Translation: “These are the tickets for YG WINNER’s concert tomorrow at 6 PM and Olympic Gymnastics Hall. I have 4. They all cost around 77,000 Won ($60 USD) each. I want to trade for fruits that I can eat with my friends~ ^^”

Even with giving out many invitation tickets, they couldn’t even fill the stadium ^^.”

[ +181 / -50] Yes due to their failed concert, they were able to donate 100 million won (around $80,000 USD). They had an hiatus for about a year and a half which led to many fans leaving. Which groups can donate that much despite these facts?

[ +159 / -29] But do you know what? Out of their EXIT album, they have only released E and they will be doing a reality program together. Stop posting the same post more than once. You guys are just insecure that WINNER might become too popular.
