A few audience members from Soojin's fan concert are receiving hate and criticism from the soloist's fans for not participating in the concert group photo. The images also sparked speculations of these "fans" being scalpers, given the "rude" gesture they made.
On July 26, a fan shared some thoughts regarding the group photos from Soojin's first-ever fan concert tour, "Summer Daze," held earlier on July 20, in Taipei, Taiwan.
The netizen mentioned that an audience member ruined the photos. According to the photos, most of the fans present in the venue were seen with heart-g gesture poses like the soloist. However, some pointed out that others in the VIP front row weren't having fun at the concert.
"After seeing these concert photos with Soojin, I can only say that I don't have any thoughts regarding the insider tickets, since certain individuals can purchase tickets. But I hope that the organizers will stop being pretentious in future concerts.
Do not inform the public that the VIP tickets in the first-row are available because it's not possible to buy them. You can just give them away to the insiders. (I also saw some people in the first-row. I can say that these beautiful pictures are ruined, and I'm a bit angry)."
Meanwhile, another netizen claimed to have been present in the venue in the second row. The internet user shared that the man in front just used his phone during the whole concert.
"I was in the 2nd row and I watched that guy scroll on his phone from right from the start. It's super uncool how first row tickets are given to these kinds of people who don't watch the show."
The post then ignited negative remarks from fans:
- "I almost died seeing these photos. They're performers on stage, so is it that hard to give respect?"
- "I heard someone say that the old man was a ticket scalper."
- "They really should get out."
- "When I saw the VIP line, I was just speechless."
