it was a performance of 2,000 people, or the management team went up to the stage without a proper explanation, stopping the DJ's performance and forcing the audience to leave.

In the meantime, the organizers bow down and apologize for the performance situation of "'boiler room". The early suspension of the performance was out of control. Although the principle of limiting the number of people at the venue was observed, the performance was sanctioned by local police and fire officials for safety reasons. I tried to find a solution, but I eventually decided to follow the sanctions because audience safety was my top priority", he explained.

At the same time, he added that he will refund the tickets in full and hopes to push ahead with the festival as soon as possible.
