In this case, people in the front row often find that they will start to leave and escape in one after another, while people in the back row continue to crowd forward without knowing it, which will eventually lead to group confusion and distraction.

Conclusion

Most of these dead people are young people under 29 years old. They lost their lives because of a very unimportant so-called festival in the West. It is not worth it. So I think Orientals should not get involved in Western festivals, unless South Korea also wants to apply for this foreign festival as intangible cultural heritage .
