BTS' Jin is earning widespread praise for offering affordable and fixed ticket prices for his upcoming solo fan concert series, RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR. The pricing decision comes amid ongoing discussions in the music industry regarding the use of dynamic pricing, a model that adjusts ticket prices based on demand, often leading to inflated costs for fans.

Ticketmaster has now verified that BTS' Jin's event is adopting "All-In Pricing," which shows the entire ticket price in advance, including fees, but not taxes. Notably, dynamic pricing will not be applied, meaning ticket prices will remain consistent regardless of demand spikes.

Fans have turned to social media to praise Jin for his move. Several have noted the importance of having accessibility in a live music space increasingly dominated by commercial approaches.

The price accessibility of the tickets has caused supporters to say Jin is raising the bar, particularly as top artists and platforms tend to adopt dynamic pricing models. One BTS' Jin fan commented:

"A certain membs fb upset that Jin limited dynamic pricing just highlights the fact that he is just a cut above everyone else Jins act of love has always been about giving back, whether it is to the community or to fans & he has always been vocal about this. He IS the standard."

"Jin refused dynamic pricing for Run Seokjin EP Tour which means the tickets are at fixed fair value regardless of high demand which generally causes inflation in prices. Refusing commercial dynamics of industry which are so normalised, Jin isn't just Superstar but Superhero too" writes one netizen.
"So apparently Jin made sure his concert tickets will be at affordable price...that's him..KIM SEOKJIN" says an X user.

"Dynamic pricing is done with the consent of the artist, but it seems like Seokjin didn't agree to dynamic pricing for this concert ticket? As expected, Seokjin!! I didn't expect to get the VIP package at this price Thank you Seokjin" shares one more fan.

Praising the vocalist's long-standing history of prioritizing fans—whether through free content or accessible events—many highlighted how his latest decision reflects his genuine care.

BTS’ Jin's move has also been compared to British band Coldplay, who have also resisted dynamic pricing on their concert tours to ensure tickets remain affordable for supporters.

"Ticket Master’s notice on Jin’s tour ticket price: This event is using All-In Pricing.That means you'll see the cost of the ticket up front, including fees (before taxes). And this is Coldplay : Coldplay has taken a stand against dynamic pricing, ensuring that fans can purchase tickets at a set price, regardless of demand.The beautiful friendship between these two artists with integrity who love, support, and respect each other is not coincidental or random, and it’s just so precious in today’s music industry" mentions a BTS’ Jin fan.

"Jin and Coldplay are truly birds of a feather. They have hearts of gold, standing up for their fans which is so rare and so beautiful" adds one X user.
