The event, held at Sfactory in Seongdong-gu, Seoul, was cut short three hours ahead of schedule for safety reasons. Initially planned to run from 9 p.m. Saturday to 4 a.m. Sunday, the festival concluded around 1 a.m., just before Peggy Gou’s performance.
The overcrowding prompted an immediate evacuation by police and fire authorities. While there were no major injuries reported, some attendees experienced breathing difficulties and received on-site medical attention.

Reports indicate that approximately 6,000 tickets were sold for a venue that could accommodate only about 2,000 people. Complaints have surfaced on social media, with ticket holders reporting poor temperature control and entry issues despite having valid tickets.
DJ Peggy Gou voiced her disappointment over the cancellation on social media, stating, “The police were called, but fortunately, no major incidents occurred. I have requested a prompt refund for all ticket holders.” She also assured fans that efforts are underway to schedule a new performance and asked for their patience.
