On October 17 KST, JYP Entertainment added four Southeast Asian stops to the schedule for ITZY's 1st world tour 'CHECKMATE.' According to the announcement, the members will be performing at Manila's SM Mall of Asia Arena on January 14, Singapore's Star Theatre on January 28, Jakarta's Tennis Indoor Senayan on February 4, and Bangkok's Thunder Dome on April 8.

it seems the "Star Theatre" is a popular venue for mostly girl groups/female idols since there is NO STANDING PIT, and the whole venue is like a musical theatre with seats in 2nd and 3rd floor, and better sound system and the artiste is closer to the whole fans, as opposed to a "open air" stadium where only the premium standing pit will be close.
even though the capacity is smaller, i think so far for kpop only SNSD performed in a larger venue like Singapore indoor stadium, while RV, IU, TWICE, ITZY did it at Star Theatre, Taeyeon had hers at EXPO (which i feel was a terrible venue since the back row is often blocked when the front row audience stand up irresponsible)
Cant wait for the ticketing details.. i heard Ailee is starting her concert dates in November, i hope she will also do a Asia tour and drop by Singapore too..
