DAY6 is facing backlash over their upcoming concert ticket prices.
JYP Entertainment dropped the seat prices for the band’s big return stage. Fans are split.
Here’s the breakdown:
- SR seats: ₩165,000 KRW (about $119 USD)
- R seats: ₩143,000 KRW (about $103 USD)
- S seats: ₩132,000 KRW (about $95 USD)
Some fans defend the prices, arguing the live-band format and long wait justify the cost. Others say it feels steep compared to typical idol group concerts.
On online forums, reactions vary wildly:
“Isn’t that price expensive considering there’s no sound check?”
“Isn’t it actually really cheap? I saw a concert recently that was over ₩200,000 KRW (about $144 USD) and was shocked. Anyway, hope there’s a seat for me.”
“The price seems reasonable.”
“After seeing BLACKPINK’s ticket prices, this feels so kind of them.”
“It’s not exactly cheap, but other concerts have been insanely overpriced lately, so this feels cheap by comparison.”
The debate keeps gaining traction as fans compare DAY6’s ticket costs to those of other top idol tours. Some speculate venue size, production value, and demand pushed prices higher since DAY6 hasn’t held a full group concert in a while.
No official comment yet from JYP or DAY6 on the controversy. The ticket saga is heating up fast.
