The report also highlighted another significant accomplishment of BLACKPINK: their concert at the National Stadium in Singapore, a part of their “BORN PINK” tour, set records with a staggering gross of $9.226 million, becoming the highest grossing Asian concert of all-time. With an attendance of 97,977 spectators over 2 nights, filling 100% of the stadium's capacity, they eclipsed BTS's previous record at the same venue during their Love: Speak Yourself Tour in 2018, which drew 39,946 attendees for 1 night.
