How to Get Tickets for Lim Young-woong's Concert? All Seats Sold Out in Just 6 Days

Tickets for Lim Young-woong's year-end and new year concerts have sold out rapidly. Despite expectations that ticketing would be easier this time due to the six-day event spanning two weeks, many fans found themselves disappointed.

On November 20 at 8 PM, tickets for Lim Young-woong's concert titled ‘임영웅 리사이틀 (RE:CITAL)’ were made available through Interpark. As soon as the tickets were released, they sold out at an astonishing pace, marking yet another remarkable achievement similar to his previous performances. Notably, this concert series consists of three shows at the end of the year and three at the beginning of the new year, totaling six performances within two weeks, all of which quickly sold out.

The concerts are expected to attract around 100,000 attendees. In December 2022, Lim Young-woong held two concerts at Gocheok Sky Dome, each attended by approximately 18,000 fans, totaling over 36,000. If the current concerts follow a similar scale, he could connect with over 108,000 fans across the six shows.

Unfortunately, many fans who attempted to secure tickets found themselves in a position of disappointment, inadvertently becoming 'bad children' to their parents and grandparents who wished to attend.

This outcome is not surprising, as Lim Young-woong's previous concerts, held from October 27 to 29 and November 3 to 5 last year at the KSPO DOME in Songpa, Seoul, also sold out completely. In May 2023, he held his first stadium concert, ‘IM HERO-THE STADIUM’, at the Seoul World Cup Stadium, where he engaged with 100,000 fans.

Fans who participated in the recent ticketing expressed their frustrations online, with comments like, “I tried to get tickets for my parents, but it was harder than expected. It seems to be getting more difficult,” and “I failed to get tickets. How can I find them? I’ll keep trying.” Others shared their hopes, saying, “Surely one seat will open up? My mom really wants to go,” and “I waited in line with 150,000 others and still failed.” Many expressed doubts about finding a seat even after a month of attempts.

Meanwhile, during the upcoming Gocheok Sky Dome concert, Lim Young-woong plans to reinterpret classic songs with his unique voice, aiming to captivate audiences of all ages with a blend of emotion and humor. The concert promises an upgraded experience with impressive stage production, diverse styling, and an overall enjoyable performance.

The ‘임영웅 리사이틀 (RE:CITAL)’ will take place from December 27 to 29 and January 2 to 4, 2025, at Gocheok Sky Dome, spanning a total of six days.
