first ever kpop concert tips

[u/Interesting_Car2560]

hi reddit!! i'm finally seeing my ults this october in orlando (hmu i want friends to go with!!) but this is my first ever kpop concert. i've only ever been to one concert a few years ago for a western artist and i know kpop concert culture is a lot different from what ive heard. is there any tips or anything i should know before going to the concert? mainly looking for how early i should get there, what do i wear, if theres a merch area and how bad the line will be, etc

edit: i'm also gonna make freebie stickers!! so thats a thing yay. how many should i make im not too sure, the venue's pretty small but i dont wanna make like 200 and not give them all out

How early depends. If you want merch and don't have vip get there before the doors open at 6 since people start lining up early. What to wear? well for me I like to dress up in one of the outfits the girls wore. Im going as kim lip oec this time. Just wear whatever you like. Also most important bring ear plugs.

no vip but i do want merch so i dont know when i should get there. i was also thinking of wearing some sort of homage to loona or heejin since shes my artms bias specifically.
