Hong Kong boy band Mirror “will keep singing”, the group’s leader said as it finished the opening show of a 16-concert run on Monday, the first since an accident at a performance in 2022 seriously injured a dancer.

The 12 band members lined up on stage after two encores and spoke to the more than 14,000 fans at the sold-out show at AsiaWorld-Expo.

The group performed non-stop for close to three hours, before leader Yeung Lok-man addressed the fan-packed hall.

“Often, we may step up to say much, but we will keep on singing and keep on dancing, as long as [all you fans] are here,” he told the crowd.

The group sang “We All Are”, a ballad released three months after the accident that left dancer Mo Li Kai-yin paralysed, with a few members choking up.

Mirror performed two encores before they ended the show with “We Are”, the theme song for their 2022 concert series, which they have not performed since the accident, which also injured dancer Chang Tsz-fung.
