In response to the incident, the fan who threw the object posted an apology letter on X, expressing deep remorse and stating that they were “sorry a hundred times.” They admitted to throwing the fan, knowing it was prohibited, because they saw others throwing slogans and proceeded to throw the fan on stage “in an angered state.” The account has since been deleted, but screenshots of the apology have circulated widely.
