Idle member Yuqi expressed concern about a large fire that broke out in Hong Kong.
On the 26th, Yuqi posted on her social account account the message "I hope everyone is safe" along with a pleading praying emoji.
Although the post provided no further explanation, it appears to refer to the large fire that occurred in Hong Kong. That afternoon, a large fire broke out at a high-rise APT. complex in the Tai Po area of northern Hong Kong, the Wong Fuk Court (Wang Fuk Court), causing many casualties.
The complex where the fire occurred consists of eight buildings in total, and it was reported that about 4,800 people in 2,000 households resided there. Of the seven buildings where fire broke out, four have been extinguished, and three buildings remain under firefighting operations about 16 hours after the fire began. Meanwhile, on the morning of the 27th, John Lee, Hong Kong chief executive, said the death toll from the fire was 44 people, and 29 people were taken to hospitals with injuries. In addition, the number of missing persons was tallied at 279.
In particular, the K-pop awards show "2025 MAMA AWARDS (hereinafter 2025 MAMA)" was scheduled to be held at Hong Kong's Kai Tak Stadium on the 28th and 29th. Idle, the group Yuqi belongs to, had departed the day before to attend "2025 MAMA," but there is now discussion that the event could be postponed due to the large fire disaster in Hong Kong.
However, in response, MAMA said, "We will contact you after confirming the related details," expressing a cautious stance.
