I love looking through concert photos and finding gems like these.

I’m embarrassed to say, but five years ago, I made a quilted coat for Kihyun and sent it to Starship in the mail for the officially posted fan mail address at the time. I didn’t see any guidelines anywhere forbidding anything in particular ¯_(ツ)_/¯ have there been any fan mail guidelines posted anywhere??

Best case scenario: it’s in his closet somewhere and he wears at home

Also good scenario: it was gifted to a friend/family member/donated to a charity

If any one is curious what it looks like, I posted it here in the quilting subreddit!

Captured some instax photos from todays Seattle concert and handed them out as freebies 😊

I have been a fan for several years and want to increase my PC collection. Can anyone recommend accounts on Instagram that host GOs?

YouTube short by Kihyun.
Song; Abracadabra by Brown Eye Girls.

This is a random question but I am a pretty short individual and I was thinking if they came back to Canada about maybe going for the higher seats next time. I loved being by the stage but it was a struggle to get a lot of the shots I wanted and to see the members all the time.

Which ever concert you were at, did you think the view was still pretty good? Did people around you sit for most of the time and you could see better?

(Please don’t repost my photo, thank you~.)

Edit. Thank you everyone, while VIP was amazing for my ult group and finally seeing them after eight years, I think going forward I might do the balcony seats! Especially if I can’t be so close, I’m not even kidding I’m like woozi height lol.

My friend can’t go suddenly, let me know your bias! Preference goes to a monbebe that can’t afford a ticket!

I've been reminiscing and missing their show from when they were on the We Are Here tour and I know they had a recording of it hosted on V Live for the LA stop. I know it has been years since the show but does anyone have an archive or recording of the entire LA concert? I know youtube has some clips fans have posted but I was hoping the full show. Thank you :)

If anyone bought the Nexus Crewneck at the concert, do you know if the inside is the same really soft material as the sweatpants? I bought the sweatpants but skipped the Crewneck, but if the inside is the same really soft material I miiiiight get it online. Appreciate any comments below, thanks!

Fellow Monbebes, please be warned of concert ticket SCAMMERS 🚨

I found someone on X (@1Shannon_Denise) selling Ultimate VIP tickets for the SF concert for $200. She sent me screen recordings as proof, and me being naive, thought she is trustworthy 🤧

I asked to use PayPal G&S, but she insisted on using a PayPal QR code belonging to her “best friend.” The account initials didn’t match, so I didn't feel comfortable using. She then offered Zelle under the name Sherry Pelt, claimming Shannon is her nickname, and keep nagging me, so I ended up sending $100 as a deposit, planning to pay the rest after receiving the ticket. The payment initially was on hold, so she refuses to send the ticket, which at that point made sense. But her tone is such a red flag 🚩 that I decided to not buy from her entirely - I got scammed for another reason before, and my bank successfully suspended that payment, so I thought this would be the same.

But then my bank let the payment go through 🤦‍♀️ Such bummer, and of course she never sends me the ticket. Trusted her again (silly me) only for her to try to get more money lol, thankfully I still have a head above my neck this time.

Still claimed she doesn't get my money, and now she is posting to sell tickets AGAIN ‼️ So please please please be alert! Use regulated platforms guys!

Me being someone who was lagged behind fandom and concert culture for years, I was buying ticket last minutes after selling my own ticket as my work schedule changed literally the night before the concert, so I thought I can just get ticket off of a struggling fellow Monbebe. Apparently this was not the case 🥲

Hi all, this is pretty late, but I wanted to share my experience/review of the Monsta X Irving stop!!

----

Okay so I'd like to start with some context. I was really into MX from 2017-2019 ish. I was sooo into them. I saw them live in 2018 and 2019. They caught my eye in a way no other group did for me at that time. Then the whole wonho thing happened and it was pretty traumatic for me. I basically fell off from them (and kpop) for years bc life things.

Then mid 2025, I got back into kpop thanks to ateez and started keeping an eye on monsta x. I enjoyed their comebacks and less than casually kept up with them. I think maybe after the concert I am back to full time, but I am mainly a semi-monbebe 😅. I wanted to see them to check up on them haha

This concert was amazing. I cried (more on that later). It felt like coming home. I may have left the house but the door has always been open for my return. And god did I return.

Here are my thoughts!!!

----

Staging/Lighting/Screens

One of the main reasons I like kpop is because of the emphasis on performance/stage production. I am no professional, but a simple enjoyer. I love to highlight staging, lighting, sound and the efforts of the people behind the scenes. I really loved the red lighting on the guys. they looked phenomenal. It truly felt tailor made to them.

Screen Effects

The screen effects were my production MVP of the night. I was FLABBERGASTED by how freaking INCREDIBLE they were. I could see that so much love and attention was poured into these effects. Every single song's screen effects were incredible and perfectly suited it. I also noted the appropriately timed lyrics on screen that helped with singing along.(Like especially in this!) God it was all so good. I also loved how varied the colors were throughout the concert. I was hypnotized. I was particularly enamoured with the who do u love stage, the moving red and black effects resembled prison bars over laying the camera work. good lawd i was ON MY KNEES. Also middle of the night was so colorful and vibrant!!! I was in love. (religiously rewatching my short recording of it) Of the many concerts I have been to, I fear this one is the top contender for the best use of screens award (for me!)

VCR

The plot(?) of the vcrs was fun!! There was a lot of aura farming and i strongly appreciated it. I loved the moment when the light disappears taking them with it. I was also entranced by the vcr with the motorcycles circling them. I really wanna know how they filmed that. I also loved how everyone screamed when I.M. came on screen. The boosted bass pulsing through my body was a lovely experience.

Fan Interaction

The guys were so sweet. In the ments they teased each other and monbebe. There was a moment of them singing heal with us and then us singing for them and joohoney started beat boxing along. That felt so special and incredible. there was also: teasing minhyuk abt his forearms and him flexing them (and the subsequent zooming in 🙈), calling joohoney cute, asking monbebe who went to the 2017, the 2018 and so forth, joohoney playing crowd noise judge/guard, the call back chant of 'one for the m, two for the x" back and forth at forte and piano, and more. I love how they took the time during their ments to chat and play around.

Joohoney is my mvp here. He brought so much energy and was a wonderul mood maker.

They clearly have soo much love for texas; it's obvious they love coming here hehe🤠

The Guys

I feel like I already touched on it a bit in the previous section, but the guys were soo sweet and kind. They worked hard to deliver a solid 2.5+ hr concert. Just thinking abt seeing them with my own eyes makes me soo emotional!! Look at y'all!!! ahhhh AND THEY LOOKED SOO GOOD THE ENTIRE TIME MHMMMM!! STAGE PRESENCE CHARISMA EVERYTHING!!!

----

My Personal Crashouts

- They said okay now we will get sexy ooo but lowkey those songs were SAD SEXY to me 😭😭 and so instead i started TEARING UP bc at those moments the reality sets in that I'm seeing them. I'm out here wiping tears off my face while singing along

- I also did not know the setlist beforehand. I avoid all spoilers I can to be surprised and enjoy in the moment. SO WHEN THEY PLAYED TUSCAN LEATHER I WAS FALLING ON MA KNEES !!! I WAS SO EXCITED SINGING MY HEART OUT. and THIS! OHMYGODDDDD THIS WAS ONE OF MY FAV SONGSSSS FROM THE ALBUM AND I WAS LOSING MY SHITTT and also Oh My!!!! Like OMGGGGGGG

- I have to admit I i haven't really kept track of their solo releases bc life and i forget. I knew abt the shownu/hyungwon new release but didn't listen to it bc im stupid. ANYWAYS so shownu's solo??? like OH??? look at that silhouette like im sorry shownu T_T i was not aware of your level of GAME cause i CAUGHT MYSELF HUMMING HIS SONG WHILE WASHING DISHES. Plus hyungwon then their duo perf like ahhh and now i have the album on repeat!! Honestly this applies to all their solos haha kihyun's borderline ep is so good like ahhh

Sometimes all it takes is seeing it live!

- I was so sweaty and tired afterwards LOL. The venue was somewhat air conditioned but it regularly got stuffy and then suddenly the AC would kick in a little bit. I also developed a headache LOL and had to take acetaminophen in the middle of the concert.

----

Overall

I'm really happy I got to go to the concert. It's so lovely to see them doing well, I'm emotional! 🥹🥹 I look forward to keeping up with them.

I'm absolutely in love with the production quality and staging. I hope all the people who worked on it that their pillows are always nice and cold!!

----

misc.

- no confetti T_T I like to collect confetti when I can, and i still have two bags of confetti from the previous concerts hanging on my wall.

-while I'm partial to their earlier era music, the setlist was a good look into where they are now, so I'm not mad abt it!

If you are on the fence for seattle tmrw (10/24/26), go for it!!!!

Any leads? In search of 2 ultimate vip tickets!
