The concert was held at the Fox Theater which I’ve been to before when I watched Chicago and CATS, both musicals, but this was the first concert I ever saw here. All the staff at the venue was extremely nice and helpful. I often hear “horror stories’ of K-pop concertgoers about the people at the venues mistreating them or not being organized but all the staff that we interacted was so lovely and helpful. There was a lady in the restroom who kept letting us know when they had empty stalls open and another lady helped us find our seats. Since I’m not flowing in money I bought the cheapest tickets I could get which were on the top floor but they were pretty good seats. There was a row of 5-6 empty seat in front of us which was great because we could see the stage better. They also had screens so we could see the member’s gorgeous faces.
Overall, I had an amazing time! I was really emotional at the beginning of the show because I couldn’t believe they were real! I’m so used to watching MONSTA X behind screens but for them to be right there justs a few feet away from me! I couldn’t! I still get giddy thinking about the show. It was one of the best days of my life and I can’t wait to see my boys in the future! Despite Wonho being unwell he still was a trooper and put on an amazing show! At one point in the concert, he was looking up on the top floor, directly at my section for very long. Then, during his speech, he said that he likes to look at Monbebe in the eyes. *squeal* I’m pretty sure he didn’t make eye contact with me but I like to think because of the empty row in front of us that he had a better look at me. This is just me overanalyzing this interaction but whatever. haha
Check out my Instagram and IGTV to see the videos that I took during the concert. I apologize for my screaming and the out of focus shaking footage. I tried my best to get some pictures but everything came out blurry.

I listened to the your playlist as reading this because A E S T H E T I C. lol
Their music is sooo catchy and the video clips you shared on insta look like the show was tons of fun.
Hopefully your bias feels better now. They all work so hard!

I'm so glad you finally got to a Kpop concert and Monsta X was such a great way to start I love them although I keep missing them, 2 years now they've been in both Thailand and the UK just before/after I've been travelling so I haven't been able to see them and when they came for KCON it was on a different day to when I was going. My friend in Australia saw them recently after I recommended them to her and she loved the concert so much, Kpop concerts are just something else, the atmosphere is so addictive compared to other concerts xoxo

Yay, I'm glad you like the songs! Hopefully, I've turned you into a Monbebe! haha
I wanted to see BlackPink too but most of the tickets sold out pretty fast too. *cries* ♥

OMG Cate, I had such a blast! It was a wonderful experience and can't wait to go to another K-pop concert. I took my younger sister who was a causal fan but after the concert ended she became a much bigger fan of Monsta X! haha
I hope you get to see them one day because they're so charming! I was upset that Wonho wasn't feeling well but health comes first! With that said, I need to see Monsta X again because I would like to see a shirtless Wonho in the flesh. hehe ♥
