Hardcore Kpop fans outside Korea - formula 1 Singapore Bigbang

It's amazing how Kpop fans are so crazy and pumped up way before a concert. I mean if u queued up for Metallica that would be understandable as they don't have concerts once or twice a year in the same location. Kpop bands and stars are constantly releasing new albums and holding world tours ( some say only Asia ) and there is no news that it will slow down.

Fans queue overnight or even a few nights under sun, rain, moon, cold and many have no chance to ease or buy more food/water cause they might lose their spots. This is quite unreasonable in 2013!!! 

Who is to blame for all this? Parents? Fans? Artists? Or the organisers?

Everyone plays a part in this. It would be great to have organisers take the first step in coming up with a better system in managing the fans who want to be right in front of the stage if it was a free standing one. Other than making the mostly younger generation queue overnight and endure the pain of getting UTI and starvation or even dehydration, why can't they start queuing maybe a few hours before the gates open. The organisers have the biggest say in all of these matters.

I'm sure even if they don't, the hardcore fans will still willingly queue up and sleep on the street just to be in front. It's so worth it for them I'm sure. But what about safety and health reasons? If only all the fans were as dedicated to life priorities as this. 

I would love to be at the front of the stage too but I wouldn't queue up at 10 pm to a concert that starts at 11pm the next day. You would be so freaking tired and exhausted from the weather and fatigue. Exactly my experience at the G dragon concert although I didn't queue but I got up early and arrive in the morning for an 8 pm concert. I was exhausted by the time I got to my seat. 

Pity them too especially the ones queuing last night for the Big Bang concert for Formula1 Singapore. Picture was at 10pm and till 11.15pm, I hope they can still physically and mentally enjoy the concert! Real VIPs!!!


Update from my friend Karen: 1:30pm their queuing at the barricaded lines and definitely no chance of peeing unless u make peace with all those behind u!
Hope no body faints!


BigBang, with all the support of your fans, please never ignore what they do to support you. Without them you will be nothing.
