First things first: Onew is fine. At Music Bank's finale, with all of the performers gathered on stage for SNSD's victory, the structure holding up the lights became loose (you can see people holding it up in this fan-taken picture), and one of the light fixtures fell right towards the unsuspecting Onew. Luckily, his Super Junior sunbaes Siwon and Kyuhyun prevented the fixture from hitting him, but the shock of the whole ordeal caused SHINee's leader to faint. He was carried backstage, and due to signs of psychological distress, was taken to the hospital.

While the video looks frightening, SM Entertainment has released a statement saying that Onew is now stable will be resting for the time being. Onew's famous sangtae (condition), while often churning out amusing moments, is really starting to pose a danger to the young man. This incident, coupled with his earlier tooth-breaking accident, is displaying a slightly disturbing trend for SHINee World. The weirdest part of the Onew Condition is that many of his strange moments are not even his fault - they just sort of happen. Hopefully physics will be kinder to the leader in the future.
Speaking of the future, SHINee performed a cover of H.O.T.'s 1997 hit "We Are The Future" for Music Bank's mid-year celebration:

The slip is probably due to the rain at the end of 2NE1's Umbrella stage. Music Bank's stage must have some kind of grudge against the SHINee leader. Key also serves up some SM Family love at 2:17.
And just because SHINee's dance machine Taemin has stated numerous times that his inspiration was the late Michael Jackson, here's a small SHINee ode to the King of Pop:
