 D-Day of ticket selling:
I only tried to visit SM Tickets site last November 19 whilst on break at work, not knowing that there is Live Nation PH presale for the Blackpink Born Pink tickets. I used my friend's SM Ticket account since the credit card that we will be using is her card. I am supposed to buy tickets during public sale last November 20. I can choose different tickets and seats at that time but the only ticket we can afford and want is the ubc regular. Lucky enough I was able to secure 4 ubc regular tickets during LNPH presale. 








Felt so anxious about the ticket selling and I can't even imagine that I was able to get our tickets since the site was kept queueing. And I checked the site last November 20 during public sale. I am really glad that I tried to purchase the tickets during LNPH presale because the online site on the day of public sale was kept crashing and as far as I know none of the blinks were able to secure tickets online so they went to SM Tickets outlet.

 D-day of concert: 
We all know that the venue of the concert is on Philippine Arena so I tried to look for a carpool that's coming from Bulacan (near our area). Luckily, I found one on twitter and I immediately reserve my seat. On the day of the concert, I left the house 12:30PM and arrived at the venue at around 2:00PM. Some of my friends are already waiting for me outside the arena since the start of the queueing to go inside was around 5:00PM (it's the time that I remember so please bear with me haha). It was scorching hot when we are outside the venue so we ended up just sitting on some grass.

At around 6:00PM we got inside the concert venue but we won't able to buy foods inside because the line is so overwhelming so we decided to just buy some water and head on to our dedicated seats. The show started at 7:15PM and lasted for two hours. The show was done by 9:15PM.


Here are the setlist from their concert last March 25:

- How You Like That
- Pretty Savage
- Whistle
- Don't Know What To Do
- Lovesick Girls
- Kill This Love
- Crazy Over You
- Playing With Fire
- Tally
- Pink Venom

- SOLO (Jisoo) "Liar"
SOLO (Jennie) "You And Me"
- SOLO (Rosé) "Hard To Love / On The Ground"
- SOLO (Lisa) "Lalisa / Money"

- Shut Down
- Typa Girl
- Ddu-Du Ddu-Du
- Forever Young

ENCORE
- Yeah Yeah Yeah
- Stay
- As If It's Your Last


We had so much fun and we did enjoy the concert. I hope when they come back here we are on the VIP section so it'll be more exciting. See you again, Blackpink!



To be honest, I'm not satisfied with Live Nation PH on how they handle the ticket selling or even the queueing on the venue of the concert  unlike other who manages concerts here in the Philippines. So I hope when they handle famous artists they already know what to do by now.

The day of ticket selling:

I waited for almost 2hours at the ticketnet site to open.
But the site doesn't cooperate, it was always crashing when I opened it on laptop but I opened the site also on my phone and luckily I was able to go through the site (choosing seats).






The feeling was surreal. I can't even imagine that I can get ticket since the site was a bit crashing (ticketnet.com.ph). Thanks for my fast internet at home (shoutout to Converge! LOL). The ticket that I bought were 2 Box B.
And this announcement makes me happy. Good job Ma-aenas!❤️




Let’s get it started because I'm too excited to share my experience with you guys.

♡ 

The day before of concert:
My friend took a picture of me with the concert tour banner of IU. She told me that "you won't be able to get a picture tomorrow because of the crowded people." And she was right then. Thanks for that girl! 





♡ 

The day of concert: Actually I was near the venue around 5:30PM I guess. I've waited for my companion at Bonchon since I need to eat first 'coz I was a bit hungry that time because of my travel time from Bulacan to Cubao.
At around 6:30PM we got inside the concert venue and as long as you have reserved seat you can get inside in no time. 
By then the concert starts at exactly 7:10PM.



Thank you for the banners IU Phils. xoxo!




The concert lasted for almost 4hrs (+) and we are still in awe. This has been IU's first concert in Manila and she did a great job. It was a fulfilling and one of the most memorable concert experience that I've watched. Even though I'm not a fan since IU started and the number of songs that I know was just a little, I didn't think nor expect that I will enjoy the night.







 It was amazing! Thank you for a great night indeed, IU! Please come back in Manila soon! 

Thank you also to my concert buddy! My eonni in the office! xoxo
