Recently, ILLIT’s ticket sales for their PRESS START ENCORE concert scheduled at the Inpire Arena in Incheon have been a hot topic.
Various posts regarding the many unsold seats in almost all sections at the venue went viral online, with many wondering if they would be able to fill the seats before the concert date.
Did ILLIT Overestimate Its Demand In Korea?
Now, with just a week left before the show, another online community post has garnered much attention as it shared photos of all the empty seats left.
The limit was changed from one ticket per person to two tickets per person, and even the canceled tickets have also been released.
However, netizens had divided reactions regarding the ticket sales.

- “It’s because the venue is really wide, but it seems to be ok.”
- “It’s because they aren’t gaining any new fans besides Wonhee fans.”
- “Haven’t they sold a lot, though?”
- “It’s totally empty, and yet they’re going through with it? Seriously?”
- “It’s pretty full, though?”
- “Although they may have the public’s attention, their fandom base seems really weak.”
- “I’m sure they will be fine…why is everyone hating on them?”
- “I don’t know how many times I’ve seen them talk about ILLIT’s ticket sales here…they’re probably going to talk about even a day before the show.”
