Mirror concert accident: event organised for birthday of injured Hong Kong dancer Mo Li as fans call for inquiry results to be released soon
- Well-wishers send love to dancer, still in hospital after giant television screen fell on him at July concert
- More than 100 supporters queue to leave messages of support at city boutique; many appeal for government to speed up inquiry
Fans and members of the public on Wednesday sent their best wishes to a dancer who suffered serious injuries when a giant screen fell on him as he performed at a concert by top boy band Mirror, with some calling for authorities to release the results of an investigation into the tragedy as soon as possible.
More than 100 supporters formed a queue outside the Still House boutique in Causeway Bay’s Haven Street to leave words of encouragement for dancer Mo Li Kai-yin, who is in danger of paralysis from the neck down after the incident in July.
“I hope this assembly of fans will show that we still care about this accident and haven’t forgotten him,” Fish Cheung, a pastor in her forties, said.
The nine-day event was organised by friends of Li to celebrate his 28th birthday, which was on Tuesday, and to drum up public support for the dancer.
Participants collected a feather-shaped sticker and a keychain with a picture of Li before they wrote messages of support on Post-it notes or cards.
