AESPA's Ticketing Policy Sparks Debate Among K-Pop Fans

CORTIS and ENHYPEN have previously used a domestic fan club pre-sale policy for ticketing, which garnered massive attention.

AESPA's recent tour has started using this ticketing policy, sparking controversy among fans.

The ticketing notice for aespa's tour announced the order of ticket sales would be domestic fan club pre-sale, global fan club pre-sale, and general sale.

Domestic fan club members would be able to buy tickets 5 days earlier than global fan club members.

While some argue that prioritizing domestic fans is only right, given that the concert was held in Korea, others point out that this system is not suitable for global fandoms.

The effectiveness of blocking overseas scalpers and resellers was also raised as an issue.

However, K-Netizens agreed that it was only right to prioritize domestic fans and that this policy should be applied to all idols.
