The concert, organized and managed by Mecima Pro, faced one mismanagement after another, often risking the safety of the audience members. First, the organizers abruptly changed the venue to an open-roof stadium, leaving fans concerned about the lack of protection amid Indonesia’s severe weather. They also re-adjusted the seating plan, offering fans no refunds for their tickets.

[UPDATE] DAY6 3RD WORLD TOUR <FOREVER YOUNG> in JAKARTA – Venue Change.
My Day, please read the following announcement for details regarding the venue change. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding. Thank you.

On the day of the concert, fans were left waiting outside in the middle of thunderstorms, heavy rains, and strong winds without any shelter. According to the attendees, while the representatives of Mecima Pro were inside the venue, sitting up front, comfortably, fans inside and outside were protesting against their mismanagement. Even the members themselves looked uneasy and apologized during the soundcheck. DAY6’s staff members were seen having heated exchanges with the Mecima Pro team.

THIS IS WHAT THE PROMOTER DIDN’T SHOW YOU @jypnation @day6official@LiveNation @LiveNationKpop FANS LEFT OUTSIDE THE VENUE. NO REFUND AFTER THE CONCERT WAS MOVED FROM JIS TO MADYA. MECIMAPRO STILL OWES AROUND ₩330,000,000 TO 1,900 FANS — AND COUNTING.

Despite the challenges, DAY6 pulled through the concert and gave the fans the performance they deserved. However, in the end, they skipped a concert ritual in support of fans’ protests against the organizers.

After the concert was over, when the members came on stage to take a picture with the entire audience, they initially held up the support banners, mistaking them to be fan-made. But as they were about to pose with the banners, fans in the front row shouted out that the organizers had made those banners, and they didn’t want them in the photo. Hearing this, all four of the DAY6 members put the banners down and proceeded to take the photo.

and also that fucking slogan made by promoter!!!!

🍀SLOGAN ANIYAAAA

and DAY6 really didn’t raise the slogan during the photo session😭😭😭😭😭

Dowoon even put the slogan under his foot and he’s the one who told the members not to use that damn slogan 😭😭😭😭

and everyone… https://t.co/JhyJgOiaiT

during photo time, the members were about to pose with a hand banner made by that shitty promoter, but mydays called out that it wasn't fanmade and asked for 'no banner.' dowoon was the first to catch on and told the others not to take the photo with it🥺pic.twitter.com/ltfhqCPgpY

Taking pictures with support banners is almost customary in any Korean artist’s concert. So, DAY6 skipping it in support of their fans’ outrage against the concert organizers touched the hearts of many. Some fans were also heartbroken at the unnecessary chaos that the members had to power through for no fault of their own.

This is the awkwardest concert I've ever seen fancams of. ☹️ The Mydays who have been through hell and still trying to to get their message across. The members still trying their best onstage despite the confusion. I truly need MECIMA to burn. https://t.co/INejtDDEAZ

it’s clear that during the concert, the boys tried to suppress their emotions to uplift everyone, so they probably returned home exhausted with a heavy heart :( https://t.co/0ieDLEBghd
