With TREASURE performing in Manila for their "HELLO" World Tour, Filipino TEUMEs couldn't be more excited. However, some are calling out the organizer due to the concert's high prices. 

Here's what they are saying.

Unreasonably High? TEUMEs Slams Organizer For Prices in TREASURE's 'HELLO' Tour

On January 10, concert organizer Live Nation PH caught flak within TREASURE's fandom TEUMEs, when they posted the announcement on Twitter.

The post stated that TREASURE will be coming back to the Philippines for their world tour. It is scheduled on April 15 and the ticket onsale will start from January 19 to 21.

They also posted instructions on how fans can purchase the presale tickets.

One of the posts also stated that concert goers can sign up for an official fanclub TREASURE Maker Membership on Weverse. The registration dates will begin on January 10 at 1 P.M., and fanclub presales on January 19, 10 A.M. to 11:59 P.M.

Many fans were excited on the news since they will get to meet TREASURE once more.

However, most of their sentiments went to the high pricing, leading them to criticize Live Nation PH.

The event showcased a price of 3,500 PHP for General Admission seats to 19,500 PHP for VIP section.

Furthermore, VIP ticket holders have the option of attending either the soundcheck or send-off segment.

TEUMEs expressed that most of the goers are going to be students and non-working. Most of them begged for a lower price in order to purchase the tickets.

Others voiced out their frustration in the UB Regular seating, which costs 7,000 PHP pesos.

"Most of the TEUMEs are students! As much as we want to buy tickets, we can't afford it since we're non-working people. Please consider us. We want to see TREASURE, as well as they wants to see us. It's so expensive, how dare you."

"Majority of Treasure Makers are only students, and the ticket price is really expensive considering it's their first concert?"

"My plans for getting the VIP Standing were ruined because of this. I thought the maximum limit for the prices is in the range of 13,000 to 14,000. But seeing it reach almost 20k? I'm just in the middle of gathering savings."

TREASURE's Manila Concert Prices Compared To Previous Events Handled By Organizer

Furthermore, TEUMEs also stated how unfair the pricing is for a 2-year-old K-pop group. They also compared Live Nation PH's costs with previous concerts such as SEVENTEEN's "BE THE SUN" and BLACKPINK's "BORN PINK" world tours.

"Hi @livenationph, TREASURE is a 4th-gen group, and this is their FIRST world tour, so how come it is much more expensive than both Be The Sun and Born Pink concerts? I hope you also took into consideration that most of us are students."

"What do you mean 3,500 for the Gen Ad? TREASURE is a 2-year-old K-pop boy group, yet their tickets are more expensive than BLACKPINK's?"
