Yeah I just brought it , kinda keep rethinking about should I or shouldn't I. But I just brought it , VIP tickets . .

Guest POrsche12212 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Does anyone know if there will be VIP tickets in the General Public sale?? Or was that just for the Wonder Girls Presale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xvampireknight Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 (reposting) I read the meet and greet was from 1-2PM somewhere.. but I bought the ticket for a Friday, which means I'm still im school from 1-2PM.... Can someone confirm that the LA meet and greet is after 2 PM?! A few months ago one of the JYPE staff emailed me letting me know I'm a WG fan*tastic. Today, I tried to email that account and other JYPE email adress but it doesn't work :\ gah, can someone who's going to the LA concert (or any concert on a weekday) with VIP pass confirm this? and I agree, someone should call JYP with the questions we have listed xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shantewillie Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 The meet and greet is going to be 1pm to 2pm. I wonder does that affect the show in Dallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can someone confirm that the LA meet and greet is after 2 PM?! That's for the S.F. show. It starts at 3pm. On LiveNation's info section, the meet and greet is from 1-2pm. Best is to wait for confirmation of the meet & greet. Could be before or after the show. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rhonda21 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hey guys, I was wondering why you aren't using THIS thread instead to talk about the tour. Just thought it would be better so people who aren't going to the tour but still want updates on the WG or for people who just want info on the tour could find things easier. But yeah the SF one says: Wonder Girls with special guest 2PM. VIP tickets include Meet & Greet with Wonder Girls and 2PM, photo opportunity, and a tour gift. Meet and Greet will be on day of show from 1:00 - 2:00 pm. The SF one starts at 3 it says. But like the Houston one is at 8 so maybe that meet & greet won't be so early.

Guest Liusyaoran Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hi, question for the people going to the NYC concert, are the $150 considered VIP? Is there a set time for the meet and greet in NYC and is that also when the photo op is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest qoxie Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 and i was wondering for their tour... is it meant for old wonder girls fans? The venue sizes (1K-3K), tour guests (JYP family) & concert promoter (LiveNation) suggest this is likely to be a K-pop tour, i.e. for converted fans. Of course WG will have an American album out too but, looking at the hectic schedule (a new city almost every day), I can't see how they can find time to meet the city media to promote it at all. With the album supposedly in EP format (mini-album), I wonder if they've changed tack with the intended 12-track set as well. The Wonder Girls Trilogy EP contained 9 songs, but 5 of them were remixes. I think WG will try re-engaging the Jobros crowd later in the summer (i.e. post-June). Then add an Asian tour leg down the line? EPs are also a market anomaly in America so, who knows, WG may yet re-release the album with extra tracks (logically all the 6 English originals, as intended) before promoting it proper. In the meanwhile, this June tour repertoire should have more Korean songs (except possibly the 6 remakes). - - - - - - - hey my ex coworker just invited me to Wonder Girls concert in June. They're playing in NYC. I have a question. Are they worth seeing would you know? I have been to concerts before and I am curious on how they preform. The NYC gig is the same venue (Hammerstein Ballroom) as when WG performed as part the 2009 JYP Tour. Look up the fancams at YT. Don't expect the stage sets to be as grand as for the 1st Wonder concerts. - - - - - - - Todaykorea.co.kr summary of WG's upcoming activities (Google-translated): http://translate.google.com/translate?u=ht...1&ie=EUC-KR No new info added, though. - - - - - - - Canada Still Wants Nobody but You! April 7, 2010 With the announcement of Wonder Girls’ comeback in May and their Wonder World Tour kicking off in June, it looks like the time has come to move away from ‘Nobody’ era, but are we all ready to move on? Apparently not, since ‘Nobody’ is still a hot hit in various countries including Canada! A month ago we wrote about Wonder Girls’ Nobody hitting Canada. By the time Wonder Girls’ fans discovered that Nobody was charting, the song had already been on Nielsen SoundScan Canada Singles Chart for 4 weeks with #4 being its highest rank. After that, fans took a look at the website that provides the charts and Nobody seemed to have suddenly disappeared but guest what… Wonder Girls are still hanging in there and still in the top 10 best selling singles! April 1st chart shows that Wonder Girls have been on the chart for 8 weeks already, ranking #7 dropping one position since last week. The English version of Nobody will have its first year anniversary on June 26th while the Korean version will be 2 years old in September. Recently special albums for Taiwan, Hong Kong and China have been released with Chinese versions of Tell Me, So Hot and Nobody. These special albums, together with the Chinese version of Nobody, have taken these countries charts by storm. With the upcoming tour and new song, which will be released at the same time in 3 different languages, we can only hope for Wonder Girls popularity to keep on growing. Remember this is said to be a WORLD tour, at the moment only the first 9 concerts have been announced across USA, but more dates are still to be added, possibly including stops in other countries. Canada played a big part on the extension of Wonder Girls participation on the Jonas Brothers Tour so hopefully at least one of those future dates will be in Canada. In the meantime, pre-sale tickets for the US leg of the tour have ended already but all will go on public sale this Friday. While the anticipation for Wonder Girls keeps growing and growing, if you live in the US, go buy some tickets at Live Nation or Ticket Master and… Live the Wonder! Source: jam.canoe.ca Credit: Kpoplive - - - - - - - Wonder Girls to take second crack at US market By Song Woong-ki One of Korea's top girl bands, the Wonder Girls, is set to drop their latest album worldwide in May before they embark on a U.S. tour, JYP Entertainment said Monday. Their second studio album will hit store shelves on May 15 with its first single and music video released in Korean, English and Chinese, JYPE told The Korea Herald. The five-member pop R&B group will set forth on their U.S. tour following the release of the album in June. However, a spokeswoman with JYP remained mum about the specifics of what fans could expect from the new album. A more substantial and detailed itinerary will be organized at a later date as the band is still in the studio recording songs for the new album, according to Han Soo-jung, a PR spokeswoman with the entertainment company. In a recent press statement, JYPE said: "We hope the new album will help them consolidate their position in the U.S. market." Since 2009, Park Jin-young, the founder and CEO of the group's management company has aggressively pushed for the group's North American debut. The Wonder Girls' first exposure to an American audience came when they were chosen as the opening act for the Jonas Brothers' stateside tour last year. Although their English language version of "Nobody" cracked the top 100 at 76th on the Billboard Hot 100 last October, they have failed to make much of an impact overseas. Earlier this year, the group was rocked by the announcement of one of its members, Sunmi, parting ways with the band. Fans have not reacted positively toward new recruit Hye Lim who was a JYPE trainee before Sunmi's departure. Since their debut in Korea three years ago, the group has snagged three consecutive number one hit singles here with "Tell Me", "So Hot" and "Nobody."

Guest bubblestars Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I WROTE THIS WHEN I WAS IN CLASS TODAY BUT I COULDN'T POST IT UP SO I'm POSTING IT NOW.. I think the public onsale just got pushed back or is it me? Public Onsale 4/9 at 10:00 a.m. PDT Originally it said it was on sale on the 7th right??? which was today. So i guess for those who did not get a VIP ticket will have to wait longer that is IF they actually reserved some tickets for the public (the page keeps saying the ticket cannot be found). I personally do not want to spend that much money on their ticket because i feel like it would be a waste of money. I have a feeling like some people might not be able to take pictures with them and stuff or something and the meet and greet is only an hour which means you MIGHT not get that much attention from the girls. i honestly want to take a picture with 2PM more than the girls but don't get me wrong i LOVE them. So yeah I just can't risk spending that kind of money when I'm not sure if things will go smoothly. I basicially want the VIP ticket for the photo and if they run out of time i feel like the ones who didn't take a picture with them wont get a chance. BUT YEAH TELL ME ALL ABOUT THE VIP STUFF, ESP THOSE WHO ARE GOInG TO SF!!!!!! it hella sucks because ticket sales are on the week of my prom which means im already spending alot of money -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest qoxie Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Wonder Girls wraps up music video shoot for new album Article Date: 2010.04.08 17:42 Last Modified: 2010.04.08 17:42 K-pop princesses Wonder Girls have finished shooting the music videos for their U.S. debut album in Korea, according to their agency on Thursday. "The girls shot their music videos for two days till yesterday in the Gyeonggi Province," a representative from JYP Entertainment explained, adding they will return to the U.S. next week to finish preparing for their album. Their new album, to contain their title track recorded in three languages including English, Chinese and Korean, will be unveiled worldwide on May 16. Their music videos were also produced in each language, the first time in the world for such an attempt to be made. On the day of the album's release, the girls are set to hold a launching party which will air live on online service provider Ustream, followed by a live-chatting session with their fans from all over the world and a live performance by the girls. Wonder Girls made a splash into the music industry in 2007, quickly becoming one of the biggest pop acts in the country with numerous hit singles. They are also the most successful group to have made a crossover to the U.S., chosen as the opening act for popular boy band The Jonas Brothers and appearing in radio and television shows last year. The girls continued to celebrate their success, becoming the first Korean artists in Billboard history to enter the Hot100 chart with their U.S. single “Nobody” debuting at No. 76. However, the quintet --composed of Sohee, Yubin, Sun, Yenny and Mimi-- suffered a setback to kick off their singing career in the U.S. full scale when original member Mimi decided to leave the group to pursue her studies. She was replaced with new member Lim in March.

They also made it into the Billboard Hot 100 Singles and ‘Nobody’ even become the best selling single of the year. But how did JYPE fair with the expenses of Wonder Girls’ American debut? On April 6th it was reported by the Financial Supervisory Service that JYP USA’s audit report showed they had a net loss of $4,833,000 with their sales stopping at $100,075. The cost of promotions in America, together with the currency change and the worldwide economic slump were the reasons given for this deficit. The question is, how will JYP deal with this situation? Using his hidden card… Wonder Girls are currently scheduled to release a new song on May 15th with an album release party in Los Angeles, California. They will also embark on a world tour in June, starting with 9 concerts across the US. The Wonder World Tour will be their first solo tour in the US. With this hit or miss large-scale project, JYPE hopes to be saved from their financial problems. If successful, the estimated gain from the tour will be 10 times bigger than what they earned in 2009. Wonder Girls left Korea at the peak of their career and risked all to enter the US market. Fans are more excited than ever with their soon worldwide comeback which hopefully will take the girls to the top once again. The new Wonder Girls’ Era is close, are you guys ready to witness it?!

A Fan*tastic is part of WG's street team/crew (on tour dates). It's a common subterranean DIY initiative in America, in which fan volunteers help promote an aspiring band/artiste, usually by distributing flyers. Free labor in return for fandom fulfillment, to put it one way.
