(YNAO) report on behalf of a larger collaboration:

We observed the field of GRB 121123A (Helder et al., GCN 13982) with 2.4m Gao-Mei-Gu (GMG) telescope. Observations
started at ~1.5 hrs after the burst. The optical afterglow of this burst was detected. The preliminary magnitude was R~19.2. 
observation is on going.
   
We thank the GMG staff, especially Hong-Yan Gao, and De-Qing Wang for doing these observations.
