BLACKPINK is the first girl group to headline a stadium in South Korea

Quote from icyruios

I think they are still not as legendary as SNSD or NJs

I dont' think they're even as legendary as Day6.

Quote from icyruios

No one is as legendary as Day6

But I'll give props to nugupink

I thought Blackpink already did stadium concerts in Korea? This is their first time?

Oh floppink, stay flopping.

I think it might be, since I've heard it's the first time a Kpop girlgroup has toured at a Korean stadium

Quote from girlgroupstan21

with only solo member comeback, hiatus for 3 years .. yet look at their first day of tour today on Goyang

People from certain other fandoms, or some wacky minions, are probably currently zooming, enhancing those photos and using a magnifying glass trying to find an empty seat...

Wow first in HISTORY? This just confirms that girl groups are flops in Korea.

ain't no way they did it first before the supposed to be the "NGG".

You can easily see them with your bare eyes, mate. And judging by fandom reactions, it'll only get easier from here.

Funny, I was going to outright mention poopoo of k in my post as being one of the negative deadbeats that would pull this stunt, and sure enough, the deadshit, constantly negative dropkick that NEVER has a positive post to say about anything on this board took the bait without me even saying their name

I love that you're too high on your own supply right now to even recognize the irony at play here. If you were such a positive fellow, as you seem to fancy yourself, then you wouldn't feel the need to "bait" others. I'm just feeding on your own negativity.

Who says "deadshit?"

i believe majority of GGs only toured at KSPO Dome with capacity around 15k max

For comparison, twice did 14k 2 days for last tour, BP did 19k for 2 days. I think this is really first time a GG can pull 41k audience for stadium

You can put 30K people in a Blackpink concert, but you can't make everyone happy.

I don't get why people are still surprised after all these years. YG literally stealing money from fans for almost a decade. People hyping up the nice fireworks and visuals, but the concert was a mess, and based on some clips, I never felt the girls were prepared enough or cared tbh. Sure, most fans will be delulu and be happy that their faves are back and touring, but it's obvious this tour was rushed.

This is just INSANE, paying 100$ for this or more. It's a nice headline for YG that BP is the 1st girl group doing a stadium tour, tho, and that's all that matters anyway.

You bought a restricted view seat and then complain you cant see? 🤣🤣🤣

Almost all artists that have super high tour demand does this. Taylor did for ERAS, Gaga did for her Mayhem shows, weekend did that too, Bruno too.

Also, the show had much more than just firework. It has a drone show which showed logo of all their releases + hint at new era

But probably you wouldnt care

I don't think I've seen a massive screen there when other artists performed in a stadium, so it's just YG.

You're right, I don't care about the visuals like: fireworks, drone show etc, because even tho it looks nice, FOR ME that doesn't add anything to the actual performance! If I go to a concert, I wanna see the artists PERFORM, not some "magic tricks", basically.

Look at IU's Encore in the biggest Korean stadium! Do you see any massive screen blocking the view? No!

And this is more than 50K people on 1 day! So, yeah, YG being dumb as hell as usual. That's why some people (not sure if all of them are Korean) complaning.

don't be wasting time talking to them mamamoo fans, they dont get no restricted views and fireworks at olympic hall

Quote from David33

Taylor sold tickets for fans to see the back of the stage.

YG installing a giant LED for restricted view is genuinely "considerate". No one forced them to buy the tickets. Some of them want to be there to experience the concert live.

Friggin Dreamcatchers Australian shows in the cities Town Halls sold restricted View tickets!

You know, MAMAMOO doesn't need fireworks kiddo, because their vocals and overall performance can outshine ANY girl group and their visuals effects. 😂

Funny how you ALWAYS mention MAMAMOO, when I didn't even criticize Blackpink. Are you this insecure about your own faves? 😂

Also, if you don't know anything about MAMAMOO, stop talking. MAMAMOO performed in the biggest Korean stadium way before Blackpink did it, even if it wasn't their own concert!

This is 50K people, btw, and performing in a heavy rain too.

Again, just because some American artists does this too, doesn't make it okay!

If other Kpop groups or IU can hold a MUCH BIGGER concert than Blackpink without blocking the view, it's all on the agencies, not the fans!

Also, the agency has to notice fans about the setup as well, because that's how it works. That's why Koreans complaining, because no one told them anything.

Quote from gerrard174

No one does this. Plopping down a large screen in front of otherwise perfectly viable seats is pure idiocy. If you want a screen for the back of the stadium to view, you build a structure specially to hang it from. You don't just place it directly in front of your paying audience. This is amateur hour.

Yes because Yang was too cost conscious

I had said BP should have stolen a stadium concert from the Senior Singer

Thread

Would Twice and BlackPink have done Stadium Concerts if someone else had not done it? - The tendency of KPop Companies to follow someone, not lead

Prior to Sep 2022, no KPop female act did a stadium concert. Twice did a concert in the half-size Banc of California 'stadium', now known as BMO, with a capacity of about 23,000.

KPop companies tend to not have initiative - they always tend to be 'conservative', slower to react on newer trends, and not do something new until someone else had done it before. (Dome Tours in Japan are different animals and won't be discussed here.)

Both JYP and his executives, and Yang and his minions (YGE decisions…

Goyang is a half stadium

The cold fact is such that the singer who posted a photo with anchovy did a concert at a stadium before BlackPink so all Koreans will eternally think the former owner of Edam Entertainment is greater than BP.

crazy flex. soooooo it's must be easy for them to perform their own concert at the stadium right? so when?

i'll wait

you know damn well they ain't touching stadium without them joint concert

How old are you? Serious question, because if you're under 10, I can understand why are you so clueless.

You really want to compare RBW with YGE? RBW didn't even promote their first US tour, didn't even post a single Tweet in ENGLISH once, and you think they can book a stadium for MAMAMOO?

They could easily fill 40K stadiums, not in the US, but in Asia, 100%. You know why? Because only in Taiwan they're performing 20 times per year! The Taiwanese president asked Solar if she wants to buy a house there, because they love them so much. They're the most requested Kpop girl group in Asia when it comes to festivals!

Do you think Blackpink could do a stadium concert without YG money? No, they couldn't and they wouldn't be half as popular, either. So, your dumb comparison is ridiculous.

BTS was the main event of this concert btw, but the Korean president or who said some controversial stuff or something, and BTS said: "Hell no." so Korea asked MAMAMOO to save the day.

This was the whole lineup btw:

NewJeans, NCT DREAM, ITZY, MAMAMOO, The Boyz, MONSTA X' Shownu X Hyungwon, fromis_9, ZEROBASEONE, Kang Daniel, Kwon Eun Bi, Jo Yu Ri, P1Harmony, KARD, THE NEW SIX (TNX), ATBO, xikers, Libelante, and dance crew HolyBang.

Finally a GG perform in a stadium in their home country

And it makes sense it's the biggest kpop GG ever to do it

This concert was in 2023 my dear summer child. It was a bigger concert, what BP did in SK right now. Like I said, this wasn't the first time when MAMAMOO performed in a big stadium. Just watch their MAMA performances. They can easily do that, the only thing is missing is a big money company.

Next time you want to argue with me, learn English first, because it's clear and obvious you can't understand it. Never said, they did stadium tours, I said, they could if they're under a company like YG.

That's the ONLY reason Blackpink and every other BIG4 groups can do stadium tours, because they're under big companies.

The fact that you want to compare a small agency group with the BIG4 makes you stupid!

Also, if you know anything about musicians (you obviously don't, because you only know BP), they always say, they like smaller venues more, because it's much better than a massive stadium.

Only toxic Kpop stans like you crying about stadium tours, and acting as if it's their own achievements.

ain't you the one who been flexing joint concert stadium acting like your own achievement up there? talking about 40k easily for mamamoo when they had to spread 11k tickets for 3 days.

and i dont know why you been calling people toxic, when you were talking crazy up there?

feel free to tag me when mamamoo doing their own "easily 40k stadium" concert . wether it's in USA , Korea, Taiwan, Asia, Antartica or Underwater.

i mean since it's easy, it bound to happen someday. i'll wait.

You clearly dont understand.

There are fans dying to experience the tour. It happened to Born Pink tour too where due to excessive demand they had to add restricted view seats + install a LED for these seats.

You will only understand if you're part of those that couldnt get tickets. That section was the loudest in singing and chanting that night (mainly youngsters who couldnt afford more expensive tickets or couldnt get tic)
