While many fans are excited about his upcoming concert, the event is faced with harsh criticism as the drought continues in Korea.
On the May 4 broadcast of MBC's "Radio Star," PSY appeared as a guest and shared that he bought drinkable water for the event and that his concert will use 300 tons of drinkable water per show delivered by water trucks.
Netizens are voicing that he should think of a different idea this year and refrain from doing his summer concert theme for the time being.
Some of the comments are:
"You use too much water in one performance"
"Do a different concept this year"
"Water waste is too much"
"There's still drought so think of another concept"
