[Pannchoa] Knets are flabbergasted by Bighit's labels concert prices

[My Everything]

Attending artists: Enhypen, Nu'est, Gfriend, TXT, Bumzu, BTS

Location: KINTEX (the place that all fans wanted to avoid the most..)

original post:  here

1.  So what happened to that drama where they were using BTS members' real names? 

2. Seriously the first time I saw those prices, I thought that my eyes were lying to me 

3. This makes me less bad about skipping the concertㅋㅋㅋㅋ I'm not going to give them all this money if it's going to be a collab stage

4. Even if it's expensive, I'm sure people will be attending right? ㅜㅜ

5. Seriously too expensive..... For a concert at KINTEX.. And the seats will be randomized too.. for 150,000 won???????ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ  It's not even a ticket I'll be able to get through normal ticketingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ So we don't even know what seat nor zone we'll be sitting at? F*ck ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. I f*cking hate the idea of a joint stage, is Bighit dumb? Are they not able to understand the fans? F*ck!!!!!ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ I f*cking hate joint concerts f*ck and those prices are f*cking hight too ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Do they think that BTS fans are pushovers? F*ck they think that we'll pay this price, we're really f*cked, why do we need to pay for everything all the time? They really think we're f*cking pushoversㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ They f*cking can't think straight I just want to smack them. Those prices are way too expensive

7. Those prices in that location just makes no logical senseㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I'll just watch from home. And it seems like this will become a recurring this?? F*ck

8. Are they crazy with those prices?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ F*ck I don't mind spending that amount if it was a concert of just my kids, but I feel so f*cked. I was dreaming about how happy I would be in I could see my bias at the end of 2020 in real lifeㅋㅋㅋ  But instead, I'm having a labels concert, it just feels like they strike me behind my head

9. It almost seems like Bighit wants to kick their fans out of the fandom... Why are they like that??? 

10. I'd be f*cking willing to pay this price for a concert with just my bias... But this is still expensive.. ㅠㅠ

That's about the price for any kpop concert in Europe though. My friend spent that much to see Nu'est before they were even popular and she didn't even stan. I myself spent that to go to B.A.P's concert and I learnt the songs and the fanchants the week before. The kpop thirst is real over here.

It's offline, so they have to distance ++ = renting out a place for like 20% capacity is expensive...so honestly I understand why it's expensive.

Yes they could do it online only, but I feel like artists saying they miss live performances, and fans missing live performances made that decision happen.

meanwhile, i still have my valid ticket for the BTS north american tour concert that was indefinitely postponed >_>

we all do lol XD 

 

 

edit: kfans unfortunately had their concert "canceled" so the money was refunded. many of them donated to other causes tho, like covid.

plus they know majority of the fandoms are going to illegally stream it lol ><

so bighit/idols are basically relying on the minority who are willing to pay.

imo, I don't think the prices are thaaaatttt bad. However I probably wouldn't want to pay that much for a concert with multiple groups, especially if you only really like one group who will only take up a fraction of the set.

omg sameeee. I can accept it as long as it stays postponed and is eventually rescheduled. If it gets cancelled, I'd just be so bummed.

[GiganticMint121]

I can understand not wanting to pay that much if you only want to see one group. And on top of that the seating is RANDOMIZED. Like???????? I'm not going to pay that much to sit all the way in the back and watch my fave for 20min

[Arrivederci]

In shocking turn of events, corporation takes action that will make them more money. More news at eight.

They haven't announced any prices for the stream so it's probably going to be free online. A good opportunity for them to expand the Weverse userbase.

Biggest anti Pinkpanda with another hot take that is separated from reality.

yea it could be free. tho they still have time to announce the online prices later.

about usebase: tbh not sure how much impact this will have on weverse. fans following the groups who are attending already know about weverse. and non-fans who are curious, the weverse link will be like any other "free" link for streaming a kpop event.

I mean it's a normal price for a concert? Especially with all the covid-related safety precautions they will have to implement inside the concert hall.

If they want to attend for only one artist then they should maybe not go this kind of concert? I don't really understand why some people are reacting like that! 

Anyways, if the online viewing is free there will be a loooot of people watching! I hope they will be able to handle that! 

[starsocks]

I like the idea of a bh labels concert but things would've been soooo much less messy if they hadn't had it on that day smh

A free concert is going to attract curious people / more casual fans that haven't registered yet because the Weverse as is doesn't interest them.

yes, i don't disagree people will be attracted to the free link. (a free streaming link is always welcome in the kpop community lol)

however i don't think it will have much impact actually gaining many new members for weverse. but i could be wrong

There are a lot of more casual fans who have had no interest in joining Weverse up to this point because they don't care about the artist interaction or the exclusive paid content. A free concert is going to make a ton of new people register.

I think that the in person concert is very expensive on purpose - they don't want every single Korean ARMY to enter the raffle, and probably favor people who are interested in several groups.

hmm there's already free shows on weverse. but since this is a concert, perhaps you're right. 

agree

[Mccuish]

That seems to be the price of a normal western concert.

I've still got my valid ticket right now. It's the only concert I have that hasn't released the reschedule date for the concert.

I can't tell if that on your signature is a japanese man or a white woman and it's been on my mind for days. Please tell me.

 

Edit: it's just that I took for granted it's a white woman for the past few days, but then I saw that you're a fan of some japanese singers so I thought it would make sense for you to have one as a signature, but I can't for the life of me tell which is it, japanese man or white woman.

omg guise we need to put some pressure on bighit LOL WHERE ARE THE RESCHEDULED DATES BANG PD

i understand that things are unsafe and unpredictable right now, but it would be nice to at least have a date for 2022 or something T_T

i hope its not cancelled but if it does, we better get a refund or i'll take bang pd straight to small claims.

Bighit can't control the uncontrollable. So there's no point putting pressure on them, right now.

Bighit has to wait for each country government and the organizers. Specifically the main one they're working with in the West is 'Live Nation'.

'Live Nation' has announced they hope to start doing tours again in the summer. No guarantees tho. However Bighit can't just have "social distancing" concerts they need the full capacity again if everyone is going to get their seats back. 

So like many fans I don't mind holding on to my tickets till I'm able to see BTS again.  TT TT

People are allow to cancel their tickets themselves. BH/LN already said everyone would get a refund. I assume they will hold on to that claim if it's ever officially "cancelled"...DON'T CANCEL IT! LOL I CAN WAIT!!!

Lmaooo no it’s not a white woman but hyde, the vocalist of the japanese band l’arc en ciel when he was young a lot of people thought it was a woman at first so don’t worry haha

Omg, I know Hyde (not well obviously). He truly does look pretty and mixed. I had to know! I ended up watching interviews for like an hour, so good looking!
