BlackPink, a K-pop sensation, recently kicked off their world tour in Asia with concerts in Bangkok, Hong Kong, Riyadh, and Abu Dhabi before finally touching down in Malaysia. However, it seems that the concert in Malaysia has left a sour taste in the mouths of some BlackPink fans, also known as Blinks, due to the poor seating arrangement provided by the organizers.
The issue has become such a hot topic that it has sparked a heated debate among Malaysian fans. Some Blinks who had paid a hefty amount for their seats, ranging from RM500 to RM800, were outraged to find out that their views were blocked by fences. Some even went as far as to say that it felt like watching the concert from jail.

With such high prices, it’s no surprise that the fans were disappointed and felt cheated. Some even preferred to buy the cheapest seat for only RM188, which had a better view, even though it was far away.
The fans are particularly unhappy because they claim that the organizer did not inform or include the fence in the layout of the concert seating. Some have compared the pricing and seating done by other organizers in other countries, which had a better layout with cheaper ticket prices.

Many Blinks are still upset with the organizer’s lack of responsibility and poor planning. Other Blinks who attend the concert are also commenting and expressing their anger, with some warning other fans to avoid getting seating in that area in the future to avoid paying a higher price for a bad view.
