Also just going through the form that's available right now actually really helped me understand how things worked. Finix I recommend having a look even if you're not applying yet.
Again it's luck overall
I did the same thing with jp, 1 seat per section for both days and for Gen sale 1 seat for all sections for both days
Now wait

You make it sound like you applied for global membership already. I assume you meant Japanese membership. (Along with the new general pre-order today.)
Yeah for jp
You've applied to everything that's available right now.
I'm waiting for global membership and then if I fail that will apply for general pre-order.
yeah but im not applying to 4 seats per raffle because that other person said it reduces the chance

Don't know why it auto to the word global when I put jp 
Lol everything is chances
You get less chance if you just put 1 seat on 1 application
I think you were confused like me. Let me try to explain.
There's no such thing as go in and apply for 1 seat per application per day, and you win. I mean you can win but why would you just go for 1 seat for one section when you can actually put up 4 sections and put 1 seat in that application per day?
The confusion comes from thinking that selecting seats is the same as asking to pay for all the seats you want. When it's just that if you ask for one ticket but then select the preference for all four seats, you will only have to pay for one seat or zero seats if you lose.
If they don't give you ss, you got s or balcony or even premium.
Seriously Finix go through the form that's available now you'll understand so much easier (if you haven't already).
Just fill it in with random info and don't put in card details obviously.
Also it's in order of preference, so if you prefer SS to Premium, you can specify that.
Yup
yeah no it makes sense if its just applying for preference
then i get it why i should use all 4 preferences
Yeah that's literally what I didn't understand until I went through the form as a test.
It's all good now!
You can start at s then go down to premium or start on premium going down to s
Either way any seat you pick, it's either win or lose.
You can lose the top 3 and get the last one or even have like 2nd pick win and lose the other 3.
What matters in the end is you get a seat lmao
lol you did it again

I have to remove my dictionary and auto fill and clear this up lmao
Pressing space bar just completes any word lmao
This general pre-order that's up right now is obviously a pre-order. Does that imply that there will be a general sale after pre-order, too?
Well that I do not know
probably will if they arent sold out after pre-sale
ok to confirm
I think it's only three right now. I don't know where PIA went... but I think we were confused about what PIA meant and THIS IS PIA.
Yeah
I believe so.
If you want to see them in both days
You apply for both days lol
They will give you 2 different confirmation numbers per application
Yeah Kira on the HIP website right now there's only these three options:
- Bunnies Membership (JP) Pre-order
- Bunnies Membership (GL) Pre-order
- Pre-order(1st stage)

Notice it says "1st stage".
Oh so there's a 2nd stage
And when I checked, remember we saw a PIA option in the past, well that was also on the 13th, which is why I assume that this "Pre-order(1st stage)" option IS THAT option.
Lmao I would be concerned if their system just went and told everyone you lose and still didn't fill any seats haha.
Well the pia option is actually a jp only option coz I never was able to use pia on previous jp raffles when I applied. So I don't what changed.
Pia option was also in superpop jp, but it was only for jp citizens.
And as you said we don't see it right now
This is the thing we will be applying for on the 17th with our global memberships.
They call it that...
I think we're both confused, Kira. 
Weird
I think HIP is the event organiser and PIA is the ticketing company???
Oh well, we will see
What did you think PIA was?
we will see
Organizer
I think everything involving tickets, either for JP membership, GL membership OR general pre-order ALL go through PIA website to order tickets.
I think...
Well again I didn't do that for superpop coz I didn't have the option to buy through pia membership when I went last year...so I'm not really familiar
Maybe because yokohama has another meaning for pia
There is no mention of PIA membership applications now. I can't remember if there was in the past.
Again I just think HIP = concert company and PIA = ticket company.
I guess

But of course, I still didn't win anything last year haha
I'm not blaming you Kira so don't get this wrong because you're trying to help everyone here but you confused the hell out of me with that PIA stuff from earlier. 
My bad
Bloody hope so.
Manifesting this
With all the stuff happened to me this past week, give me good luck with this pls 
Yeah you've had a busy week lol you spent all your bad luck to increase chances with good luck for this... 
(I don't think it works like that lol.)
There seems to be another separate PIA sale for PIA members
https://x.com/news_pia/status/1778981437867163895?s=46&t=RIKun564JVZlvJIkSJ1fDw
Oh ok.
Well I assume that went live same time as the "Pre-order(1st stage)" option.
*sigh*
I've never overthought so much in my life and I overthink a LOT!
yeah it went live same time as pre-order (1st stage), but it is going to end 1 day earlier
Any way for us to sign up for that too?
it says you need to be PIA NICOS card members and premium members who already have a PIA card (NICOS/JCB)
I knew it lol, it’s the same damn PIA from Yokohama 
Also good morning/evening 
Gotta get ready for work 
morniiing 
The entire costs (mostly flights) is putting me off lol.
Almost 14h flight = £1500. 24 flight = £750. 
Haven't been looking since I don't have ticket yet but was bored.
24h flight what
It would be worth it
time is money
oh with layover?
14h no layover. 24h cheapest with layover yeah.
wheres the layover
Depends on the flight. There are a lot.
Why did you ask where the layover was?
i was just wondering
I got a cheap united round trip for 1500 economy, but then I will have to go back to Japan after going to Korea waterbomb fes lol.
Was gonna do premium with delta but the hours was not in my favor lol.
4/8-11 - (A) with bunnies club global membership, you applied to the MAILING LIST to receive the lottery link. you haven't actually applied to the actual lottery to win a ticket yet.
4/13-29 - (B) you can already start applying to the 1st round of general sale raffle (details: https://www2.hipjpn.co.jp/live/newjeans2024/en.html)
4/17-21 - (A) if you applied to the first MAILING LIST, you'll receive the link to lottery on 4/17. you can start applying then.
4/26-29 - (A) winner announcement on 4/26. if you're from global i think they'll automatically charge your credit card. if from jp you have until 4/29 to pay to secure your ticket.
NOTE: there's a 3 day gap between (A) winner announcement and (B) application deadline. you could wait know if you win in (A) before joining in (B).
5/4 - (B) winner announcement
After Bunnies Club JP presale, there's a whole other stuff on the JP side that i ignore since it's more complicated
i wrote this comment in reddit might as well post here
nope
its gonna be sent at 4am your time 
Yeah that's fine. I just didn't know if we should expect the email at least a little bit before that time.
1 day left.
One last question I hope: for phone number does it matter if it doesn't have the country code? How would they contact you if you don't put the country code. 
Says input 3 + 4 + 4 numbers.
Also says take off last number if your phone number is 12 digits, so I also don't know how they contact people who remove the last digit. 
idk but in my jp entry i removed the last-most digit
in my general sales entry i removed the very first digit, so half of the country code
idk lol
Yeah idk either. Glad I looked just now I would have stalled on that tomorrow lol.
I usually just put my +1 on the first slot with my area code (3 digits), then 2nd slot is 3 digits, then 3rd slot is my last 4 digits on all my applications that I did.
in jp concert stuff, do they do anything with the phone number?
Only for concerts which use Lawson ticket app. Newjeans concert is physical ticket so no
ok ty
~~Did you put the + symbol? Obviously US with +1 is one fewer character than +44 for the UK, and I think other countries have 3 numbers for their country code.
~~
I'll just put what I think but this is the only thing I still have questions about.
Also even though it says "If your phone number is 12 digits, enter 11 digits with 1 digit reduced. (Please enter [3 digits]-[4 digits]-[4 digits].)" it still lets you enter 12 digits.
Nevermind, it does let you enter 12 digits but doesn't let you submit it. Same for the + symbol.
obviously I don't put the + sign just 1 then my 10digit phone number for US
just like winter said, you only use that for apps...physical tickets nah
I never was asked for phone numbers for JP concerts, but in Korea yes for phone numbers when attending korean concerts
gl application laters
isnt NZ time almost like the same in sea time?
i wish i was in nz timezone 
bruh I don't know why I am thinking you from NZ LMAO
Are we expecting an email in about an hour?
I bloody hope so.
bloody hell
I'm literally going to cry
cry of joy when you see your winning raffle
Still not sure what my phone number should be tbh. 
I'll be crying when I spend what I would need to spend for flights.
Either:
- 0xx xxxx xxxx (no country code)
- 44x xxxx xxxx (remove 0 for 44 country code but missing one digit at end)

prob the one with your country code
Yeah I'll go with that too since it's closest to what's on my membership, but still the fact they tell you to remove a digit at the end if it's too long is so strange to me. Never seen that before.

just a shit show all around 😭
I don't have a number associated with my membership 
If I don’t get this email imma cry
same 
did you sign up to general sale sei?
Someone hold my virtual hands 😭🫣
no email yet
Me neither.

Got it.

got it
I GOT IT
Fuck
FROZEN
Where do I find my NB number LOL
tf is a half width number
Oh done.
Wasn't expecting it to take a whole 6 minutes but I was prepared.
Now to wait...
im actually so upset i didn't get the email
bro i cant even fill out the credit card number??
did u figure this out?
I had zero issues
ah now
thanks
ash, did u apply for both days?
I've never been religious until this moment
Same mel
Premium, SS, Balcony, S in that order
is the other day applied after entering credit card details?
i think the link is generic
Click on home at the bottom of the last page and start over again, selecting Thursday instead
???
ah now
my sister wants to come with, but i told her higher chances of winning if only 1 seat is selected....
sorry lol
*you need membeship number if you want to apply to the above: https://weverse.io/newjeansofficial/membership?shopCode=GL
i finished 
dont u have a ticket already
so after you entry for the first one
theres home?

If you don't see that, just click the link in your email again to start over.
imma try go for the vip only....
Premium? Good luck, I assume you'll have lower chance.
Same lol. I told my friends it’s every man for himself
yeah premium
worth a shot

Thanks, got my application in
done with both
Glad it was the same form as general pre-order and was prepared otherwise I would have stalled so hard trying to figure out some of that stuff.
bruh im having this issue
with my bunnies club id
yo if i login with my membership number it only shows the last application day tho
aha cuz im still on the raffle of that day so it only shows that day
It only shows the single day one you clicked on.

You got two email confirmations everyone who applied both days?

26th will be an eventful day lol
i hope i win a good ticket and not just S
but eh, at this point happy to be in the stadium
Yeah I've resigned to being ok with S, it'll still be worth

they said they may do the transaction the day before the announcement
weird my first app didn't go through
then apply again
you didnt get the email?
the results for day 1 and day 2 are different links
...
i think mine didnt either nvm
i only got an email for day 2
I can't read that.
Mines by diginfo
Too
Wait how many app did yg apply
?

thanks mel, thanks for holding my hand through this process
22k yen
but pc will be included isnt it
Why?
yeah that's one of the main factors for this concert

youre stronger than i am
coz unless you're really really close to the stage, they're gonna appear tiny and you're gonna end up watching screen anyway
isnt that the case with all options?
im going to get a binoculars haha
mel trying to get everyone not to apply for it
so mel can win a premium seat 
jp security said nono
yeah but farther options you can see the whole arena
plus seeing the lightstick effects of the whole venue add to the experience imo
it's like added choreo
bwahahaha idk maybe i just havent been to a kpop concert that close so i dont see the meaning
yeah they shoot you if you do
could always turn around lol
i just wish we could take pics when they perform.....
if youre lucky, if not they take your photocards away
oh that's def a worse outcome
i thought it was chest level
give me farthest seat in the venue
im not sure
if thats the case then RIP

i identify my head as my chest
hold it with your toes duh

FUCK i actually didnt get it
Didn't get the email? You can still try and see if the pinned link works.
so if I apply can I give my potentially won tickets to someone else
Like @brisk pagoda
or is that a big no no
Unless you wanna give Kira your passport and you guys look alike
I think if you win and only only applied one ticket, that's a lot harder to give away than if you win and get two tickets, then you can at least get someone to physically go with you.
Everyone that applied got the mail
Will probably lool different with the results but im praying for the best 
gl everyone
My friend and I both applied for 2 tickets, if we both win can I give the extra 2? I’ll be there physically
Should be ok right?
I'd guess someone can join your group yes
wait
how do yg apply for two
??
oh ok
Chairs look comfy
I’m searching for one as well
thinking about these bad boys right 'ere
or the 8x32 version
I have to, I’m S seat
Get these antique opera ones
what's the diff between watching thru binoculars and watching on screen
Binoculars can focus on your bias haha
And the screen looks far for some seats based on this pic
ure not limited by who the camera man decides to focus on
who won
i'd win
I just woke up lol
I got the email
did everyone get 1 email or 2?
I have 1 but I applied for both days with it
2
1 email with the raffle link
2 emails for both days confirmation
yeah that's how mine is now, 1 link for the raffle where I can apply for both days. So I have 2 confirmation emails for day 1 and day 2.
time to wait for both raffles...I went for 2 seats for all 4 applications
also to everyone who applied and used credit card to pay for the application, make sure your credit card or debit card will auto pay with international transactions. If your bank sees an international transaction even though you didn't authorize it...You will lose the ticket that way too.
would be funny to see you win but you were not able to get the ticket because your bank denied the payment
LOL, any anitque recommendations
It should show up on my phone to confirm, hope it works
Kinda weird to just take the money tho, imo it should be each persons own responsibility to pay 
Hey, is there any K-ETA pro here that can help me out real quick? 
What is K ETa
that weird aah cash grab form of the korean government u apperantly gotta fill out
Wait i think i just answered my own question, i'll have to check the time of validity of it again
Yeah
K-ETA is 1 year I think
Yeah then i dont need an extra one when i leave korea for the 3 days of bunnies camp
Thanks 
Speaking off k-eta, I gotta check both that and the one for Japan lmao
Oh wait my k-eta is July so I’m also good lmao

I had to fill up a form before entering
I don’t remember though if it was the same as like k-eta
Idk maybe theyll give me something on the plane but i didnt read anything about it online, just that i can stay up to 90 days
I don’t usually stay over 90 days
The QR code is basically before departure and such coz you have to fill it up with like information on where you will be staying and such
Dang I forgot the name and link 
yeah theyll tell me when i arrive
but good to know i dont have to make a second keta application, can sleep peacefully now 
@gritty rivet https://services.digital.go.jp/en/visit-japan-web/
Here you go, I just checked my bookmarks lol
Wow so i can speed up the progress by preparing it in advance
Yup
Aight will do that, thank youuu so much 
Hehe no problem 
o i did this when i went to japan
theres a lot to do
i had to prepare like 3 qr codes
for me and four others
each
Should be good with this one and basically visa upon arrival
For those of you who need a visa, make sure you get that and its 100% confirmed before you make travel plans
or if you do make travel plans, book hotels that are free cancellation
i should probably book a hotel now
btw when i use my cards they usually ask for otp in checkout
i wonder if it'll cause issues
Does it automatically charge card when won?
if you picked the cc option yes
Cc option?
credit card. options were cc or pay at 7/11
yeah
Hmm might want to check with your bank
the wait is killing me
🧘

If you need help just ping me
Just to check, I can apply for both days, and 4 applications each. But in the end, if selected, I will only get 2 tickets right? Haha. Want to avoid over purchase.. 😅
yes 1 or 2 whichever you picked in the dropdown
Ok. Thanks!!
Just curious, what happens if you don't have enough money in the bank
your card would just get declined no ?
Idk bc I kinda had the same question as this
either that or it charges and you go in the negatives
I don't think that's possible?
Good luck tho
Ty
good luck
probably can't charge you so even if you win say bye to the tickets
I have enough for 1 application in my bank
If i lose weverse ig i have enough for general
well in the scenario you win both
it’ll probably charge you for what you can afford, so one application and decline the other
why is it bye instantly, i dont get why people cant just pay themselves too like the same day or a day or two after 😭
That is what im hoping
gah damn
I think most japanese concerts r like this tbh
With the raffle and such
even raffles here in the states
Annoying
charged automatically upon winning
I have to accept payments on my credit card so no idea if it works for the tickets
Rlly?
if they want the money the same second they register it i'll be cooked
U might want to disable 2fa on the card if possible
sometimes they will email you a checkout link but what happens is people give it away or sell it
so that’s why they charge instantly
dont see an option for that on my card
yeah you might probably want to call your bank
What company u use?
some swiss bank? or wdym 
Name of ur bank
ill just hope for the best, maybe it works. if it doesnt ill wait for tour when its not in japan and annoying.
Actually just when u buy something online does it redirect you to another site or just charge the card?
Mine just charges the card
redirect and i have to accept mostly
cuz its smart and safe
The global and presale will automatically charge your card if you win but you will also receive an email notification for the winning seats, the main issue is the card you specifically used if it’s going to allow an international purchase or transaction without it being flagged as frauds charges. You will need to notify your main bank if the card you use to purchase the raffle tickets does not flag intl purchases.
If you don’t have enough money in your CC/Debit card, one thing will happen in this instance. You will be notified about the purchase not being complete, then might not be able to pay for it even after you get notified. Other one is you do get notified to change your payment method. But in this instance you can’t afford to pay your winning applications, you do realize they will ban your account due to not paying it right?
Thats why there’s a time limit to the payment, they give you time to make sure you pay the seats you went for. After that, if you can’t pay good bye to future applications.
Yeah i will pay for them but i have to accept the payment
If they say blud didnt pay because i didnt press the button fast enough its just stupid 
lol you don’t have to press or push a button, it’s an automatic charge to the card you used. So again, just contact your bank to notify them that you used your card for international purchases and not be flagged for fraudulent charges

its an app of the bank and every online payment appears there
imma see how it goes
Yeah same
what time is the result again? I just know its on april 26th
i should have used my other card but its too late for that now, ill make it work with this one
didnt know it worked like that
My PayPal cc is just like any cc, any charges to it I get notified via email and text.
i used amex for this one
And what’s good is, I don’t have to think about international charges haha
Coz it auto converts my USD to any currency and won’t get flagged as fraudulent charges due to me using it physically in the countries
I was going to use mine but I will be using it for my car lol

good idea
The time it said
Where you get notified of your winnings and such on the website
They are meticulously right on time with this lol
Yeah i forgor when
They ain’t American time or Filipino time when it comes to important matters like this 
nah thats good
gotta love that the japanese are as punctual as the germans 
schedule
lol why you think people don’t like them 
They stick to their schedule 
@gritty rivet I’ll be in Tokyo area for June 25 to 30 (Shibuya/Shinjuku), then Korea for July 1st to 8th. Jeju island from the 1st to the 5th, then seoul from 5th to 8th(waterbomb festival). Then back to Tokyo July 8th to 11th.
lol watch me take 2 more weeks
Right now I have nothing planned after July 8th to the 11th lol.
Humidity and too much sun will kill me
I have summer school and college apps
I don’t do summer vacations
I’m only doing this because of newjeans and well kpop in general

But you’ll never see me take vacation on summer

Anyways, whoever wanna meet up for those day in Tokyo area. I’m down to walk and do food trips 
If it helps i used different emails
One was the email my weverse is on the other was my personal
Well the global one is using weverse due to the membership ID so that’s much more important to pay for so your global ID won’t get banned for future applications but remember they have your name in that too for passport purposes and for any other reasons you can get blocked or banned for.
They can just do the name search for personal and weverse account and tie them together and you’d still be banned for stuff like just not paying for such a simple task.
Think about it, they said you have to put your name like from the passport and or drivers license, they got your name in the system lol. Regardless of having 10 emails
If you win all 4, you will pay for all 4. Or basically see what the consequences are.
Welp we'll c
Which is the reason for some people who buys extra seats, and to sell coz they over pay or was not planning to pay for the extra seats.
Mby i'll send a email asking what happens if i dont have enough money
But im not planning on buying extra seats and some ppl can have the same name but we'll c
Well that’s why, buy what you can and not what you can’t. The reason why it’s a raffle in the 1st place is to make people not be greedy.
It’s to prevent people to benefit from selling or over buying
But I’m not your mother or father, so do what you want. I’m just here to explain stuff that I myself have experienced with Japanese concerts via raffle.
It’s all good, 1st timers are welcome to ask anytime.
You’d probably get 1 seat per day so you won’t be paying over
If you do get 2 seats to pay per day, then try to see if you can sell it on here.
But in reality, just don’t tell the ticket people that you sold the ticket lol.
hiiiii
Whoever buys it from you, just say we best friends or fam 
Ngl im going to japan with like 3 friends if i dont get a premium on weverse i might gamble for it on general
And might just give a ticket to one of them
There you go
I submitted 1 application per day of the concert, but all 4 applications have 2 seats preference.
Again it’s all luck, you can win one seat or all seats and it depends
You can win all 4 preferred seats but only the top 2 preferred I think will be charged because you have it as 1st to 4th.
But I never did ask anyone who has won all 4 and if they were able to get all 4
🥖
I’ll be seeing you Neet

i did wednesday only for 1 ticket on both global weverse and global preorder
might be down but gonna be my first time in japan
coincidentally gonna be in tokyo when newjeans is there soooo
I'll be down too Kira, as long as I win the raffle then I'm going. If I don't I'm not going. 
I never done something like this on and go to another country so far away on my own.
The wait will be over soon!
I’m not all knowing but I’ve been to Japan since morning musume and akb48 era with jpop, but time change and places changes so. So y’all can expect a lot of stuff in Japan lol
im going with 3 ap japanese friends who have been there last yr for a field trip
so i pray
the general plan is like 35 days split between japan and korea
What are raffle draw dates again?
Sum1 posted it here b4 but forgot to sc
Screenshot
It's pinned
Wait yeah how do you even see thread pins on mobile. lol I can’t figure it out.
Hey idiot that’s not what they meant
sorry lauv that was mean
they mean the pinned messages in a thread


Pinned messages on threads are on options
I just got
I mean settings
please don’t report me
Why do I say options for settings 
I’m nice I won’t
Why the hell would they put it in settings in threads but not in non-threads
I don’t know lol
I was looking for the pin too till I checked settings so I knew where it was

helpful thread about fanclub members who used apple email in weverse and not receiving emails from anywhere except from weverse
just translate it. disclaimer: i didnt read all of it 
Wow im in Japan from next week until June 10, Seoul and Busan from June 10 - June 26, Tokio again from June 26-28, then Busan again June 28-July 1, then Jeju and Seoul from July 1 - July 22

I dont think we cross paths except for Bunnies Camp tho, we always somewhere else 
Oh yeah im in jeju july 1st - July 8th
Well I guess we can hang out in a cafe and beach 
I’ll be with my best friend and his wife along in this trip in Jeju haha
But im in the south of jeju from 1st - 5th july and in jeju itself from 5th - 8th july 

Gonna be a wild trip

I’m debating which Airbnb I’m going for lol the one with the bike so I can just bike around the beach areas or the one near the airport with a nice top view from their veranda

i got a nice hotel with a big pool at the beach in jeju city
its gonna be my holidays in holidays

hey umm does any1 by any chance have any suggestions of where to go to within japan and korea
trying to add to itinerary
i loved asakusa sensoji when i first saw it. meiji jingu then harajuku was fun too
Here you go
Here's a 10 week itinerary
I'm working on another 8 week itinerary atm, but its not done yet.
If you're just looking for Tokyo, I can probably give you enough stuff to do for a month or two
Just depends on where you'll be and what you want to do.
What do I do for 3 days and how do I make that into 5 days without spending more 
10 weeks is crazy I'd love to do it but I'm not made of money
Since I'm going for such a limited time I really don't know what to pick and choose tbh
In just Tokyo?
Yeah I'm limited
In Tokyo, just do the touristy things
That's the thing there's a lot of touristy things I don't know if it will be too much to do what first comes to mind
Anyway I don't even know if I'm going yet
It's based on winning raffle ticket
Day 1 - Toyosu Fish market to get some sushi, Teamlabs Planets, Small Worlds Museum, Diver City Mall, other Odaiba stuff
Day 2- Asakusa with Senso-ji, probably check out Akihabara if you're into weeb stuff, check out an Ueno museum and Ueno Park
Day 3- Shibuya + Shinjuku shopping. Meiji-Shrine. Could probably do Teamlabs Borderless as well. Shibuya Sky too.
Could do a day trip down to Yokohama too if you'd like
Can also check out Tower Records Shibuya as well
Can I ask, for the raffles system for the tickets, is it only practice in Japan? Or is it similar in maybe Korea?
The lottery system is primarily a Japan thing
Korea does the presale system where fanclub members get access to presale
However there its just a free for all
Scalpers are pretty common
Japan has scalpers too, but they can't charge as much because seating is randomized
No one can guarantee you a front row seat because no one knows what seat they have until a few days before the show.
Some concerts, you won't know your seat until you literally enter the venue
Ohs! Korea ticketing system is online queue system or its like "flood-gate-open, fastest fingers' ? Is it user-friendly for global fans?
online queue system
Its user friendly ish for global fans
The problem is that
You're competing against 2 major groups
- Koreans, who have the fastest internet and will queue up first because global fans are not in Korea and therefore will have latency issues.
- Chinese scalpers who have bots and macros who pick up the best seats.
Scalpers in Korea too
Though they are trying to crack down pretty heavily on that, though its almost impossible to get rid of entirely
WIth IU's concert, they cracked down heavily on it
but they scaled back recently due to backlash with them banning/kicking out people who had purchased tickets fairly
Edam worked with melon to make it harder for scalpers to transfer tickets
and they made it impossible to switch tickets beforehand too
EDAM started to ID check people at their seats
So once you sat down, they would ID check you
and see if your ID matched the list of names they had for the seating area
Oh i didn’t know that IU bans other lightsticks in her concert? I mean not IU herself but the company
That manages the concert
They don't?
but no one would be stupid enough to bring another fandom's lightstick in Korea
You'd get so much hate from everyone around you
I have no idea on that
My friend went for both days
but I expect it as much
Lots of shows do that
SM did that for some of their groups on tour too
People didn’t have her official lightstick so they were told to like not use a standard lightstick in the concert
I get that
So they had to pay for a locker to leave the lightsticks lol
to be honest, I'd rather see people without lightsticks than see unofficial ones
True but I used my bunny lightstick with ive’s concert 
Good thing the ones were like we like newjeans too haha
lol
Coz I only had izone and newjeans lightstick haha
I have a few, but nothing recent
But this is in US, so if I do that in Asia I might get asked to leave the LS in a locker
If I use those LS to just use em for lights haha
There's more behind them
I wonder how they'd feel about me bringing a gen 1 lightstick 😄
lol
Ohs! Thanks for the info!! Haha! Because i might be travelling to Korea. So, I thought if could get korea's concert instead. But from what you shared, seems almost near impossible for global fans to get korea's tickets. haha!
Its not impossible, its just difficult.
but if you want a good chance, you need fanclub
Korea is kind of easier in that only real fans go to concerts/fan meetings
and in Korea, people don't multistan
Most people are one fandom and that's it
To be honest it isn't that difficult to get tickets for most kpop events in Korea
Its only the insanely popular acts like BTS, Seventeen, or IU where its extremely hard
woah, lightstick collection
ohs! Ok! Thanks for the sharing!
I think someone explaiined before. Able to clarify again? I applied for both days (2 tickets each). but i will only maximum be able to get 1 day right?
because each membership ID is eligible to only 2 tickets?
In Korea or in Japan?
Japan's
The upcoming concert
You mean the fanmeeting?
Yea!
gl
I won't lie, if I had to choose, I'd rather go to Japan to only see NewJeans and literally do nothing else in Japan rather than go to Japan for 3 days without NewJeans. I'd rather wait until I can go to Japan for a longer time in the future.
have you booked your flight ?
No. Before everything happening now I was hoping the moment I get my tickets paid for I would book the flight.
Lol I have everything booked, coz I did say I'll be in Japan regardless if I win or not 
a

Yeah I'll be in Japan myself from May 29 till July 15
I may be going to the fanmeeting for NJ, depends on if my friends got tickets.
I'm going to be there anyways for IU Osaka
Just told AMEX to expect a charge 
I think I'll be fine with any charges... but you make me doubt everything lol.
Like if I buy something of Weverse in KRW my bank just allows it, which leads me to believe I'll be fine.
u guys need to call your bank before buying stuff?
I literally never have and even when I was in a different country and forgot to tell the bank they just quickly text me and ask for a yes or no response.
i went to japan and spent some money but they didnt deny it
i didnt call either
just wanted to be sure, but my bank assured me it would be fine
usually when i checkout it asks for OTP
that's what i was nervous about
my uncle has black
International charge yeah
they blocked me and my family for buying Disneyland Tokyo tickets lol
gotcha
gold is solid
lounges 😏
What expensive product can I buy from Japan to test this out.
(I'm joking.)
can he leave the airport
oh yea right
Jewel Changi yeah.
especially the lounges
imma go just for the airport
Take showers anytime
the wait time was 5 hours
And some has like private rooms for people who has lounge access

the private rooms are really clean
good experience
yeah my dad always tells me how he naps and showers lol
i literally take a bag of free stuff whenever i leave
I always do the showers in airport when I get a long ass layovers
and make sure to be full too
I think landing in singapore the first thing I did in the lounge was throw up but I forgot why
I don’t have motion sickness/ plane sickness
Probably food that your stomach didn’t agree with
probably yeah
I remember thinking how nice the bathroom was while it happened though

whats your guys take
Lmao
i sleep after taking advantage of the amenities and services
i think it just depends how frequently you fly first class
like people who fly less are obv gonna wanna stay up longer to experience it more, etc
I’ve never done first class, only a handful of business
First class is basically higher than business class iirc
Or was it the other way around?
yep
You are correct.
yea its higher
And first class is like it depends on the airlines you use too
i watch those reviews
wow

Which airline?
a korean one
k airline
Ahh
it was cool but I didn’t get to enjoy 100% of it since it was a solo trip and I had to figure out where to go to run errands

I don’t know, to me flying first class is a waste of money. Even if I can afford it, but I do get why people do it. Coz you are really able to relax the whole time I guess
i have never flown solo
yea buisness is plenty
my cousins family only does this
but they’re in politics so probably makes sense
my family generally only flies first class to asia
obviously everything else its whatever
I mean I usually do the one before business, I only do business when my company tells me to do business haha
what are the tiers again
economy
after economy
premium economy
Not all airlines do that though
spirit 💀
First -> business -> preferred-> premium economy-> main economy-> basic economy
wow
I think that’s how it goes
the hell is preferred
Well some airlines got main which you can choose a seat while basic they choose a seat for you
bruh wut
i thought u just pay extra during basic
window mains wya
and its considered the same “level”
lol yall talking about all this and I'll be stuck with whatever is cheapest if I go to JP
you just pay for add ons
I mean those are some of the ones I see when I fly delta, united, and aa
Also I’m not like east or west coast so yeah lmao
i fly alaska most of the time
its useful if ure tall or thicc id guess
If I was stationed in LA I’ll be flying anything other than the 3 I mentioned
yes big fan
yea i like jetblue
I usually try to do ANA to go to Japan lol
i think some airlines caught up a bit
i dont think ive flown jetblue
yeah I flew ANA last year
although they canceled me and separated me from my family

Ana got the best flight food
The only thing I don’t like with flying Ana is the time slot
I want to leave super early not afternoons lol

So I am forced to use delta/aa/united for earlier flights
Coz they always leave am to Japan
It is lol
lax
he was talking about how he made the mistake of choosing a flight that stopped there instead of SFO
and there’s so much construction / maintenance there just for these 2028 Olympics
Simple areas
I like new la guardia
Oh lga in nyc
it used to be super bummy back in the day
They renovated it
hella nice now
