TL;DR: If this is available where you are, don’t hesitate, absolutely go and watch it.
Just finished watching the VR concert and wanted to share my experience. Long story short, I was blown away. I had little to no expectation going in. I’m sure I’m not the only one that watched the trailer and was underwhelmed with the goofy green screen effects. Frankly, I only watched it because I bombed hard on a test today and impulse bought tickets hoping to take my mind of it.
If any of you were put off by the trailer, rest assured the trailer did not do it justice. The actual VR experience was miles better than what the trailer depicted.
The members appear incredibly close, to the point where it genuinely feels like they’re right in front of you. At times it almost felt a little overwhelming (in a good way) because you can see so much detail in their expressions. If anything, I almost felt bad for them—it must be a bit strange being filmed from that close with such high-resolution cameras.
As expected, there’s also plenty of fan service. Plenty of shots where they get close and interact with the viewer. You also get to choose a bias and throughout the concert, there would be a few solo shots after performances.
Being able to freely move your head and control your perspective also adds a whole new layer. It made me appreciate the details of their choreography and outfits in a way I never have before. Seeing everything up close really highlights just how skilled and professional they are.
Overall, I enjoyed the concert way more than I expected to. The only thing that could be improved on would probably be the length. The whole concert is about 30 minutes ( I think 40 minutes max), and would surely leave many wanting for more. Still, this VR concert is, for lack of a better word, CRAZY.
PS. The visuals were incredible too. Yun Jin looked amazing in the varsity jacket, and Eunchae’s makeup paired perfectly with her leather jacket. Chaewon, Kazuha and Sakura were, of course, stunning as always.

It was a bit hard to handle the eye contact and sometimes I instinctively leaned back to give some space. It was really intense and fun. Just a little bit expensive and as you said short.
I almost wanna go back to pick a different member and see their fan service.
Do you wear prescription glasses?
Where can I watch
