A 23-year-old individual, A, claimed to have purchased a concert ticket through Facebook for 2 million Vietnamese dong, which was originally priced at 1.8 million Vietnamese dong. They further explained, "Because the ticket price was too cheap, it might have been a scam. However, I decided to pay extra to buy it, but ended up getting scammed. As soon as I transferred the money, the seller blocked me."

Another victim, a 22-year-old named B, also fell victim to ticket fraud through an SNS ticket purchase. She bought a ticket originally priced at 1.2 million dong for 1.5 million dong and, like many others, got blocked by the seller after making the payment. B revealed, "More than 10 friends and family members have also been scammed just like me."

BLACKPINK's Jennie faced criticism for her "sloppy dancing" during a performance but won over the online community with her heartfelt explanation!

As the girl group BLACKPINK gained worldwide fame, member Jennie also became increasingly popular. However, she has faced criticism regarding her performances. On the 14th, Jennie addressed these criticisms, capturing the attention of netizens. Jennie made a guest appearance on popular British singer Dua Lipa's BBC radio show, which was broadcasted on the 14th (local time). During the show, Jennie discussed her journey of becoming a prominent member of a K-pop girl group and shared her feelings of pressure and more. On that day, Jennie also addressed the criticism from netizens regarding her alleged carelessness while dancing on stage. She explained, "Due to wearing high heels during performances, I have experienced injuries." She further added, "But what I want to emphasize is that I struggle with controlling my body and I'm not adept at dancing in heels. Wearing heels sometimes causes my feet to swell, which affects my stamina. Consequently, I often stumble while attempting dance moves in heels, giving the impression that I haven't given my best and disappointing my fans." Jennie openly expressed her desire to communicate to her fans that she is currently in a phase of self-learning and growth. It's not just Jennie, but BLACKPINK as a whole has faced consistent criticism from netizens regarding their perceived "sloppy dancing" in the past. Regarding this, it is the first time that Jennie has personally addressed and provided an explanation for the main reasons behind the criticism. Netizens have praised Jennie for her honesty upon learning about it, leaving comments such as, "This is the first time I've seen such genuine expression," "She's so cool," "The interview content is incredible, Jennie is truly impressive." "What's there to curse about, these haters... Keep going, Jennie!" "After watching this interview, I like Jennie even more." "Jennie is so honest and adorable." "I appreciate this down-to-earth side of Jennie." "She truly embodies the coolness of Korean culture." These are some of the positive comments expressing support for Jennie.

An administrator also stated, "Due to various factors, some people might resell their tickets after purchasing, making it difficult to differentiate between legitimate sellers and fraudsters."

BLACKPINK's Lisa rumoured to be dating Frédéric Arnault! YG Entertainment has not responded, causing frenzy among international media and netizens.K-Pop

BLACKPINK's Lisa rumoured to be dating Frédéric Arnault! YG Entertainment has not responded, causing frenzy among international media and netizens.

According to reports from international media, there are rumors circulating that BLACKPINK member Lisa is dating the heir of the LVMH Group, the world's largest luxury conglomerate. Photos related to this rumour have been circulating on social media platforms, leading to lively discussions among Korean netizens. The person who is rumored to be in a relationship with Lisa is Frederic Arnault, the son of Bernard Arnault, the chairman of LVMH, the world's largest luxury goods group, and one of the wealthiest individuals according to Forbes. Frederic Arnault, aged 28, is a prominent figure in the super-rich second generation and holds the position of CEO within the group's luxury watch brand. In a recently circulated video, Lisa and her friends were spotted gathering at a restaurant in Paris. The footage captured a moment where Lisa was seen leaning gently on Frederic Arnault's shoulder, indicating a close and intimate interaction between the two individuals. This glimpse has further fueled speculation about their rumoured relationship. It is worth mentioning that Frederic Arnault has long been an avid fan of BLACKPINK. He shared his enthusiasm by posting pictures and videos on his social media accounts from a BLACKPINK concert he attended in Los Angeles two months ago. In his posts, Frederic Arnault congratulated the group on their fantastic performance and expressed his anticipation for their future show in Paris. Additionally, he openly shared a backstage photo featuring himself and BLACKPINK, highlighting his personal connection to the group. These instances further demonstrate Frederic Arnault's support and interest in BLACKPINK. Indeed, rumors of Lisa and Frederic Arnault dating had already surfaced during the BVLGARI event in June. However, in response to the renewed speculation, Lisa's management company, YG Entertainment, has not issued any official statement yet. Netizens who caught wind of the dating rumors between Lisa and Frederic Arnault have been expressing their thoughts. Comments such as "We're not sure if it's true, but she's rumored to be dating someone incredibly wealthy," "Whether they're friends or a couple, they make a good-looking pair," and "Their outing looks so joyful!" have been circulating. There's also excitement over the fact that Lisa's rumored partner is the son of the LVMH group. Certain netizens have raised doubts about the evidence presented, questioning whether simply having a meal with friends can be considered proof of dating. Comments like "Isn't having a meal together normal?" and "Let's respect their privacy regarding their love lives! I hope BLACKPINK continues to deliver amazing performances after contract renewals" reflect a desire to separate personal matters from professional endeavors.

BLACKPINK's contracts are about to expire! Insiders reveal that there is a high possibility of Lisa leaving YG Entertainment!K-Pop

BLACKPINK's contracts are about to expire! Insiders reveal that there is a high possibility of Lisa leaving YG Entertainment!

The exclusive contract of the popular girl group BLACKPINK is set to expire next month, and there is a lot of curiosity regarding whether the members will renew their contracts. However, yesterday (12th), it has been reported that there is a possibility of Thai member Lisa leaving YG Entertainment. As August approaches, it marks the expiration of the exclusive contract for the girl group BLACKPINK. Reports indicate that YG Entertainment has been engaged in negotiations to determine whether the members will renew their contract, but as of now, no agreement has been reached. While YG Entertainment is eager to reach a favourable agreement before the deadline, it appears that there are significant differences in the positions of both parties. According to sources in China, there is a growing possibility that BLACKPINK member Lisa may choose not to renew her contract with YG Entertainment. An anonymous Chinese agent revealed to Korean media outlet 'The Munhwa Il-bo' on the 11th that they have been involved in coordinating schedules between YG Entertainment and Lisa, indicating that there have been discussions regarding her potential appearances outside of the agency. However, the source highlighted the challenge of negotiating Lisa's schedule beyond August due to the contract renewal process between YG Entertainment and Lisa being relatively opaque. In response to this information, 'The Munhwa Il-bo' reached out to YG Entertainment to verify the details. YG Entertainment responded to the inquiry by stating, "The world tour and individual schedules are not related to Lisa's contract renewal." While YG has not provided a clear stance on Lisa's contract renewal, it can be verified that Lisa's recent schedule with the Chinese side is indeed accurate based on this response. After the news became public, netizens expressed their thoughts, with many speculating on the future of BLACKPINK's members. Comments such as "If Lisa doesn't renew her contract, it seems unlikely that the other three members will too," "It appears that Lisa won't be renewing her contract with YG," and "With the contract expiring in August and no news yet, it seems the chances of renewal are slim" were frequently seen. At the same time, some netizens expressed their concerns regarding Lisa's potential departure from YG and her future as a member of BLACKPINK. Comments such as "Even if Lisa doesn't renew her contract, can she still work with BLACKPINK?" and "After her contract ends, it's her freedom to explore other options, but it would be beneficial if Lisa could continue participating in BLACKPINK activities occasionally. Is there a possibility for her to transfer under such conditions?" reflect the various opinions and hopes regarding Lisa's potential career path.
