There were also minor errors on stage that drew negative reviews toward the group. Specifically, some audience members reviewed that “How You Like That” stage was not consistent among members. Others came to defense by saying there was a change to the choreography hence some members could not get it right away.

Apart from the performances, BLACKPINK took the chance to meet and greet their fans. The members had their moments to express their feelings fully. Lisa and Jennie could not help but tear up on-stage while sharing their thoughts.

To light up the mood, the members joked around with each other. As Lisa was expressing her compliments, Rosé took the chance and danced to the twerk in “MONEY” to show her excitement. The action caused Lisa to laugh out loud.

The grand concert and memorable experience on the first day drew attention, especially when the group rarely had a world tour. Fans are hoping for other explosive performances in future stages. 

BLACKPINK gained spotlight for their world tour. Their opening concert in Seoul was a success, leaving positive memories and affirm their position among third generation groups.
