VICTON Was Given Only 1,000 Seats For Their Fanmeeting And Fans Are Furious
Rookie boy group VICTON from Play M Entertainment(formerly Plan A) is currently set to return to promotions with their fan meeting “Voice to Alice” on September 22.
VICTON members Seungwoo and Byungchan temporarily halted group activities by appearing on Produce X 101. While Byungchan made an early return to the group due to an injury, Seungwoo eventually ranked third, setting to debut with X1.
Interest in VICTON began growing due to the show, and their fan meeting would have marked their return as a 6-member group excluding Seungwoo.
However, fans are already showing anger at Play M Entertainment for the details of the event, particularly the venue’s capacity. Set in the K Art Hall, this function room only has a capacity to seat 1000 people.
Netizens agreed that their company seemed to be underestimating VICTON’s capability to sell more seats.
Meanwhile, they are selling the fanclub membership for Alice ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋwhat do you expect them to do about the fans who joined during Produce?

No but isn’t Plan A underestimating Victon way too much?
— Korean Netizen
They pointed out how fellow Produce X 101 contestant, Lee Jinhyuk, had great success with his fan meeting.
No but Lee Jinhyuk’s fan meeting had 4000 seats and got sold out in 1 second… Choi Byungchan has a lot of fans just like Lee Jinhyuk and this is not even his solo fan meeting but a group fan meeting. They could even sell out a fan meeting with 10000 seats ㅋㅋ What is Plan A doing? BB

VICTON seemed to be holding their own when it came to the number of fans they have currently amassed.
That’s what I’m saying. If you look at their V-lives, they have hundreds of thousands of people watching and their popularity is no joke ㅜㅜ 1000 seats? Is Plan A not planning to make money at all? ㅜㅜ
— Korean Netizen
ALICEs were wondering if they should still attend the event.
To be honest, this is just the round up number; should I go or not?
— Korean Netizen
Even their planning sucks. Comeback -> Alice’s 2nd recruitment -> fan meeting, shouldn’t this be the order? Ah, they seriously don’t want to make money;;;; I sent them an e-mail to protest and they won’t read it
— Korean Netizen
What do you think about this problem? Should Play M Entertainment find a bigger venue?
