ILLIT has become a hot topic after a viral video of their low ticket sales ahead of two Korean concerts was shared online.
ILLIT are set to hold encore concert in Korea in October.
Ahead of the show, a tweet is going viral claiming that ILLIT is struggling to sell tickets. In the video, the OP clicks on the dates, and there are still a huge number of tickets despite the tickets being on sale for over a week.

In the comments, fans shared their reactions.

These ILLIT stans were always making a big deal about the view counts, but now that it’s been revealed that it was just viral marketing, they’ve gone quiet again lol.

일반석이 16만5천원..?

Floor seats are ₩220,000 KRW (about $160 USD) …?
Regular seats are ₩165,000 KRW (about $120 USD)…?It already costs a fortune in transportation just to get to Inspire, and now the ticket prices are insane too.
The fans don’t seem to be that old on average either…
With the location and prices being this damn ridiculous, how are these kids supposed to even go there..?
