From Tickets to Personal Medications, Here Are 9 Items You Must Bring When Attending a K-Pop Concert

Kapanlagi.com - Attending a concert is an exciting experience that is always anticipated, especially for K-Pop fans. For them, watching a concert is not just entertainment, but also a special moment to meet and get closer to their beloved idols in person. However, to ensure that this moment goes smoothly and enjoyably, there are several preparations that need to be made, one of which is bringing important items that will support your comfort while watching the concert.

To ensure your comfort while watching the concert, here are the essential items you should bring when attending a concert.

1. Ticket for Access to the Venue

For those of you who want to meet your beloved idol, bringing a ticket is a must that should not be forgotten. Imagine if you’ve worked hard during the ticket war, but you left your ticket at home. So, check again before you leave, whether your ticket is already in your bag or not. It would be such a shame, right?

However, if the ticket is an e-ticket, it's better to check your phone first to be safer. Make sure the ticket isn't deleted before you enter the venue.

2. Personal Data (ID Card or Driver's License)

To exchange an e-ticket for a physical ticket, you will usually be asked for personal data (ID card or driver's license). After that, your personal data will be matched with what is on the e-ticket website or application. Afterwards, you will receive a physical ticket (wristband or lanyard).

3. Phone to Capture Moments at the Concert

Nowadays, bringing a phone is almost a necessity, including when attending a concert. With your phone, you can take fancams of your favorite idol while they perform on stage. Then, the results of the fancam can serve as memories or can also be uploaded to your personal social media.

4. Powerbank to Keep Your Phone Battery Charged

The battery endurance of a phone varies for each user. If it starts at 100%, it usually lasts four to five hours, especially if you use your smartphone a lot. Now, if you want to watch a concert and diligently record the stage action, be prepared for the battery to drop quickly! The solution? Don't forget to bring a powerbank with at least 10,000 mAh so that those exciting moments are captured without worrying about running out of power.

5. Wallet with Cash Inside

Even though nowadays many food or drink stalls offer payment methods other than cash, there's nothing wrong with still carrying cash. If there's a signal disruption due to the large crowd, you can quickly pay with the cash you have.

6. Merchandise from Your Idol for Accessories

At the concert, you will see a sea of fans proudly carrying their idol's merchandise. From photocards to official lightsticks, fans usually choose unique and interesting items to feel the excitement together with their idol. Well, you shouldn't miss out and show your spirit to support your favorite idol. How? By bringing merchandise from your favorite bias to make the atmosphere at the concert even more festive.

7. Batteries for Backup in Case the Lightstick Battery Runs Out

The lightstick used for concerts usually requires three AAA batteries, which will run out if used for nearly three hours. Therefore, it's a good idea to bring backup batteries, because if one of those batteries runs out, the lightstick will not turn on.

8. Portable Fan

To avoid getting too hot while watching the concert, you must also bring a portable fan in your bag. This fan is very reliable for cooling off when you're having fun inside the venue. Whether in an indoor venue, outdoor, or while waiting in line at the entrance, this electronic device will definitely be your lifesaver to keep you cool. So, don't forget to bring it!

9. Personal Medications if Necessary

If you have a medical condition that requires personal medication, you must bring that medication. Promoters usually only provide the medications available in the first aid kit; for anything else, you need to bring your personal medications.

Those are the 9 items you must bring to make your K-Pop concert experience more comfortable and enjoyable. With careful preparation, you can focus on enjoying the concert without worrying about missing anything. So, make sure all the essential items are ready before the big day!
