Thousands flock to K-pop group Super Junior’s sold-out concert in Hong Kong, despite Covid-19 curbs on shows
- ‘Finally things are returning to normal and artists are coming back to Hong Kong,’ 25-year-old fan says at AsiaWorld-Expo event
- Under city’s Covid rules, concertgoers had to wear masks and they were not allowed to consume food or drinks at venue
Thousands of fans flocked to the final concert of K-pop group Super Junior’s visit in Hong Kong, despite a series of Covid-19 restrictions on shows, with the two-day event marking the return of Korean singers in the city.
The sold-out performance at AsiaWorld-Expo on Sunday by the nine-member boy group attracted eager fans from the city and overseas.
Hong Kong resident Katie Tsang said she was “emotional and touched” that her idols were hosting a show in the city, but it was a shame there were pandemic-related restrictions on the event.
“They were supposed to do part of their world tour in Hong Kong in 2020, but they didn’t, so now that they are finally here, I am really touched and I was really looking forward to the show,” the 22-year-old said.
