Damn, I'll be out of the country on vacation then.

If you are thinking of going, I strongly suggest you do so. I've seen them on three separate occasions and all were mind boggling.

I literally walked out of those shows and felt like reality had been completely suspended for a couple of hours each time.

Hmmm, they are Chinese acrobats, well some of them anyway. That's the beauty of the Cirque du Soleil organization, they get the best performers from all over the world. The price is pretty much on par with other large scale events/performances in Seoul.

In my opinion it's definitely worth it.

You'll be aiming for 200,000 then. It's in Jamsil Olympic Stadium, as in soooooooooooo crowded and you will have to pay the most to get up front. I already heard of course, the 55,000 seats suck! They are far right and far left. I once saw that dream concert there that many of the famous Korean singers/bands do for charity every year. My seat was OK, but it was FREE!!! Key word: FREE...not 200,000. I really would like to see this though. You have until June 3rd. It's not like you have to run out now and buy tickets. If you wait there will be less crowds.

look closely at the 200,000won tickets. They are special VIP. You get an excellent seat, a souviegn program, a cd of the shows music. At intermission you get to go to the special VIP area and enjoy free food and wine. not so bad...though still pricy

Heh. I paid about $200 for the Cirque production of The Beatles: Love in Las Vegas.

Well worth it.

Good luck figuring out that horrendous website, too. It doesn't give enough info about buying the tickets, such as if you can buy them in person or not. We don't all have a visa card. Rolling Eyes

I saw that last year in Las Vegas.
One of Casinoes sent me 2 free tickets, so went to see with my friend, it was OK, I am not so crazy for that...
