📍Kualalumpur
🎫Ticketing method: GoLive Asia
I decided to attend this concert only one month before the show, so I had to find a ticket quickly. After searching for three days, I was able to purchase a VIP ticket through the official website.
For concerts outside Korea and Japan, tickets are often not sold out immediately on the first day. Before looking for resale tickets, I recommend checking the official ticketing website first.
📍Taipei
🎫Ticketing method: tixCraft
I heard that there were still tickets available, so I decided to attend only two weeks before the concert. I purchased my ticket directly from the official website. Although my seat was not the best, I was very happy that I went because the group performed a new song for the first time.
📍Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul
🎫Ticketing method: Melon ticket
For this concert, I got my ticket through the official ticketing system myself. At Korean concerts, there are often moving stages or carts that come close to the audience. Because of this, when I attend alone, I always try to choose an aisle seat.
The main stage may feel a little farther away, but I prefer an aisle seat because it gives me a better chance of seeing the artists when they come around.
When choosing a seat, don’t only focus on how close it is to the main stage. Consider the stage layout and your personal viewing preferences.
📍Seoul Olympic Stadium
🎫Ticketing method: Resale Ticket
This concert was held at one of the largest venues in Korea. However, it was extremely popular, and I was unable to get a ticket through official ticketing. I eventually purchased a resale ticket.
Resale tickets for very popular Korean concerts can cost around five times the original price, and premium seats can cost more than ten times the original price. However, this concert became one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life, so I have no regrets.
Resale tickets can be extremely expensive, especially for popular shows and good seats. Always check official ticketing first and understand the risks and costs before considering resale tickets.
What I learned 👀💚
These experiences taught me that there is no single way to get a concert ticket. Depending on the country, popularity of the concert, timing, and seat preference, the best strategy can be different.
My advice is simple: check the official website first, prepare early when possible, and choose your seat based on the type of concert experience you want.
