N/A ◇ Although it’s less likely to happen, some of the balls unexpectedly burst in other countries. Out of over a million balls sold in dozens of countries, 26 bursts were reported leaving six injured. However, there is no standard about the burst strengths in Korea, and no injuries have been reported as well.
