World Tour’s Finale in Pusan. For a 2-Day Concert 20,000 People Gather.
Due to the concert of the idol group JYJ that will be held in Pusan’s Sajik Indoors Gymnasium on the 11th and 12th, Pusan is getting excited. Because it seems that about 3,000 foreign fans of JYJ such as the Japanese fans will visit Pusan for this concert, the hotels and the department stores are basking in as if it is the special season.
World Tour Finale to be Held in Pusan
JYJ chose as the final city of their tour after the five cities in Thailand, Taiwan, China, and the US to be Pusan. Therefore the interest of the fans are more heated than for any other performance. Even though a 4-days 3-nights concert travel package from a travel agency in Japan reaches 3,000,000 KRW (approximately 3,000 USD), about 1,000 people registered for it.
Prior to this, the tickets for the JYJ Pusan Concert that began to be sold on the 27th of last month from 8pm completely sold out—20,000 tickets within 15 minutes of ticketing’s start. That JYJ chose Pusan as the location for their final tour stop was also to be considerate for the fans of Japan and Southeast Asia.
The good deeds of the fans of Japan also catches the eye. The members of 7 fanclubs in Japan numbering about 2,000 have currently ordered about 1.5 tons of rice and plan to donate to JYJ. An affiliate of Rice of Je Dreamy, a rice garland business, said: “Even now the orders are continuing and we expect that about 2 tons will gather.” The names of the Japanese fans who participated in the donation will be written on a large cloth and will be placed in front of the concert venue along with the rice garland. JYJ plans to give the donated rice to a societal relief organization in the Pusan area.
