KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 9 — K-pop group BIGBANG was forced to cut short its Bangkok concert last night after heavy rain, strong winds and lightning raised safety concerns.

The group was performing at Rajamangala National Stadium on the second night of its two-day Bangkok stop when worsening weather prompted organisers to halt the show.

According to South Korean entertainment outlet Sports Chosun, the concert began without rain before conditions deteriorated during the performance.

The members initially continued performing despite the downpour, but increasing thunder and lightning eventually led to the decision to stop.
