Persona in Taiwan : 80% of tix sold in 3 days

Saw this wonderful news posted by feissy on Quiante501. Thanks feissy.

It's really amazing how the Taiwanese fans are craving for SS501 in their country. I'm pretty sure SS501 is happy to hear this news.

From the article below it says that 80% of the tickest were already sold and there is still the online selling which will happen on Septebmer 16. With this overwhelming response, I wonder if all fans can be accommodated in Taipei Arena. I wonder too if DSP is considering of a possible 2-night concert. Not a bad idea, right? Fans can still save. The concert is slated to happen on Oct 17 and that is 37 more days to go.

Btw, for each ticket sold, a 100 TWD will be donated for a good cause.
