An organization that resold scalped tickets for concerts — from singer G-Dragon to the group Blackpink — at up to 25 times the price was spotted.
MBC Every1's Hidden Eye, airing at 8:30 p.m. on the 4th, will focus intensively on the reality of organized scalped ticket transactions for concerts.
In the "Kwon Il-yong's crime rules" segment, the scene of a scalping organization reselling idol concert tickets at up to 25 times the price was captured. They were found to have bulk secured tickets for popular performances by G-Dragon, Seventeen, Blackpink and others and resold them at high prices, taking in about 7.1 billion won in revenue.
During the ongoing scalping transactions, a buyer suddenly changed their attitude and the scene turned into an unexpectedly tense situation, and Kim Dong-hyeon, who was watching, could not hide his surprise, saying "My heart drops just watching." Attention is focused on the organized scalped ticket distribution structure and transaction methods, and what lies behind them.
On that day's broadcast, former KARA member and actor Han Seung-yeon appears as a special guest. Naming Hidden Eye as a program she usually enjoys watching, Han Seung-yeon expressed her fandom toward 3COPS, saying "It feels like seeing a celebrity," and could not hide her excitement, saying "I feel like I walked into the TV." Reports say she actively shared her opinions throughout the filming in a bright atmosphere.
The broadcast also spotlights a deadly accident that occurred on the highway. A truck wheel measuring about 1 m in diameter and weighing about 60 kg flew toward a moving bus, pierced the driver's seat, and the bus stopped after striking the center divider. The bus driver ultimately lost his life in the accident.
At the tragic situation that unfolded in an instant, Han Seung-yeon could not continue, saying "How do you avoid that?" and Kim Dong-hyeon was also greatly shocked, calling it "a bolt from the blue."
