Tickets for the band’s show cost 2,800-14,800 baht ($80-$424) in Thailand, 388-1,888 ringgit ($83-$406) in Malaysia, 1.35-3.8 million rupiah ($90-$253) in Indonesia, and S$168-$398 ($124-$295) in Singapore.
Fans have been comparing these prices to that of American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift’s "Eras Tour" shows, which have been announced as $108-$348.
Swift’s concerts often last around three hours, while Blackpink usually perform for around 1.5 hours.
"I thought I would buy tickets for both nights in Hanoi, but now I think I will probably attend one night," Phuong Nga, 2018 Miss Vietnam runner-up and a longtime fan of Blackpink, told VnExpress.
Blackpink, formed in 2016, include Jisoo, Lisa, Rosé, and Jennie.
The band quickly achieved huge success in South Korea before becoming one of the most popular in the world.
Their two studio albums, "The Album" and "Born Pink," achieved massive success internationally, with the latter topping the Billboard 200 and UK Albums Chart, making them the first K-pop girl group to do so.
