The K-Pop Infinity performance was held in Partille and Stockholm over the weekend, described by organizers as a high-octane stage show with song and dance elite and cutting-edge visual effects. The touring show contains songs from the popular film 'K-Pop Demon Hunters' and covers of well-known songs by bands like BTS and Blackpink, with dance with military precision and cinematic lighting promised. Comments about lip-syncing, deeply disappointed children, school-level dancing, and accusations of fraud now fill the ticket company Eventim's Facebook page after the weekend's music event K-Pop Infinity.
André Wahlström paid 1400 kronor for tickets for himself and his six-year-old daughter and did not think the marketing matched expectations, with visitors now demanding their money back. André Wahlström is one of those who has contacted Eventim without receiving a response. Eventim refers to the Danish organizer Showbizz, which does not want to give an interview but responds via email that they are in dialogue with the English supplier and will contact all customers who have reached out.
The show was produced by an award-winning star from London's West End theatre district, with Göteborgs-Posten and Aftonbladet having previously reported on this. The performance has planned dates in Reykjavik, Oslo, and Zurich in the spring. It remains unclear how many visitors attended the K-Pop Infinity events in Partille and Stockholm, what specific promises in the marketing were not met according to visitors, and whether refunds will be issued to all dissatisfied customers, and if so, under what conditions.
Additionally, the identity of the award-winning West End star who produced the show and the response from the English supplier mentioned by Showbizz regarding the complaints are not publicly known.
