JTBC stated on the 10th, "A fire broke out in the stage set during the performance, and the artists were immediately evacuated from the stage. The fire was extinguished using fire extinguishers. Afterwards, the venue was ventilated and reorganized, and we checked if any audience members were in poor condition and wished to leave. Since there were no such requests and the artists were in good condition, we proceeded with the recording as planned and successfully finished it."

They continued, "There were no casualties. We originally asked if any audience members were feeling uncomfortable at the venue, and one person raised their hand, so we advised them to leave. However, they expressed their intention to stay and watch the performance again, so we made arrangements for them to sit back down. The production staff monitored the situation closely."

They further explained, "During the filming, a drone used for recording slightly touched KYUJIN' hair. We immediately halted the filming, checked the artist's condition, and since there were no issues, we concluded the recording."

Prior to this announcement, there were online posts stating that an incident, including a fire, occurred during the pre-recording of NMIXX's comeback stage. Netizens wrote, "There was a fire on stage, and someone collapsed," "The stage was beautiful, but there was a small fire. However, they didn't evacuate us properly, and someone fainted. They later apologized, but they didn't let us leave," and other similar comments. Some netizens also pointed out a lack of safety measures.

Meanwhile, NMIXX is set to release their third single album, 'A Midsummer NMIXX's Dream,' on the 11th as part of their comeback.
