Spectators fill the stadium Foro Sol, Mexico
According to Korean media, the fact that BlackPink sold out 100% of all shows shows that the group's loyal fandom is growing extremely strongly globally. This shows that BlackPink fandom's idol spending is also among the top in the world.
Live Nation once conducted a study that showed that watching idols perform live for loyal fans is an enjoyable experience.
Fans will feel 5 times more excited than watching idols perform on television or digital platforms. This is why Kpop fans often spend money to buy tickets to watch live concerts.
