Tickets for all 19 screenings of JYJ's documentary get sold out in an hour

Posted by jae.lea.jung1 pt Tuesday, February 21, 2012



Tickets for JYJ's documentary film, 'The Day', have sold out within just one hour of going on sale.

According to Lotte Cinemas, servers went down around 1:00 p.m. after 110,000 people rushed to purchase tickets for JYJ's documentary when sales windows opened. However, tickets for 'The Day' didn't go on sale until 4:00 p.m.

Regardless, all 19 different screenings for the film were sold out within the first hour. In Busan, tickets were sold out within the first five minutes, setting a new record.

A Lotte Cinema representative stated, "There were lines of Japanese fans waiting for tickets to go on sale since the early morning.  Most films with singers sell around 30% of the tickets within the first few hours, but this film sold out completely, surprising all the employees. JYJ are definitely Hallyu stars."

A representative from JYJ's side stated, "We set short dates for the screening of this film because it was set out just as a special service for fans. However, because of the high demand for tickets, we may extend the dates after further discussions with Lotte Cinema."

'The Day' is 90-minute film documenting the daily life of JYJ members Jaejoong, Yoochun, and Junsu.
