Idols Fainting And Collapsed On Stage - The Inhumane Side Of KPOP

KPOP #KPOPNEWS
---
With so many concerts, variety shows, travel, and fan meetings almost every day, some idols have been pushed to the brink of collapse due to overwork. Their schedules are so packed with commitments that they hardly have any time to rest.
The intense pressure and grueling workload that K-pop idols are subjected to can sometimes take such a physical and emotional toll that they collapse or faint right in front of the cameras.

I hate this "the show must go on" thing when a person literally COLLAPSED on stage 😤 they shouldn't be forced nor should have the mentality of "I can do this" when they aren't feeling well. We should normalize their absence on performances when they're (or almost) sick

[@wnysjournal]

hey were under slave contracts at that time. They were contracts which said if the members did anything in front of the camera that the company did not explicitly tell them to, the company could file for breach of contract, and they could be arrested, especially on those times. The members actually went to visit the Dancer in hospital with flowers and they were crying and apologising profusely. Also, remember, in those times, the company could essentially indirectly kill the members if they didn't do what they wanted. I'm not excusing the fact that the Dancer should've gotten help straight away, but the members couldn't do anything. Plus, with all those effects, I'm sure anybody could of had a seizure.

@KaylaA725 nobody is normalising seizures and not am I making any excuses for it... However how can you help another person when you're in trouble yourself? Again as I said, there was a performance going on and at first the girls might've not even noticed and when they did they couldn't do anything about it since it was mandatory for them to keep performing.

[@lavinia648]

6:10 what makes this much worse is that they pulled her from the stage. When someone has a seizure you shouldn’t really touch them unless you are in the medical field and know what to do bcs the one who has the seizure can get injured really fast and bad but also the one who is holding the person. So when you ever see someone having a seizure there is not much you can do except of course calling an ambulance, try to put smth soft under their head so that they don’t suffer from a head injury and make sure that they can’t hurt themselves with things around them so try to get rid of them

You can be near over heated sitting still with bad cramps. Trying to dance through it will definitely cause fainting. Most women use ibuprofen if they have painful cramps though.

People doesn't understand what professionalism is nowadays. If someone fainted on stage, stop the music, stop performing, get help right away. We should stop praising artists for performing while sick and injured saying they're so professional. That's not professionalism, that's damn cruel and sad.

[@afkyuna_zZz]

That's true like if they are sick and want to preform, stop them.

[@Birimonsuta]

I hate that the slave contracts had to prevent them from helping the poor dancer! It is sick, that no one could help bc the contract was so evilly sick.

[@KairixCiel]

this isn't true. Slave contracts were called that simply because of how long they were. It's not a breach of contract to help someone on stage who fainted or had a seizure lmfao. The members simply didn't care and didn't want people to know they were lip-syncing. They only went to visit the dancer after the public heavily criticized them.

[@keyboardsmash1231]

11:57 I couldn't help but wonder if that was a sudden period cramp. One of the things most people forget to consider about female idols is that, well, they're women. Periods cause blood loss, temperature change, low pressure and in some cases weakness and constant pain, and even if you're well trained it sometimes can be very hard to go through it while dancing, jumping and singing on a stage full of lights...

[@fwuffcat]

I was thinking about that too - I’ve always wondered how they manage to get through all these performances like that

[@Cyuutie]

it wouldn't surprise me that with all the stress and exhaustion, their periods would be more painful too so it's way worse... (and that's considering the case where they don't have painful periods to begin with...) I can't imagine how bad all that must feel, it sounds extremely exhausting and painful

@K4iOfficial Firstly, I've seen it the other way where a member is hurt and the backup dancers are strictly told not to ask them for help if they themselves don't ask for the dancers help because then it throws everyone off. Dreamcatcher is my favorite for many reasons, but the biggest being for that if someone goes down, their montra is to help them back up and if they can't get up, you stop right then and there and help them anyway. But yeah, Backup dancers get the short end of the stick unfortunately.

a friend of mine had a seizure once in class and we were all told to get away for her safety and not to touch her. only touch them if theyre actively in danger (could hurt themselves on something nearby) though i do think they shouldve put something under her head so she doesnt injure it on the hard stage there wasnt much else to do other than get off the stage and stop performing but they wouldve been fired or worse for doing so unfortunately.

[@kingmanic]

Shuhua was because of the altitude. They were in Mexico and she had altitude sickness.

[@eileencrys]

Yes but they also barely got pause days between concerts and had the concert in mexico right after they arrived, which is a widely known problem that Cube literally ignored. Most artists who have to perform in mexico city nowadays take at least a day to get adjusted to the altitude. Plus, Yuqi said the members barely slept during the last world tour, their schedule was horrible 😩

[@blarmy827]

I hope ppl understand that this is WAY worse than “busy schedules” that lead to this. Crazy diets and not enough nourishment, overworking… there’s nothing normal about this. They work in ways that would be illegal in some countries…. And so if you see videos of an idol having an off singing day… struggling to do choreo during multiple concerts and go to hate on them bc your fave group is “so much better” than these other ones… remember that all of this industry is working that hard. Nobody is perfect and dragging them over bad performances or bs like that just shows inhumane you are. These are human beings… I don’t want or need perfection from them… and if you expect it out of anyone…. Well, karma is a bitch. Educate yourself and have some compassion ffs

[@slowyourroll1146]

I can't imagine having to go through rigorous choreo practice and back-to-back stage performances on such ridiculous diet. They barely get the protein they need on a daily basis, it's no wonder there are so many cases of idols dropping on the stage.

[@zaynes5094]

They love what they do and they try not to complain about the amounts of or the number of albums and songs they do. That's why now JYP gives them plenty of time off and not just days but weeks now. It might seem nonstop content, but they enjoy what they do even if it is draining at times. Dreamcatcher always says they are busy but they never complain because they love what they do and who they work with.

[@imtherealone.6268]

@@zaynes5094 Yeah I can't disagree there. We've seen Twice shoot their music videos in the freezing cold but their music videos turned out really good despite Momo getting sea sick in I got you. Even with ITZY, I know a lot of MIDTY's miss Lia, she went on a hiatus the same reason Mina did, but as long as she's getting the proper treatment, I think that's what matters the most. Gotta take care of your mental health first. Even when Twice was here in the states, Dahuyn and Jeongyeon got covid when they were supposed to perform in Seattle, but performed at the next venue. And during one venue, there's one where Jihyo was so fatigued because she was also promoting her solo album that came out last year but she still sang on stage. Props to these idols though, from anxiety to jetlag to covid to a cold to a busy schedule, they do it for the fans.

Happened to Siyeon of Dreamcatcher a while back. Like in 2018 when they were going nonstop and she forget to drink water that morning, well she nearly passed out during warmups and felt really lightheaded but wanted to power through it until her body shut down and all the others were left asking what the problem was. Luckily, since Dreamcatcher care about each other, they wouldn't let her keep going. After that show, they all had agreed on a routine that they still do now, eat and drink water plenty before every show so you're not so dehydrated.

[@keyboardsmash1231]

He probably panicked, and wanted to get her face away from the cameras as fast as possible. He did get a lot of hate for that tho

[@HaiGudetama]

Exactly that's so weird

I’m only 2 minutes in and I don’t even want to finish watching this…. It’s so disturbing and inhumane. These poor women. I’m so glad they have each other for support and immediately go to their bandmate when they see them ill, regardless of the show/performance. This shouldn’t be so common, there’s so many clips of women collapsing! There needs to be more protection in place for their health

[@kahvipaputyyppi]

Collapsing from exhaustion can lead to heart failure, this is seriously dangerous!

[@Squirt_On_Paws]

6:20 like really?u left her there while having a seizure,that’s just messed up man

[@Meowmeter]

A combination of overworking, exhaustion, having to be perfect at all times and not eating properly because of weight control will be gruelling for anyone!

[@福澤諭吉-e9u]

吐きそうになってるのにお客さんの前では絶対吐くまいって感じで耐えてるのとか見ると悲しくなった。 メンバーが必ず体支えて裏に連れてく姿とか、自然にすぐ動けてる子達すごいなーとも。

[@MINSUNG-r7s]

Im just happy that the other members help them ❤ but I feel so sorry for them😢

[@Usergoingthroughit]

The diets the companies make them go on are crazy please to all companies let our idols rest And the hard work they all do We must let our idols rest for once

[@belerinah]

Performers sshould be allowed to eat and sleep properly jesus christ

[@oldanim]

the girl having a fever really made me upset... no one helped her on stage after 30 seconds, i actually hope she's doing okay.

[@SarahTan-n3o]

This is so sad 😢 their still humans you know? Companies should take care of these poor people 😢 not treat then like trash, not neglect them

[@user-RkqnfausEnlwlsek]

SeeYa's backdancer going into a seizure was quite a shock. I still remember to this day how SeeYa members and their company were criticized for continuing the performance for nearly a minute while the backdancer collapsed into a seizure. Would they had continued the performance if the actual members collapsed and gone into a seizure??? probably not.. but how the backdancers are looked upon and treated.. it's still a mess to this present day.

[@MINSUNG-r7s]

They work so hard for their fans ❤❤ they sometimes need a break

[@bluesaulytė]

nah ok as someone who works and volunteers in healthcare, i could not leave someone seizing on the ground a second after i see them. that can be a genuinely life-threatening situation. i understand needing to be professional on stage but in an emergency where someone could actually just straight-up die, there's no excuse why the staff (and even the other girls on stage) were not on the ground immediately protecting her head. (also NEVER pick someone up during a seizure unless you are in immediate danger, eg a fire. dont move them, dont restrain them, just protect their head, time the seizure and call an ambulance)

[@Jennierubyjane-y4y]

Brother bang Chan is such a good leader seriously❤❤❤and hope company’s doesn’t make idols so tired and hope they all have good health❤❤

[@xoticsinx6279]

it’s been years and it’s still bad you would think they would get better over the years especially in the heat they deserve breaks

[@mismiserables]

Not on the topic of the video but I wanted to add, there are flashing lights from 6:01 to 6:39

食事も制限され、睡眠時間もなく、激しいダンスにハードスケジュール… 人前に出るのに面積の少ない下着のような衣装、 次から次へと涌き出るアンチに耐えなければならない。 会社は利益の為に使い捨ての駒のように彼らを酷使… なんて過酷な職だろうか😢 彼らに休養とリフレッシュできる環境が与えられますように。

[@cai-_-]

This is honestly so heartbreaking to watch…kpop idols work so hard to the point where they are ill…but they still continue to work hard for their fans. I hope that idols can get some rest soo …

[@rxqxyyxh]

who even made a rule “even if a member feels unwell don’t stop dancing just to help them” excuse me?

[@keqingchan2549]

Im here after kotoko accident since im wondering if this usually common in kpop indudtry hoping for kotoko recovery 😢

[@TearMelisse]

6:10 most of the people are talking about this i heard that they apologized

[@AriaLo-hv4ee]

Yea, they apologized after the show and most people in the comments are mad at the group for doing nothing, but they couldn't do anything cause they had really strict contracts at the time and if they stopped performing they could've been fired

[@VirginiaIsabella]

I hope all k pop groups fell better and stay strong❤❤❤ I love all of y'all❤❤❤❤❤

[@firem3dic7]

Only in K-POP. You occasionally see this in athletes. Heat stress, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalances should be better addressed for these hard working performers before this happens. Having medical on standby should be routine. Especially in case of trauma/falls, seizures,etc…

[@sayerachowdhury6370]

6:33 members with that gurl was very inhuman, does a concert and their acting matter over a LIFE ?

[@blink2418]

I hope seeya disbanded

[@shajisudhakaran9269]

They were under slave contracts, which means thier company is soo strict they can't even help a dancer even if they wanted to. They later visited her at the hospital and gave her flowers and they cried and apologized for not being able to help

[@imserious592]

The thing about AOA Seolhyun posted in her insta that before the performance she was perfectly fine but the smoke made her dizzy and nauseous😢

[@maca8778]

They all make me sick to my stomach because they get overworked and no breaks.

[@Icansee.u]

Why do I feel like this same exact video has been uploaded every month for the past 5 years… like. The same *exact* video.

[@Prince_mt12]

That sinb situation is believed to be a product of her trying a new diet regime. After that the company quickly changed it and never happened again atleast on stage.

[@Yasminthequeen321]

6:38 wtf is wrong with them why don't they help her

[@Tiiiisslovesyou]

I believe they were under “slave contracts” and they could have got in serious trouble for helping her or doing anything not allowed on camera I think they also visited her after and apologised

[@Yasminthequeen321]

@@Tiiiisslovesyou alr but that doesn't justify not helping her up that's inhuman

[@lenalid6819]

Touching someone when they have a seizure is dangerous, you have to be medically trained to help someone and know when to do it

[@MoistCrumpet]

I really wish these poor performers could just choose not to appear on stage if they aren’t feeling well and not feel like they have to stay on. The way that these idol groups get treated is outright disgusting and I find it incredibly disturbing how common these incidents seem to be. Something definitely needs to change.

[@fireflame9628]

Also Minho and Moonbin after theirs Tiger Inside performance

[@Tulipfeilds13311]

The others reactions just show how common it is

[@Summer-be4hv]

The fact that Yuqi was that only one that cared, makes me so sad 😔 not only did the rest of them not care but they all gathered just the three of them like that as if nothing happened..WTF GIDLE

[@PrincessPetra14]

At 2:00, she isn't passing out. It looks more like she was fighting a stomach bug and couldn't hold back from heaving anymore. You can see her constantly covering her mouth and doubling over, and even hear her gagging when they stop talking in the mics and head backstage. I feel so bad for her.

[@angelwzyt]

Now Kotoko from Unis fainted :(

[@blc-it9yo]

This is why I’ve never been able to get into K-pop. The way they treat these young people is just despicable. Seeing all these girls starved half the death, the inhumanity of being contractually prohibited from helping someone having a seizure and choking on their own tongue, all the surgery, the rampant suicide… it’s just horrifying. It’s like watching elephants be abused at the circus.

[@對馬有希]

なんでどの映像もスタッフが すぐに駆けつけないのか 意味がわからない

[@samchannel542]

There is also Jessica of girls generation, she has anemia like her sister krystal, she fainted at one of their concerts and left the stage then she came back to continue the concert

[@Dorar47]

If idols are feeling too sick to perform, then they should have the right to not perform!! They're human too

[@KinectWars]

What’s more concerning is the lack of reactivity of the members

[@Leo_me12]

3:38 OMGG this is why Yuqi is my bias the way she got shusha up in a second was so sweet

[@elisecross2338]

I’m honestly a bit surprised I made it until 11:19 before I saw anyone treat an idol fainting with urgency. The girl was shocked, everyone stopped to acknowledge what happened, the man swooped in to check on her without hesitation, and everyone prioritized her health. With how limp she seemed, I could tell they were genuinely scared. I mean, I was too. This girl was knocked out cold, and despite what TV depicts, getting knocked out is a big deal. It can result in a whole lot of health problems that can lead to a decrease in quality of life (and effect her career as an idol, to convince the puppet masters making her dance). Also, I don’t understand how going on with the show dancing around their unconscious/seizing friend is a good look in the eyes of the fans. I was basically screaming “GET HER OFF THE STAGE, WHAT’RE YOU DOING” for most of these.

[@blarmy827]

6:43 what they don’t show is that jungkook was feeling faint at the beginning of the concert…. He finished the ENTIRE concert… and nobody ever knew anything was wrong until the documentary came out bc he barely let it show… there’s so much footage of him back stage where he can barely walk coming off stage bc he gives 200% out there always…. He’s known for his live vocals and powerful performances… it’s sad to see him like that back stage… I’d take a less energized performance w him happy and healthy anyday… but we all know how Kpop Stan’s are… heartless unless it’s their idol or group… it’s so sad. All of them work so so so hard.
