both AAA and SMA failed to fill up the stadium in SEA

4th gen kpop groups is not equal to 3rd gen kpop groups in term of stadium power. For 3rd gen, just one BG (BTS) or one GG (BP) can fill out that huge stadium..even in 2024

Easy money not so easy

I have seen the fans from SEA countries saying the tickets for these award shows are very expensive. And all the big groups attending already tour on SEA, so It's not really worth paying if fans can save to see their solo concerts.

No different from what we saw when they booked that MetLife show.

Kpop networks and companies getting a harsh reality check on the massive differences between 3rd gen acts that have nearly a decade or more of established relevance to new groups that have yet to leave the trend phase of their careers.

You don't sell out stadiums with a lineup of performers who have yet to even hit the theatre scene for the most part.

Expensive tickets, weak line up and the show itself, the stage design and sets were VERY cheap looking

Like the paint still looked wet!

overestimation of the line up capability

they should learn where's the people on their lineup is marketed. last year iirc GDA is filled with teume.

I looked up the prices for AAA the cheapest tickets were P3,000 which is like $54 USD and the average monthly salary is around P18,000 or $324 USD. So, the cheap tickets are comparable to around 17% of the average monthly income for locals.

This is the pricing:

LBA VIP: P25,000

LBA Premium: P20,500

LBB VIP: P17,500

LBB Premium: P15,500

LBB Regular: P13,500

UBA Premium: P11,500

UBB Premium: P7,500

UBB Regular: P6,500

UBC Premium: P4,500

UBC Regular: P3,500

UBC Generic: P3,000

Also, the data I used was net average, gross average is different, and its from like a year or so ago. I shall try to find 2023 data.

Update:

P20,300 for gross in 2023, and P19,344 for net in 2023.

So are the prices overall good or not? I don't understand anything about this currency

What currency do you use. If you are comfortable sharing, I can try to convert it to that currency. Though it will still be a little off because cost of living is different in different countries.

Real (BRL). But you don't need to convert for me, don't worry. I just want to know If these are good or expensive princes from people who live in Philippines' pov.

As I said in my comment, I'm just sharing what I read from people who live in these countries, don't know If I'm right or wrong. So I'd like to know your opinion.

In the case of Seoul Music Awards

Average minimum salary in Thailand: roughly 10,500 THB

Ticket price: 1,800 - 6,800 THB

In the case of upcoming Blue Dragon Music Awards

Ticket price: 1,200 - 6,900 THB

Blue Dragon has aespa on top of NCT Dream and RIIZE so, it may sell mildly better.

looks like net losses for organizers

expensive ticket + lack of demand because of line up

This is it. All of our faves do come here already for their own concerts and that is worth the price.

These awards show tickets were really expensive for any decent seats and lol at them for picking Radja stadium, which is huge, and I hate going there.

Also to share, in Thailand, the average monthly salary is actually about 30,000 THB for general company employee but it will vary depending where you are and which sector you work in.

They keep doing these shows on weekdays which is a bizarre choice.

aren't they doing market research before booking the venue??
