Yasmien Kurdi documents fangirl journey in scoring BLACKPINK concert tickets
Yasmien Kurdi is one of the lucky BLINKs who was able to score tickets to BLACKPINK’s 2023 concert at the Philippine Arena — but not before experiencing quite the, well, emotional journey of it all.
In a series of tweets, the “Start-Up PH” actress shared some snaps of her fangirling journey.
First, Yasmien tried purchasing online, but there was a high demand despite lining up early.
"Nag-alarm talaga ako para pumila [pero] hanggang ngayon wala pa rin. Anong oras ba talaga nagsimula ang pila?" She asked in a tweet that belied every BLINK's confusion. It was time stamped at 2:41pm on Saturday, November 19.

That's a total of two hours and 20 minutes of physically lining up — or two days, if you'll consider her Saturday online confusion. What a fan, indeed.
