SM Entertainment has canceled its popular Halloween party event.
On October 30 KST, the agency took to their fandom platform KWANGYA CLUB to announce to users, "The live broadcast of 'SMTOWN WONDERLAND 2022,' which was scheduled to be broadcast live for free through the global platform Beyond LIVE, has been canceled."
This sudden schedule cancellation from SM Entertainment follows the aftermath of the crushing accident that occurred on October 29 in the Itaewon area, where a large crowd gathered for Halloween. The fire department announced that as of 6:30 am on October 30, 149 people had died and 76 people were injured.
Meanwhile, 'SMTOWN WONDERLAND 2022' was originally planned to be the agency's first offline Halloween party since the COVID-19 outbreak.

I was really excited for this but very much respect the decision. It sucks how some ruin events for others, people are excited for there own events since the pandemic. what ever really happened that night needs to be revealed.
