only bots are buying ive concert tickets

Quote from Lulu_Key

wtf is the point of going to concerts anymore???????

why are they all on their phones???

Unfortunately in this new era, recording and posting on social media is more important. In the concert i have been to,basically more phones than cheers.

Not that they dont cheer. They cheer when the idols are talking instead (when they are not recording)

I’m noticing that this is very common in K-pop concerts. I’ve recently been seeing a lot of videos from Enhypen fans complaining about this as well. People on their phones & not interacting with the artists. Locations I’ve seen so far that really turn up at K-pop concerts is the Philippines and Hong Kong.

The concert started at 6:10 I think it ended around 9?

They performed their "last song" at about 2 hours into the concert but with the planned encore (additional fan interactions + 2 more songs) it was almost 3 hours

sounds like you had a great time

obviously I've never been to a kpop concert before (they don't come to my nugu city) so how does IVE compare to some of the other groups you've seen?

Quote from icyruios

icyruios What you have to say in defense of your people?

Quote from icyruios

Might go for more soon, but I need to find people to go with so it's more fun

well if kpop groups keep going to singapore it must mean there's a market for it so I'm sure you'll find someone

Every time tickets go on sale, bots snap them all up in seconds. It’s super frustrating when you’re genuinely trying to grab a ticket, and they’re gone before you can even click. I’ve been burned a few times myself, so now I look for other ways to get tickets. Have you tried Seatpin Buy and Sell Tickets? It’s a platform where people buy and sell directly, so you can sometimes find decent prices without all the stress. I’ve had good luck there, and it feels a bit more personal than dealing with scalpers. It’s not perfect, but at least you’ve got a shot at avoiding those crazy bot-controlled markups.
