The four members of MAMAMOO performed for their followers on stage on September 24 in honour of the Incheon Airport Sky Festival. The performance included fireworks that blew up to excite the stage, as is customary at festivals. MAMAMOO member Wheein was the one who got the short end of the stick during one of the dances since the lingering dust caused her to suffer an eye injury when the fireworks went off. She received an immediate pass from the programme and didn't return for the remainder of it.

Her management company THE L1VE responded by issuing a message to inform the supporters. They acknowledged the injuries and informed the audience that the artist had received the necessary care and was now resting. This is the complete notice.

“Hello, this is THE L1VE.

Today, our artist Wheein complained of pain in her eye due to residue of a stage effect device while completing her activities. Therefore, immediately after the incident occurred, she visited the hospital and received a precise ophthalmic treatment. According to the examination results, she received the diagnosis of a cornea wound from a foreign substance.

Currently, she is receiving appropriate treatment and medicine and is in a stable condition. If there is a change in her future schedule, we will announce it in a separate notice.

We ask for your understanding for the late night notice but we wanted to quickly update MooMoo [MAMAMOO’s fan club] who must have been surprised at the news about Wheein today. We would like to express our apologies for causing concern to the MooMoos who always show support for Wheein, due to this unintentional accident.

In the future, we will proceed with the schedule considering the artist's health as the top priority for Wheein's full recovery.

Thank you.”
