- Review of the first day of the concert, BLACKPINK BORN PINK 2023, Supa Stadium, toilets, standing cards and various arrangements.
In the first round, January 7, the first step that entered the stadium The first thing that worries me is not the number of people watching the standing zone that is normally crowded, especially the front and middle zones. of the standing zone concert in the stadium level venue As we experienced when watching Coldplay’s Standing Zone concert at Rajamangala Stadium in 2017, however, the level of the stage and screens on both sides of the stage were relatively low when standing in the zone. The back of A2 and there is also a standing zone in the back like Zone B, so it is worrying that throughout the concert those in Zone A1, A2 behind and B who are not very tall will hardly see the top girls. The stage, plus the screen on the side is at the same level as the stage. If you see someone taller than 170 centimeters standing in front of you Guarantee that it will be blocked by the screen for sure. If the side screen position could be moved a little higher than before, it would be very good.
In the middle of the field is the control area, with a large screen behind it for the audience in Zone B and the middle seated zone to watch. But have to choose whether to watch on the screen Or watch the real artist far away on stage, not sure what the visibility of the audience in each zone is like? (The author is in the standing zone A2), but as far as looking at the current trend on the Internet, no one has said the location of the pole or any equipment. Looks like when holding a Maroon 5 concert at Rajamangala
While waiting for the BLACKPINK girls to go on stage, the side screen plays BLACKPINK’s music videos continuously, including the girls’ commercials. During the near concert, it started at 7:00 p.m. as originally scheduled. But even so, the concert started half an hour later than usual, which is unusual for Korean concerts that are usually played on time.
7:35 p.m. Approximately 4 girls, BLACKPINK, Jisoo , Jenny, Rose , Lisa , appeared on stage with the strongest song ” How You Like That “ , calling the power of the BLINKs to make the blood pump throughout the body. Waving a flickering light stick and dancing together happily, ending the song with a full set of fireworks from the first song, suitable for a world tour that chooses to host an open stadium in almost every country.
Then followed by many people’s favorite songs like ” Pretty Savage “ and “Whistle” which is a little disappointing that only half the song is sung. But it’s still a good show that comes with live music from the regular band, typical of YG concerts, and all 4 girls sing and dance live without falling.
BLACKPINK greeted the fans with Lisa , who alternated between English and Thai with the members and fans in the stadium, Jenny, Rose and Jisoo greeted the fans with a sweet smile and tried to speak short and simple Thai words with Fans all the time, loveliness and attention are considered full 10
Returned to the show with the song “Don’t K no w What To Do” where the girls walked and talked to the fans. In the secondary stage that extends a little closer to the fans, continues with ” Lovesick Girls “ separated by a VCR and resumes with ” Kill This Love “, “Crazy Over You”, ” Playing with Fire “, ” Tally ” and “Pink Venom” , in which each song, light, sound and fireworks are arranged periodically.
Camila Cabello’s cover of “Liar”, both singing and dancing live throughout the song, followed by Jenny with a new solo song . You & Me” with male dancers dancing against the backdrop of the moon. Both sexy and romantic at the same time. Rosé is very much with two solo songs, half of each song with “Hard to Love” , the solo song from the latest BORN PINK album, and ” On The Ground “ , a song from her own solo album that was previously released but has not yet been released. performed at the concert The production stage set is a black and white grid from above, as beautiful as ever. and finally with Lisa’s solo that comes in half of each song as well“LALISA” and “MONEY” who showed pole dance and invited the fans to dance. see you have to dance along can handle both singing and rapping
The girls reunited with “Shut Down” and “Typa Girl” before returning to talk briefly. Lisa talks about the hot weather. In Thailand, where a stylist tied up all the girls’ hair, Jenny spoke English and suggested that there were only two songs left. (Ending every sentence with the word ‘Yes’, very cute) Ending the concert before the encore with the songs everyone has been waiting for “DDU-DU DDU-DU” and “Forever Young” that BLACKPINK girls run around. stage to greet the fans closely
Shortly before the encore break, the girls returned in BORN PINK tour t-shirts but with fun, cute songs like “Yeah Yeah Yeah” and “Stay” before the girls packed a surprise cake for the girls. Happy Birthday retrospective to CHICHU or P’Jisoo of the band. and returned to end the concert with a smile with a song that the fans Unite together to get up and jump together in “As If It’s Your Last”
Previously, BLACKPINK held a world tour in several cities in the Americas and Europe. Thailand is the first country in Asia. (Apart from South Korea) If following the news of the girls may have seen the news that the fans Some people are not satisfied that in some songs the girls do not sing live, but from actually watching the concert. In Thailand, it was found that more than 24 songs were recorded in 2 hours. I dare say that BLACKPINK is one of the K-POP artists who sing live at the concert the most. if to speak clearly That is, in some heavy beats, both in the band’s songs and in each individual’s solo songs. (Especially Jenny and Lisa’s solo songs that have a trend from netizens, especially fans. There will be some backing tracks, but the girls don’t “lip sync”. The girls deliberately take the mic out of their mouths and don’t move their lips to sing during the backing track. It’s considered BLACKPINK to be honest with fans a lot because every time the mic is at the mouth That is, sing live only, fans. The American side might get used to seeing artists sing and dance every word throughout the song.
And for the K-POP industry, where the choreography is quite brutal and intense, BLACKPINK uses a backing track to help in some parts of the song. (Not the whole song) Personally, we don’t see it as such a serious matter. Even when singing live, there will be some shaking and distortion. but very little And it’s the nature of the live performance that both dance and sing for 2 hours. In the live singing part, it’s better than expected for everyone. Jenny, Rose, Jisoo and Lisa can sing and rap at full power and show signs of exhaustion. very little during the show Which we think is doing very well than expected. How about compared to the other K-POP artists we’ve been watching throughout 2022?

BLACKPINK members, although they do not prepare long Thai words to greet Thai fans, but the naturalness that does not try to invent. and the loveliness, bright smiles all the time of everyone is what makes fans fall in love with BLACKPINK. YG’s live music continues to perform well according to the label’s standards. Including the dancers of YG, where BLACKPINK gave part of the show for the dancers to let both men and women dance sexy, playful, but full of energy and screaming praise, not losing the artist’s performance at all And what I want to secretly admire a little more is the spirit of Jisoo, who is a member who hardly depends on the backing track in her solo songs. Causing us to wait and see when we will be able to listen to Ji Soo’s solo song on stage while other members The band has already got 2-3 of their own solo songs.
In the talking part, it may be a little less. The kind that speaks little, punches hard, despite having a Thai member like Lisa in the band. But maybe it’s because of the nature of the girls. It’s not a very long mount, plus YG has never had an interpreter to translate the language for artists on stage. Just enough to get rid of tiredness before entering the next song only And at the end of the concert there was not much ending, so it might be dry. It’s a bit too long for K-POP artist’s concerts, which usually end the show by each member rather long.
Personally, in the VCR part, both at the beginning of the concert and during the show. is a picture of a girl The camera angle is very beautiful editing is very good various productions As beautiful as a world-class artist But it might be a little disappointing that YG doesn’t use a single video storytelling clip. selling art only Causing the editing of the same scenes repeatedly over a period of 3-4 minutes, fans looking at it for a long time may get bored, unlike VCRs of other artists. which alternates between showing images and beautiful editing, switching between narrative VCRs that can draw the attention of music fans to the clip from beginning to end
in the stage If there could be a part of the stage extending further than the T-shaped secondary stage, it would be possible to make the show more interesting. and props that are steel frames and others There are not many as well. But overall, the performance of both artists, dancers and live bands is impressive and fulfilling until it doesn’t feel lacking either.
We secretly regret that we didn’t get to listen to Jenny’s ” Solo ” and BLACKPINK’s other famous song “BOOMB AYAH “, as well as not having a very slow singing part. Only “Tally” and “Stay” are mid-tempo songs. The girls have clearly shown the power of their voices. If they listen to “The Happiest Girl” at the concert as well, it would be a great blessing. But for those who like BLACKPINK’s show because they danced throughout the concert, there was no slow music. It can be considered a concert with a perfect setlist.
BLACKPINK is a talented artist who sings, dances, and has different charms. Hopefully in the future we will be able to see more of BLACKPINK’s concerts as the girls showed off their talents and trained hard since young to fully shine on stage. It can be said to be the K-POP girl group of the decade. It’s a pity that YG rarely let the girls Have a comeback or get on stage often, despite being an artist full of talent like this, but if there is an encore track, I guarantee that Thailand is the first country that girls will definitely come back to.
