1 Million is now the threshold for top group sales - but why only 4 of them had concerts at the biggest venue?

Quote from KpopJop

I get what you mean now. I thought you were saying that Koreans don’t enjoy live music which sounded absurd, but it sounds like you were making a comparison specifically for fandom-driven idol concert attendance in SK versus that for outside SK

the idea of an entire race of people not enjoying live music had me puzzled ngl

Oh no.. I definitely did not mean that Koreans don't enjoy live music. Just that the way and means they do it, does not to be concerts with huge audience etc., But that is also changing.

Dw my friend BP will hold a stadium concert in Korea next year 👍

Actually that place is the only place in Korea with more than 50,000 capacity. The soccer stadium is now not used for concerts because of complaints from K-O-R-E-A_Nsoccer fans, and the next largest is the Gochuck which has perhaps a 25,000 (usually less)capacity.

Not true.

There are 3 more outside Seoul (one just below at 49K) but I do not know how good they are for concerts.

Incheon Munhak Stadium - Wikipedia

Obviously something like half the population of South Korea lives in the Seoul metro area, so the 2 stadiums in the south of the country would be hard for anyone to sell out (outside BTS).

That only leaves the stadium in Incheon, but that is like an hour from Seoul, close to their biggest international airport.

I think the other acts still didn't pay enough filial duty to the singer that sold only 450

Did NCT units pull good capacity - 40000+?

In any case if Jamsil is still open, then it gives an opportunity for a GG to be the "First K-pop Girl Group" to crack Jamsil Olympic.

Blackpink has the best chance, then Twice, but do other GGs have the pull to get 40000+ people?

Quote from WhyKnock

NCT Dream sold around 25,000 a night. NCT 127 will be similar.

It is already kinda cold in Korea and by Nov it will be too cold to have an outdoor event there.

Do you like outdoor events?
