[NEWS] 1,200 VIPS JAPAN GO TO KOREA FOR "2011 BIGSHOW"



Big Bang recently held their concert as five after two years of hiatus.

The event was attended by VIPs and over 1,200 Japanese fans traveled to Korea to see the boy's return to the center stage after a more than two-year absence.


Big Bang held three concerts at the Olympic Park Gymnastic Stadium in Seoul from Friday to Sunday, with many of the Japanese visitors watching more than one of them.

According to Look Korea Tour, which brought the Japanese fans in Korea on a tour package, some 60 percent attended two concerts and 15 percent all three.

A Japanese fan said, "I'd watch their concerts 10 or 20 times as long as I could get to see their faces."

Japanese fans pay from W900,000 to W1.9 million (U$1=W1,127) for three- or four-day tours, which include attending concerts or other band events. They tend to spend little money on shopping or sightseeing since their primary purpose is to watch the concerts.
