Today (10th), THE BOYZ, just before the concert starts, received a report that explosives were placed at Seoul KSPO DOME (Olympic Gymnastics Arena), and announced a sudden change in performance time. According to police and fire authorities, this afternoon, a fax was sent to the Korea Sports Industry Development, which operates Olympic Park, stating "high-performance bombs have been placed in multiple locations within KSPO DOME." The sender, Mr. A, left a message saying, "The explosion time is from 4:43 PM to 8:10 PM on August 10, and many people will die." In response, the Korea Sports Industry Development immediately reported to the police, who cooperated with fire authorities to dispatch to KSPO DOME. Currently, there are no reported casualties. On this day, KSPO DOME was scheduled to host THE BOYZ's 4th world tour "THE BOYZ 'THE BLAZE' WORLD TOUR in SEOUL." The agency, One Hundred, announced via official SNS that "due to facility inspections inside the KSPO DOME performance venue, the opening time and performance start time will be changed. We will inform you of the exact time as soon as it is confirmed. We ask for the understanding and cooperation of the audience." KSPO DOME also communicated through its official website that "around 1:50 PM on August 10, a report was received stating that explosives were placed inside KSPO DOME, and police and fire authorities are currently conducting safety inspections of the facility." They added, "Once the safety of the facility is ensured, the event organizers will separately inform whether the performance scheduled for today will proceed." Subsequently, One Hundred announced again via official SNS that "due to the report of explosives being placed inside KSPO DOME, police and fire authorities conducted a safety inspection, which has now been completed, and the opening will start at 4:45 PM," and "the start time for THE BOYZ's performance today has been changed to 6 PM."
