MONSTA X’s I.M Faces The Heat For Concert Tickets Not Selling Well
MONSTA X‘s I.M will host the encore stop for his world tour, Off The Beat, in Seoul on January 17 to 19, 2025.
The concert will be held over three days as the conclusion for his first solo world tour. Although the seats to the second floor and two standing pits have already sold out over the three days, the third and largest standing pit is facing a lack of sales. Over the three days, more than half the seats in that pit remain unsold.
For the last day, there are 451 seats remaining.
The second day saw 799 seats remaining.
The first day had an overwhelming 965 seats left.
A majority of the standing tickets towards the back remain unsold.
A viral tweet on X with over 1.1 million hits chatised I.M, wondering why he did not keep the concert to two days.

FR. He should’ve kept it to Saturday and Sunday.

Many felt that if he had kept the concert shorter, he might have sold out.

If he only did two days… It might have sold out.

Most encore concert stops are only hosted for the weekend. As the venue is small to begin with, it seems like I.M had wanted to cater to as many fans as possible.
