An attendee wrote:
"The stage caught on fire, someone fainted, and a drone tore out some of Kyujin's hair. The pre-recording was a horrifying experience. Instead of being moved because I had heard NMIXX's new song before its official release, I felt scared at that moment."
Later that evening on the same day (July 10), JTBC's "K-909" finally released an official statement addressing the incident. They pointed out that the cause of fire was due to a stage prop, which was immediately put out with a fire extinguisher.
However, "K-909" denied the claims of someone fainting inside the set, commenting that there was an audience member who was feeling unwell, but ultimately resolved to stay inside the venue and finish the recording.
"Since there was a problem with a set's certain part, the pink muhly grass, which was a stage prop, ended up catching flames. When the fire was found, we started evacuating NMIXX, and put the fire out using an extinguisher. Afterwards, we ventilated the place."
"During the filming, an audience member was feeling ill, so a staff member accompanied the member on the way out. This audience member was advised to go home, but insisted to re-enter the site and assured it was okay."
"The audience member sat down on a chair to finishing the remaining shoot. After assessing that all viewers were doing fine, we resumed our recording."

"K-909" followed up on the reports of Kyujin being struck by a drone, stating that after it knotted on Kyujin's hair, the staff checked on her condition. Moreover, the production staff also assured there were no casualties on the set and that preventive measures will be taken.
"When the drone got clipped on Kyujin's hair, we immediately stopped the shoot to see if Kyujin was doing okay. After we confirmed that nothing was wrong with Kyujin, we carried on and finished the recording."
"We would like to inform you that there were no casualties involved, but we will take extra measures to prevent similar accidents from happening in the future."
