This study aims to determine the psychological dynamics of victims who saw firsthand the tragedy of the football supporter at the Arema match with Persebaya at Kanjuruhan Stadium. This research uses phenomenological qualitative methods. Participants in this study consisted of two people using purposive sampling technique. The criteria are adult men or women who are in the location at the time of the incident after the soccer match. The results showed that male participants tried to accept the reality of the incident that occurred. There is an uncomfortable feeling that arises when seeing and reading news or posts on social media that corner the Arema supporters. For him, the existence of a figure who is used as a figure who strengthens other supporters to get up and be strong. In addition, with support from the media who empathized with the Kanjuruhan incident, participants felt touched and stronger to get up. In female participants, symptoms of PTSD (Post traumatic stress disorder) appeared, characterized by feelings of sadness, withdrawal and crying. Female participants can rise from PTSD (Post traumatic stress disorder) due to support from family and fellow aremania supporters. Male participants did not find symptoms of PTSD (Post traumatic stress disorder), due to strong role models and social support.
