Lokman Yeung slammed for poster resembling 2022 concert tragedy
24 Jul – It's been nearly three years since the tragic MIRROR incident at the Hong Kong Coliseum, but the tragedy is still fresh in people's minds. Which is why MIRROR's group leader Lokman Yeung drew flak from netizens, after he and the group's agency decided to release a poster of his new song that seemed to trigger people's memory of the incident. Lokman, who was promoting his new single, "FLY", posted the promotional poster that depicted him in mid-air, holding up what looks like a falling large screen while being suspended. Netizens quickly drew parallels to the 2022 MIRROR concert incident, where one of MIRROR's dancers Mo was seriously injured after an LCD screen unexpectedly collapsed on top of him. Netizens lambasted the poster design as insensitive, with some accusing MIRROR's management, Makerville, of being "heartless." On the other hand, some fans defended Lokman and the team, saying that it was only meant to show him doing a handstand, but that the image was flipped. In response to the backlash, MIRROR's team deleted the original post and reuploaded a new version featuring only the same text but a different image. It now shows Lokman standing atop a glowing platform. (Photo Source: MIRROR IG, On CC, MP Weekly)

HK Singer Keung To Assures Fans He's Fine After Accidentally Falling Into The Sea
It was a scary moment for fans of Hong Kong boyband MIRROR after news emerged that member Keung To (姜濤) fell into the sea. Thankfully, he was rescued and treated at the hospital, but that didn't stop speculations from rising. According to reports, the incident happened around 4:30pm yesterday (24th June 2025). Local police received a call that a man had fallen into the water near the Western Wholesale Food Market in Sai Wan. The man was later identified as Keung To. The MIRROR vocalist was subsequently rescued by a vessel and brought ashore. He was later transported to Queen Mary Hospital for medical evaluation and treatment. Following the incident, Keung To shared a few posts through Instagram Stories to assure fans of his well-being. In the first post, the singer explained, 'It was just a small accident caused by my own carelessness. I'm fine, so please don't worry. I hope there won't be any speculation. I'm truly sorry for causing concern.' In another post, the 26-year-old shared a thumbs-up gesture with the caption, 'Don't need to worry, everyone. I'll see you tomorrow.' Keung To's agency, Makerville, provided more details to clarify the incident. According to the company, the idol was jogging on the Sai Wan waterfront when he felt dizzy and unwell. It was implied that he fainted and fell into the sea by accident. Makerville also said that Keung To has no serious injuries and is now resting. Keung To and his agency also thanked those who helped in the rescue. Before Makerville issued the statement, there were allegations that the idol had purposely dived into the water. There were also reports that Keung To may have been drunk or consumed pills before the incident, sparking speculations of a suicide attempt. Following the incident, fans and netizens are now rallying support for the singer, sharing uplifting and positive messages on his social media. Whatever the cause of the incident was, we're glad Keung To is safe and sound now. He is expected to attend a fan meeting later today (Wednesday, 25th June 2025), so we hope everything goes smoothly.
