What are your main reasons for not going to a K-POP concert?

The closest places to me that artists will come to is a 6 hour drive, which means it's at least $300 for me to attend one. So I'd have to REALLY like the group. And some kpop groups don't even come to venues that close to me, which turns it into a flight instead of driving situation, bumping up the cost further.

Because not many groups come to Australia, apart from BTS and they've only been here once. K pop for some reason has never been huge in this country.

money+security

concerts where im from tend to be expensive and have a intense crowd, even beyond kpop going to any concert means weighting if I like that artist that much to fight over a sea of people

There's also smaller artists and concerts where I'm okay standing far far away so those are just about money

A massive one is standing room only. Dreamcatcher toured my state but was standing room only so I couldn't go both bad for disabled folks and lowkey dangerous

My bias group would never visit my country for a concert, I never left my country even for vacation as my husband is scared of flying, so there is that. Without him I wouldn't enjoy it.

Besides, real life and finances also may be a problem. My ultimate bias member was shooting something in my country for the first time and I was just 200m away from him, but I had to go to work on time so I didn't even go to peek.

So beyond live is where it's at for me.

I dont really have reason LOL I go to every GG concert that comes here.

Tho I missed the recent Alexa concert because I forgot to get tickets....

I hate crowds

I will only tolerate them for my one and onlys

Same. I don’t like big crowds. So if I’m going I’m making sure it’s my faves and with people I share similar taste with

I love going to concerts, kpop or otherwise. If my faves come near me, I try to go unless the tickets sold out too fast (EXO the first time) or have a conflict (my bf's sister's wedding the second time. [spoiler: I should have gone to EXO.]) Kpop groups almost always come here so if it's my faves, I'm definitely going.
