Heechul injured by fan at “Super Show 3 in Shanghai” concert

On March 5th, Super Junior held their “Super Show 3” concert in Shanghai, but unfortunately, they were exposed to another incident where a member was injured by a fan.

Last time, member Yesung was hit by a projectile as he was crossing the stage; this time, it wasHeechul who got hurt, as a fan’s placard hit him in the face while he was in the midst of performing.

After being hit, Heechul was forced to briefly pause and cover his face, but eventually walked off stage without being able to lift his face. There were reports that he suffered a cut to his eye, but both Mighty Mouth’s Sangchu and Miss A’s Jia assured fans that he was okay.

Sangchu tweeted, “Super Junior fans! I just got off the phone with Heechul and he said not to worry, it’s a bit manly to have at least one cut on his face. He may say that, but I think he’s upset and having a difficult time… Please don’t throw anything on stage! Heechul’s Twitter said not to.”

OMG, you crazy people! Respect your idols and don't go throwing things at them. PLEASE!!!

[UPDATE]

Through an interview with Star News on March 7th, Super Junior’s Heechul discussed his recent injury, which he received during the group’s concert in Shanghai. Heechul also gave a polite request to Super Junior’s beloved fans.

Heechul shared,

During the middle of our ‘Super Show 3‘ concert in Shanghai, I headed towards the side of the stage in order to get closer to my fans. A fan threw a present, which ended up hitting the left side of my face. Although it wasn’t a big injury, it ripped the skin under my eye.

After arriving in Korea on the 6th, SM Entertainment was able to reach a hospital (despite it being a Sunday) and got me proper treatment. I’m not worried about my injury so much as I am about this happening again to another member. I know that it’s all because our fans love us so much, but I hope they’ll realize that if accidents like this continue to occur, we cannot show everything we’ve prepared for them on stage.”

Heechul was unable to attend the ending stage for the concert that night, and because his injury couldn’t be covered by makeup, he wasn’t able to attend the recording for MBC’s “The Night of Shining Memories” on March 8th.

He concluded, “There are fans who throw presents at the other members, but I hope they will stop that. They have to stop in order for Super Junior to present the best performance possible, and for fans to enjoy that experience.”
