Korean Culture Notes
Booking in Advance: Popular performances, especially K-pop concerts or hit musicals, sell out very quickly. It’s crucial to check schedules and book tickets as soon as they become available. Websites like Interpark, Yes24, and Melon Ticket are common platforms.
Check Official Sources: Always rely on official websites of the venue, production company, or authorized ticketing platforms for the most accurate and up-to-date schedule information. Avoid relying solely on unofficial fan pages or third-party resellers.
Punctuality: Being on time is important in Korean culture, especially for performances. Latecomers might not be allowed entry until intermission or a designated break, so plan to arrive well before the scheduled start time.
Casting Schedules: For musicals and plays with rotating casts, specific casting schedules (캐스팅 일정 – kae-seu-ting il-jeong) are often released separately. Fans often check these carefully if they want to see a particular actor perform.
Cancellation Notices: While rare, performances can be cancelled or rescheduled due to unforeseen circumstances. Keep an eye on official announcements or notifications from the ticketing platform, especially closer to the performance date.
