Tickets are priced from $148 to $388, and the first pre-sale — reserved for fans, known as Army, who signed up for the Army Membership Presale on Weverse — started at noon on June 3. Lee described the ticketing process as "super nerve-wracking" as they "knew demand would be extremely high and that securing tickets would not be easy".
Despite having enlisted a help-to-buy service in hopes of securing the ticket, Lee added that they still logged onto Ticketmaster to increase their chances. The service charges an additional $800 on top of the ticket price, which would bring the total to about $1,200.
However, Lee shared that a person who helps run the ticketing service had reached out to her and offered to waive the additional charges. A post shared by Yvonne LaReina Lee "I think it took quite some time before she fully believed it was real. As someone who absolutely loves BTS, this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience for her.
" In an Instagram video on Wednesday, Lee excitedly shares the news with her helper, who comes running down the stairs in joy and the two share a warm embrace. "Thank you for turning what seemed like an impossible dream into a reality for Mo," she captioned. "Mo is still in disbelief. And honestly, so am I."
