• god Cracks Down on Ticket Scalping for 2024 Solo Concert ‘CHAPTER 0’

    With a huge buzz surrounding god's (g.o.d) 2024 solo concert, 'CHAPTER 0,' the organizers are taking tough measures to combat ticket scalping.

    On September 5, the organizers shared a message on god’s official SNS, saying, "To ensure everyone can enjoy 'CHAPTER 0' from September 27 to 29 and to promote a fair ticketing process, please avoid illegal ticket transactions. We are actively monitoring for any fraudulent activities."

    Tickets bought from unauthorized sources or with extra fees outside of the official booking platform (Interpark Tickets) could be canceled without notice if found to be illegal. The organizers warned that even if you have the tickets on the day of the event, you might be denied entry if the tickets are deemed invalid, and strict measures will be taken.

    They also advised against sharing ticket booking information or personal details with others, as this could lead to fraud. They stressed that trying to buy or report fraudulent tickets directly is not allowed.

    The 'CHAPTER 0' concert, which represents the intersection of fans and marks a new chapter beyond their 25th anniversary, has already made headlines with its three-day sold-out shows, showcasing impressive ticket demand and solidifying its unique appeal.

    The concert will feature a special 360-degree stage for the first time in concert history, promising to wow fans. Co-directors Son Ho-young and Kim Tae-woo are working hard to ensure an outstanding performance.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
