@Kiladaaa@DeniseShieka@jkologist If it is not true or not that big of a difference then why is there a Weverse US shop and Europe is put with global? And why is there a Hybe America and not one in Europe. Please understand I am not implying the US is better, i feel Hybe made these decisions based on market data
@Kiladaaa@DeniseShieka@jkologist I will add I do hope Europe gets more dates in the future as well as other countries they can go for the first time or more dates to countries they have already been. I love how BTS is seeing ARMY all around the world and I want that for them ๐
@Kiladaaa@DeniseShieka@jkologist Europe is the second biggest market at 25-30%. But it is multi countries compared to single country US and that is where infrastructure and operational ease get complicated (fragmented- different countries - permits, safety, languages, customs paperwork etc) and more costly.
@Kiladaaa@DeniseShieka@jkologist Early ARIRANG US data already set records (e.g., high averages like ~$12M+ per show in some stops, overall strong grosses, and claims of highest-grossing vocal group US tour figures from initial legs).
@Kiladaaa@DeniseShieka@jkologist Revenue Potential
โข USA: The single largest recorded music market in the world (roughly 30โ40% of global revenues depending on the year/metric). High average ticket prices, strong merch spending, and large stadium capacities drive outsized per-show and per-fan revenue.
@hemabangtanarmy I think your guess is correct. I noticed a few of the Vegas items were manufactured in USA with a date such as April 2027. Here is an example of one I saved
@_disappeared@wafflesnsprite Want to note the caretaker was getting paid from her company $9.00 an hour per her comment she would make $9.00 for a full days work in Philippines. But Philippines cost of living is sooooo much lower than USA hence her Philippines $9.00 equivalent was livable.
@_disappeared@wafflesnsprite So based on your logic of salaries in concert countries I guess Hybe/Bighits should give the Philippines concert goers free merchandise and maybe free money too. Is this correct since you say they need to bases prices on Europe salaries?
@RiceCrysti JK isnโt the one in the front with the jacket on. If you watch again he is in the back wearing baseball cap with his sweatshirt pushed up showing forearm of tattoo sleeve.The man in white shirt passes in view in front of him. I missed it on first watch, but then noticed tattoo ๐
@chrrypm Taylor Swiftโs Eras Tour reportedly used around 90 trucks semi trucks. Beyoncรฉโs Renaissance Tour used about 89 trucks for setup in some reports. There flight costs Crew and band (often 100+ people total, including musicians, dancers, technicians, management)
@chrrypm They have to use cargo ships to transport stage and equipment across oceans. The destinations need to have in most cases large stadiums. They need to have available workers such as โroadieโ staff to do setup, work event and tear down. So there are lots of logistics, cost
@cyjswishlist For Korean citizens and level for United States as of this month is still at the lowest level of lowest risk of level 1.
I am sure the concert promoters, their security and BH will do everything to ensure they are safe.
@cyjswishlist Constantly get threats from North Korea. Just recently North Korea is accusing South Korea of a Drone entering their country with more threats and often North Korea firing missile testing. Right now South Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) issues travel warnings
