Koreaboo | Tickets for Big Bang's "Big Show" sold out in 5 minutes


On January 18, Gmarket made the first round of tickets available for Big Bang's "Big Show", but they only lasted for five minutes. Big Bang's immense popularity is easy to see as only 14,000 tickets were available, but 150,000 fans attempted to purchase first-round tickets on Gmarket.

Big Bang's first concert saw a ticket server failure as well as a postponed ticket sale date. The 10:1 ratio of the 2011 "Big Show" potential ticket buyers to those who were actually able to buy the tickets once again indicates Big Bang's power to sell out venues.

Those unable to buy tickets during the first round will not give up. Fans anticipate a second and third round of tickets to open up in the near future. YG Entertainment representatives promised, "We'll make sure to put on a great show and pay you back for all the waiting you did."
