Hello,
My friend and I are travelling to Seoul from Japan this month to try and watch the Seoul vs ManU match on July the 20th. Does anyone know if it is possible to get any tickets? Do they have many ticket touts in Seoul?
Thanks for the help,
Gareth

i want two tickets as well...preferably free ones....

good luck getting tickets.

i think they've already gone on sale and are sold out.

koreans are manchester united crazy. even though park ji sung isn't playing, the game will sell out.

honestly, i think you've got very few chances of getting tickets this late ... unless you rock up at the stadium and hope for a few scalpers.

I've never pre-bought a ticket for a game, there are normally scalpers outside that sell them for the original price (don't ask me how they make a profit).

The only time this hasn't worked is when I went to Suwon v Chelsea, when I got in for free using my waegook card.

Hey,

When's the game? I'll be there to buy the tickets off the scalpers.

I know it's late but am just hoping there will be touts/scalpers outside the stadium...is that usually the case in Korea?
Also, anyone know of anything interesting happening/good place to go in Seoul on the long weekend of July 20th-23rd?
Thanks in advance

Tickets are selling for at least 3 times face value. To sit on the first level you should look too spend 150 per seat. To get a decent view, you need to look at spending 250-400 per seat. This isn't your "ordinary" Korean game. Tickets sold out in six hours after they went on sale.
