Lisa was saved by the Prime Minister of Thailand, affirming that the No. 1 position is difficult for anyone to replace

BLACKPINK's youngest brother confirmed that he will participate in the Amazing Thailand Countdown 2025 New Year's Eve event. However, there are some people who think that she is out of time, boycotted by the Korean and Chinese markets, so she just accepted a job in her hometown.

Accordingly, as the first member of BlackPink to organize a global fan meeting tour after 8 years of operation, Lisa is in danger of losing tickets.

According to Kbizoom, only 15% of tickets were sold after the first day the female idol went on sale in Singapore.

In Indonesia, which has a large fan base and is considered Lisa's second home, less than half of the tickets were sold after three days of sales. CNN Indonesia even reported on this issue, calling the fan meeting "exorbitant". The lowest ticket class is 117 USD, while the highest is up to 378 USD.

As of October 31, on Ticketmaster, the number of seats for Lisa's fan meeting night in Singapore is still very vacant. Ticket prices range from $168-$348, excluding taxes and other services, totaling up to 15%.

In total, fans have to pay the cheapest tickets from $135 to $445 for a fan meeting.

The high ticket price led to controversy about Lisa's company being "fantastic", not properly evaluated and the influence of the idol made the stands potentially impossible to fill. "Are the organizers and Lisa too imaginary about themselves, don't they refer to other idols?" - a critical opinion.

Indonesian audience commented: "How is Lisa's fanmeeting ticket price more expensive than Ed Sheeran's most expensive concert ticket?", "Do the people who do this event have a mind when it comes to pricing. This is just a fan meeting, not a concert. Lisa's own songs are not many and the most expensive price is also close to 445 USD."

A comment that attracted more than 20,000 likes sarcastically said that this price was too high compared to just hearing Lisa sing a few songs and lip-syncing.

Put on the scale of comparison, Suga (BTS) has a much better record of selling out tickets. Even compared to other female solo artists such as Taeyeon and IU, Lisa's ticket sales are significantly lower.

Big Ground Entertainment - Lisa's fan meeting company - said that the listed price was an agreement between them and Lisa, and was adjusted according to the fan meeting concept.

"With the scale of production, the grand stage, LED lights unlike most fan meetings of K-pop artists, stage technology, some imported from Singapore and a concert-class sound system, this will be an unforgettable event for fans.

Because the stage conditions and event ideas are different from fan gatherings in general, the audience capacity is limited to suit the scale," said the representative of the unit about the reason for the high ticket price.

Ignored and turned away by international fans, Lisa is said to have to return to her hometown of Thailand to find a job.

Specifically, Lisa will be the main performer at the New Year's countdown event at ICONSIAM, Thailand's leading entertainment destination. The event takes place from December 29 to 31, promising to bring a grand festival of Thai culture combined with world-class performing arts.

Mr. Supoj Chaiwatsirikul, CEO of ICONSIAM, said the event aims to bring joy and entertainment to both Thai people and international tourists. Thereby, it also affirms that Thailand is a leading destination globally for countdown events to welcome the new year. "We are honored to have Lisa participate in this important event. Her global influence and attachment to Thailand will certainly raise the bar for the Amazing Thailand Countdown 2025," he said.

He also promised that this three-day, three-night event will be the most epic festival Thailand has ever seen, with eco-friendly fireworks and world-class entertainment from a variety of Thai and international artists, providing fun and an unforgettable experience.

Responding to the press recently, Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra said that she is very eager to see Lisa appear at this special event.
