The three injured spectators were rushed to a hospital and treated for sprains and bruises, with doctors recommending two weeks of rest, according to SM Entertainment, the group's agency.

"We deeply apologize to those affected and their families," the company said in a statement. "As the organizer, we take full responsibility and will ensure thorough safety checks to prevent similar accidents in the future."

The Korea Times and Yonhap News Agency reported the details based on the agency's account.
