Meanwhile, another fan account, @badingkaylea, shared a video showing Lea patiently waiting outside the Busan Asiad Main Stadium alongside fellow concertgoers.
On Threads, user @sj.bees also praised Lea for being down-to-earth, noting that she had “no staff with her” while waiting to enter the concert venue.
“She’s very nice and accommodating,” the user wrote. “Yes, nasa general seating kami.”
“Kung kaya ng isang The Lea Salonga bumardagul para sa legal na ticketing, maarawan habang naghihintay sa pila, ipagtabuyan ng staff dahil sa magulong proseso ng pagpasok, bakit di kaya ng iba?” she added.
Following the concert, Lea shared on Instagram that she has “plenty to unpack,” alongside a photo of her BTS light stick.
Lea has long been an ARMY. In 2021, she proudly showed off her BTS 2021 Winter Package merchandise.
BTS kicked off their world tour in April, following the release of their comeback album “Arirang” in March.
The group will head to the Philippine Sports Stadium in Bulacan for the Philippine stop of their “Arirang” world tour on March 13 and 14, 2027. —Hermes Joy Tunac/JCB, GMA News
