JYP Entertainment Boy Group Ticket Prices Spark Debate

DAY6 is finally hitting the stage again — but fans are divided over the ticket prices for their upcoming concert.

JYP Entertainment recently released the seat pricing for the band’s highly anticipated show, and while excitement is high, so is the cost.

• SR seats: ₩165,000 KRW (about $119 USD)

• R seats: ₩143,000 KRW (about $103 USD)

• S seats: ₩132,000 KRW (about $95.00 USD)

While some fans say the prices are justified due to DAY6’s live-band format and long-awaited return, others argue that the pricing feels steep compared to other idol group concerts.

• Isn’t that price expensive considering there’s no sound check?
• Isn’t it actually really cheap? I saw a concert recently that was over ₩200,000 KRW (about $144 USD) and was shocked. Anyway, hope there’s a seat for me.
• The price seems reasonable.
• After seeing BLACKPINK’s ticket prices, this feels so kind of them.
• It’s not exactly cheap, but other concerts have been insanely overpriced lately, so this feels cheap by comparison.

The debate has gained traction on online forums, with some pointing out that even top-tier idol group tours have slightly lower price points — especially for S and R sections. Others speculated that venue size, production quality, and demand may have influenced the higher cost, especially since DAY6 hasn’t held a full group concert in quite some time.
