I never knew.... EXO sold out STADIUMS IN CHINA....

FUCKING HELL.....

How come I didn't know? This is big stuff. I usually see "Arenas" or "Sports Center" and assume something of 20K capacity at max.

It wasn't until WhyKnock posted it, I came to know....

So these are the stadium concerts which I ignored/never knew for some reason :-

1. June 14, 2014 - Wuhan Sports Center Stadium (54,000 capacity)

2. June 28, 2014 - Chongqing Olympic Sports Center (58, 680 capacity)

3. July 5, 2014 - Chengdu Sport Centre ( 39,225 capacity)

4. July 27, 2014 - Helong Stadium (55,000 capacity)

5. August 2, 2014 - Shaanxi Province Stadium (50,100 capacity)

This is just 2 years into their debut. Fcking legendary.

6. August 1, 2015 - Chengdu Sport Centre Stadium

7. August 22, 2015 - Shaanxi Province Stadium

8. Sept 12, 2015 - Chongqing Olympic Sports Center

9. December 12, 2015 - Nanjing Olympics Sports Center (61, 443 capacity)

10. Septemeber 30, 2016 - Huanglong Stadium (52, 672 capacity)

------------------------------------

This shows they could have gone even more in China... (The THAAD was really like a doomsday weapon).

Well, can't believe I didn't know even though I've been a fan for such a long time.

Did y'all know?

Quote from Kireta

What? I thought exo wasn’t popular

Ikr. But fr, did you know?

Quote from Kireta

No I don’t usually follow their concert attendance numbers or keep up with charts. I only know if I see a tweet about it

But also, I don’t think they ever filled up these stadiums to its full capacity or else I think we would have heard more about it

I don't think so because EXO didn't have twitter account at that time and fandom activity was more focused on tumblr etc...

EXO being a hot favorite in China, I don't really believe they wouldn't sell out... The data is limited on this but I feel like they did sell out otherwise they wouldn't have added dates in EXOplanet 2 and 3.

Quote from Bpsosoro

Low key wish their wasn’t a Kpop ban would’ve been awesome to see how much they’d do

Me too.

Quote from sveznalica

I wonder how huge their tours would be if THAAD didn't happen. Their following in China is insane

There's so much they COULDN'T do because of THAAD.

A new info... If anyone else didn't know...

Quote from sveznalica

I belive that SM and exo had many things planned (I mean just look at Sehun unreleased movies and tv shows) but it never happened because of THAAD.

SM please open your vault and give us some unreleased content and 10th anniversary gift

Fckkkk. It makes me mad

Quote from soshilovelife

I knew about them selling stadiums in Korea and holding a Tokyo Dome tour way earlier in their career than senior groups, but this is new information to me too.

I underestimated them.

Quote from loneranger1

are you just pulling a leg or are so new to kpop

they won Daesangs 3 years in a row dude

Apparently I classified "Sport Center" as arenas when they were in fact stadiums. A critical mistake.

I know about the daesangs. I haven't seen much about these concerts that's why.
