This month, K-pop fans will be thrilled to learn that their beloved groups are coming to perform.

On Jan 7 and 8, Blackpink performed at the National Stadium, with its capacity of 19,000, but Blinks (the name of the Blackpink fan club) complained that the stadium was too small.

The concert organiser, Live Nation Tero, eventually announced "Blackpink World Tour [Born Pink] Bangkok Encore" on May 27 and 28 at Rajamangala Stadium with a capacity of 50,000.

However, Blinks may be disappointed when they see the prices. Tickets range from 2,800 baht to 14,800 baht. The 14,800 baht ticket is called a VIP ticket and offers some perks, such as access to the soundcheck and the ability to buy tour merchandise before others. The presale tickets will be available March 4 to Blink members and will be available to the public on March 5 at thaiticketmajor.com.

Fans of K-pop sensations Aespa, BTOB, AKMU, KARD and Everglow do not have to worry about ticket prices like Blinks because they can see their favourites in person at a more reasonable cost.

"Sound Check Festival 2023", is on March 25 at Thunderdome Stadium, Muang Thong Thani. The ticket prices are 2,999 and 4,599 baht and will be available on March 4 at allticket.com.
