Fan Exposes Horrible Experience Using SM’s Global Package
Recently, a fan who purchased SM Entertainment‘s global package to go to a concert exposed the room condition and gifts received online.
“SM Global Package” is a guaranteed method for foreigners to attend concerts in various countries. Most packages include hotel and transportation to the venue, with fans only needing to purchase plane tickets.
However, a fan exposed their frustration with the condition of their room despite paying a hefty price.
If you’re going to sell SM global packages like this, close down. (I chose the one-day package, which was 1,000,000 KRW ($~729.95 USD) per person for a twin bed.)

They also shared photos of the interior of the room.
Window view
Air conditioner
Mold in various parts of the room
For gifts, they received a pouch, concept photo cards, and a necklace for standing tickets.
They also added that the bedsheets and bathroom had a strange smell mixed with cigarettes with the bathroom covered in mold and mildew.
Although they purchased a VIP soundcheck package, they received concert entry numbers in the 600s, with some friends receiving numbers in the 900s.
The fan ended up leaving and moving to a new hotel on their own.
결국 호텔버리고 도착당일에 다른데 잡아서 옮겼듬^^
앞으로 적어도 마닐라만큼은 글패 절대 이용안할듯호텔 구린거 미리 안 알아본 내 잘못도 있긴한데
어차피 공연이 주목적이고 잠만 잘거니까 크게 신경안썼지..
그리고 동남아 글패는 좋은호텔 좋은번호대 준댔어서 이번에도 그러겟거니 했지..— boong……uh (@eatldh) August 12, 2024
I ended up leaving and moving to a different hotel the day I arrived. I will never purchase the global package again, at least for Manila. I know it’s my fault for not researching the hotel in advance, but I didn’t prioritize it because going to the concert was my main focus. I purchased it because I heard they gave a good hotel and concert entry number for Southeast Asia, but I guess I was wrong…
They also filmed a video of the room condition for reference.

Korean netizens were shocked at the state of the room and felt they make a claim and report it.
- “Shouldn’t they report this? I think they need to receive a refund.”
- “It’s so bad…I used the global package before and the hotel wasn’t this bad, but it was still bad. It wasn’t dirty so I just spent the night.”
- “Wow what’s with the room condition?”
- “They really trying to take all the fan’s money.”
- “I can excuse places like this in the U.S. or Europe, but this is unacceptable in Southeast Asia.”
- “OMG.”
- “Crazy…what is this?”
- “They have nothing to say even if they reported for this. How can they ask for that much money for this?”
- “I used the global package in Osaka, and the hotel and seat were pretty good, though.”
What are your thoughts on this?
