2NE1 held a successful concert in 2024. They performed to a sold-out crowd in South Korea on October 5 and 6, 2025. Everyone was excited to see the girls reunite for the first time in around a decade. The girls’ reunion was so successful that they were invited to perform at Gayo Daejun.
Thanks to their success, the girls are rounding out their tour with an encore concert on April 12 nd 13, 2025. It will be held in the KSPO Dome.
The problem came when fans realized that they had raised prices. The kick off for the same tour in Korea had cost ₩165,000 KRW (about $ 113 USD) for any seat in the house in 2024. In 2025, the girls have tiered pricing.
VIP tickets will go for ₩209,000 KRW (about $ 143 USD), while R seats will go for ₩187,000 KRW (about $ 128 USD). Comparatively, the furthest seats in the house are priced at what the previous concert’s tickets cost.
Netizens were highly disgruntled by the outrageous prices.
- How does it make sense that the cheapest tickets are ₩165,000 KRW (about $ 113 USD)?
- Ah, raise the prices reasonably… Are they insane?
- I thought that they were so nice for only charging processing fees for presales, but it turns out that the price for the fanclub presales were just included in the ticket pricing already. They’re just pretending to be generous but charging in other places.
- Can they even fill the hall? It hasn’t been that long since their last show.
- Even if I really wanted to 100% go, seeing the prices makes it drop to -100%… It’s so expensive.
- The prices…
2NE1’s lowest tier tickets are often the cost of highest priced tickets for other idols. The increasing prices of concert tickets have become a major issue in South Korea in recent years as K-Pop’s popularity grows.
