BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR concert review [BORN PINK] BANGKOK creates an impression on the cuteness and nature and abilities of each member that shines in all aspects

BLINKs fans finally got a chance to see the real voice of BLACKPINK girls in over 3 years at the concert. BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR [BORN PINK] BANGKOK It will be held on 7-8 January 2023 at Supacalasai Stadium or National Stadium by Live Nation Tero

Sanook has location reviews. Facilities at the event and other experiences are given in another article. This article will review the artist’s performance only. and concert productions only

In the first round, January 7, the first step into the stadium The first thing that worries me is not the number of people watching the standing zone which is usually packed, especially the front zones and middle the fixed zone concert at the stadium level venue As we have experienced when watching the fixed zone concert from Play cool At Rajamangala Stadium in 2017, however, the level of the stage and screens on both sides of the arena is relatively low when standing in the back zone A2 and there are also standing zones behind Zone B. It is therefore a cause for concern throughout the concerts those in zones A1, A2 behind and B who are not very tall will hardly see the women on stage at all, and the screen is on the side close to the stage. If you see someone taller than 170 centimeters standing in front of you Guarantee that he will be blocked by the screen for sure. If the position of the side screen could be moved a little higher than before, it would be very good.

In the center of the pitch is the control area, with a large screen behind it for the audience in Zone B and the middle seating zone to watch. But you have to choose whether you want to watch on the screen Or watch the real artist far away on the stage, not sure what the visibility of the audience is like in each zone? (The author is in the stable 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. It’s like organizing a concert.

while waiting for the girls GOD’S POINT Take the stage, where the side screens loop BLACKPINK’s music videos, including the girls’ commercials. During the intimate concert, it started at 7:00 pm as originally arranged. But even so, the concert started half an hour later than usual, which is unusual for Korean concerts which are usually played on time.

7:35 pm About 4 BLACKPINK girls Jisoo Jennie Rose Lisa appear on stage with the strongest song “How You Like It” Summons the power of BLINKs to get blood flowing throughout the body. Wave a light stick flash and dance along with fun End 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 continue with many people’s favorite songs like “Pretty Savage” a “whistle” It is a bit disappointing that only half of the song is sung. But it’s still a good show that comes with live music from the regular band like a normal YG concert, and the 4 girls singing and dancing live without any pressure.

BLACKPINK greeted the fans, together with Lisa who switched between English and Thai with the members and fans in the field, Jenny, Rose and Jisoo greeted the fans with a sweet smile and tried to speak short and simple Thai words with the Fans all the time, loving. and care is considered a full 10

Come back to the show with music. “Don’t know what to do” where the girls walk and talk to the fans in the secondary stage which extends a little closer to the fans, and then “loving women” separated by VCR and resumed with “Kill This Love”, “Crazy Over You”, “Playing With Fire”, “Tally” a “pink poison” In each song, light, colour, sound and fireworks are arranged from time to time.

When it came to the individual phase of everyone arranged in a row, all 4 people with Jisoo started with the song. “liar” Camila Cabello’s cover, both singing and dancing live throughout the song, followed by Jenny with a new solo song. “You and me” with male dancers dancing against the background of the moon Sexual and romantic at the same time. Rose very much with two solo songs half of each song with “hard to love” Individual songs from the latest album PINK WAS BORN a “On the ground” A song from his own solo album that was previously released but has never been performed in concert. A black and white grid from above is the production stage set, as beautiful as ever. and finally with Lisa’s solo which also becomes half of each song “LALISA” a MONEYwhich shows pole dancing and invites to dance until the fans see you have to dance along can handle singing and rapping

The women reunited with “shut down” a “Typa Girl” before coming back to talk briefly Lisa talks about the hot weather. In Thailand, where a stylist was tying up all the girls’ hair, Jenny spoke in English and suggested that there were only two songs left. (Finishes every sentence with the word ‘Yes’, very cute) Ending the concert before the encore with the song everyone has been waiting for. “DOU-DU DDU-DU” a “Forever Young” where the BLACKPINK girls ran around the stage to greet the fans closely

Just before the encore break, the girls returned in BORN PINK tour t-shirts, but they brought fun, cute songs like “Yes Yes Yes” a “wait” Before the girls organized a big cake surprise for a Happy Birthday back to CHICHU or P’Jisoo from the band. and returned to the end of the concert with a smile with a song that the fans Together, they got up and jumped and floated inside. “Like If It’s Your Last”

Before that, BLACKPINK held a world tour in several cities in America and Europe. Thailand is the first country in Asia. (Apart from South Korea) If following the news of the girls you may have seen the news that the fans Some people are not satisfied that the girls don’t sing live in some songs, but from actually watching the concert. In Thailand, it was found that more than 24 songs were recorded in 2 hours. I dare to say that BLACKPINK is one of the K-POP artists who sing live in the biggest concert. if to speak clearly That is, in some heavy beats, in the songs of the band and in the solo songs of each individual. (Especially Jenny and Lisa’s solo songs are trending by netizens, especially fans. There will be some background 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. a lot because every time the mic is in the mouth That’s only being sung live, but there may be fans in the US used to seeing the artist 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 background track to help in some parts of’ the song. (Not the whole song) Personally, we don’t see it as such a serious issue. Even when singing live, there will be some shaking and distortion. but very little. And the nature of the live performance is that both dancing and singing for 2 hours. In the live singing part, it’s better than expected for everyone. Jenny, Rose, Jisoo and Lisa can sing and rap full of power and show signs of fatigue. very little during the show Which is doing very well than expected in our opinion. Why not compare 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 delight, bright smiles all the time 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 YG dancers BLACKPINK released part of the show for the dancers. Men and women can dance sexually, playfully, but full of energy and can call the screams of admiration as well as the performances of the artists. And what I secretly want to admire a little more is the spirit of Jisoo, who is a member who hardly relies on the background track in her individual songs. Cause we wait to see when we will be able to see and listen to Jisoo’s solo song on stage while other members of the band have already had 2-3 of their own solo songs.

In the speaking part, it can be a little less. The type that talks a little, hits hard, despite having a Thai member like Lisa in the band. But maybe it’s because of the women’s nature. It is not a very long mount, and YG has never had a translator to translate the language for artists on stage. Just enough to get rid of fatigue before going into the next song alone And at the end of the concert there wasn’t much of an ending, so maybe it was dry. It’s a bit too long for K-POP artist concerts, which usually end the show by each member rather long.

In person, in the VCR section, at the start of the concert and during the show. is a picture of a girl The camera angle is very beautiful very well edited various productions As beautiful as a world class artist But maybe it’s a little disappointing that YG doesn’t use one video story telling clip. selling art only Causing the editing of the same scenes over and over again over a period of 3-4 minutes, fans who look at it for a long time may get bored, unlike other artists’ VCRs. that switches between showing photos and beautiful editing, switching to a narrative VCR that can draw music fans’ attention to the clip from start to finish

in the stage If part of the stage could extend 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 aren’t many either. But overall, the performance of the two artists, dancers and live bands is impressive and satisfying until it doesn’t feel lacking either.

It’s a shame we didn’t get to listen to Jenny’s “Solo” and another BLACKPINK hit, “BOOMBAYAH”, as well as not getting a very slow singing part. You can clearly show the power of your voice. If you listen to “Y Ferch Hapusaf” at the concert as well, it should be a great blessing. But for those who like BLACKPINK’s show because they dance throughout the concert, there is no slow music. It can be considered a concert with a perfect set list.

BLACKPINK is a talented artist who sings, dances, and has a different charm. Hopefully in the future we will see more BLACKPINK concerts as the girls show their talents and train hard from a young age to shine fully on stage. This can be said to be the K-POP girl group of the decade. It’s a pity that YG rarely let the girls Come back or go on stage often, even though you’re such a talented artist, but if there’s an encore track, I guarantee it’s Thailand first that women will definitely come back to.
