Black Pink's World Tour 'Deadline'Deadline' was held at the main stadium of Goyang Stadium in Gyeonggi-do from the 5th to the 6th. The performance was a full-length performance by Black Pink in a year and 10 months, with about 78,000 spectators gathered to fill the auditorium.

However, after the performance, some audiences complained that they could not see the stage at all because of the large screen structure and console equipment. In particular, the auditorium was sold at the normal price (B seat, 132,000 won) rather than the viewing limit (99,000 won). As the controversy grew, leading to a demand for a refund, YG Entertainment released an apology and promised to take follow-up measures.
