The group will embark on their Blood Saga world tour, beginning in Seoul in May, before traveling to South America, North America, Europe, and Asia, with more dates to be announced. This is the group’s fourth world tour, and it looks to be one of their most extensive based on the dates announced so far.

On April 22, the presale for the tour began, with general sales opening on April 24, and some locations added additional dates.

However, some concern has been shown over the amount of tickets remaining in some cities. Looking at the Tacoma Dome in Seattle, Washington specifically, fans have noted that many tickets outside of ones attached to VIP benefits are left. The San Diego date also shows many tickets remaining outside of the VIP area.

More than one post about the Washington date has gained attention online, as fans discuss possible reasoning for the sales.

One reason has been attributed to boycotts of ENHYPEN reportedly due to things like EVAN’s (formerly Heeseung) departure from the group, and protests against the group’s packed schedule. Another possible reason has also been attributed to the costly ticket prices.

The group’s concert dates in other locations have performed better, with several in Europe selling out.
