apparently people rushed there having been alerted to a celebrity cameo of sorts.
And.. large crowds , high people density per square meter, turns into a moving fluid, people in the back can't tell what's happening in the front, they push forward, people in the front get physically crushed and asphyxiate.
Reason # 37 why Tp4 never goes outside.

so extremely ****ed up, I cannot believe people just ignored those in need. That is a crazy bodycount due to people being straight up selfish *******s. And we still don't know what the cause was.

Similar disasters have happened in badly designed sports stadiums and at music festivals. Too many people in a small area, crowds pushing from behind and people getting crushed.
Only a couple hours earlier, I watched a live-stream from a outdoor street Halloween celebration in Tokyo (because I'm a bit of a japanophile, sosumi...) There, there were cops with megaphones doing crowd-control to keep people moving, preventing them from crowding too much in one area. I found them really annoying then, but after Seoul, I see them in a new light.

well, they can't tell what's happening between front and back, that's the problem.
this type of thing happens every 2 years at that pilgrimage temple where, kills hundreds

Although I firmly believe that humans are "social creatures" (even though I am somewhat of a "loner" myself, I treasure my relationships with that small number of friends and family who are close to me) I have never enjoyed being part of a "herd"
Even though my love of music is possibly my greatest passion, and includes many different styles, the last time I went to a stadium concert was more than half of my lifetime ago, and it has been at least 20 years since I went to a concert venue of more than 2000 people.
