Enthusiasm for South Korean boy band 2PM reached epic proportions on Saturday when 3,000 pre-sale tickets for the band's upcoming concert in Jakarta were bought up within hours of being made available.

The 1,000 pre-sale tickets for sale online all sold out within 15 minutes, while 2,000 tickets for sale in UOB Plaza, Thamrin city, sold out between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m.

“Both online and offline tickets sold out today,” Peter Harjani from Marygops Studios, the prompter of the 2PM’s Jakarta concert, told The Jakarta Post on Saturday.

2PM, a group consisting of Junsu, Nichkhun, Taecyon, Wooyoung, Junho and Chansung, will perform in their first full concert in Jakarta on Nov. 11 as part of their Hands Up Asia Tour.

They previously performed briefly in the Blackberry Live and Rockin’ Concert in March this year.

According to Peter, more tickets will go on sale on Monday or Tuesday next week. “The tickets will be sold online,” he said, adding that the promoter was preparing 5,000 tickets in total, with prices ranging from Rp 500,000 (US$57.00) to Rp 2 million.
