The interviewee, Ms. Lin, said that she had seen the video related to the incident of trampling people in Itaewon, describing the crowd in the film as "people stacking people" and "someone holding a dizzy girl", bluntly saying that the same thing happened in Lanzhou. Kwai Fong, "It's really scary."
Although Lan Kwai Fong was crowded with crucian carp tonight, Ms. Lin was not afraid of the trampling incident in South Korea, because she was just staying in a bar with her friends instead of walking on the street.
Talking about the flow of people in Lan Kwai Fong this Halloween, Ms. Lin believes that the number of people this year is much higher than that in the past two years, which is believed to be the impact of the restricted gathering order.
Many people went out to Lan Kwai Fong to celebrate Halloween.
