POSTED ON : Selasa, 12 Juni 2012

Big Bang has proven their undying popularity once again by managing to crash an
entire server in just 30 seconds of their concert tickets going up for
sale!
On June 12th, YG Entertainment revealed that tickets
for the group’s Jakarta concert in Indonesia received such an
overwhelming amount of orders from fans on the 9th that they were sold
out in the blink of an eye.
The online distributor for the tickets commented, “Every single
ticket for Big Bang’s first Indonesian concert has been completely sold
out. Tickets were sold out on ticket.com in just 10 minutes, while on
MyTicket 50,000 people overwhelmed the server within 30 seconds of the
tickets opening up for pre-sale and caused the servers to crash.”
Fortunately, the servers were able to be back up the same day, and tickets were promptly sold out less than an hour later.
Representatives of YG expressed, “Big Bang has shown their power
as a leader of K-Pop by being able to pull off such a feat despite not
having any special promotions in the country.”
