K-pop girl group tripleS has reduced the cost of tickets for its upcoming concert tour, ANDLESS, as the expenses for live performances continue to soar due to inflation. This move by the group has garnered attention within the K-pop community, where concert tickets often exceed 200,000 won ($149). TripleS kicked off the ANDLESS tour at Jangchung Arena in Seoul on October 10 and 11, with the S-section tickets priced at 30,000 won.
The decision to lower ticket prices comes as production values and staging for concerts have become increasingly elaborate, leading to regular admission seats frequently costing over 100,000 won and VIP seats at major K-pop agency shows often surpassing 200,000 won. Despite this trend, tripleS chose to lower the entry barrier for fans, making live performances more accessible to a wider audience. Modhaus, the group's agency, attributed this decision to a focus on audience accessibility.
