By Lee Suh-yoon
Servers temporarily went down on Monday as online ticketing opened for K-pop star Psy's "Summer Swag" concert.
Ticketing opened at noon, attracting more than 200,000 people to the site. Fans waited at their computers for more than an hour for ticket confirmations finally to pop up.
Fans at the concerts, titled the "Soaking Wet Show," in Korean, will be showered with 160 tons of water during the performances.
"The dress code is blue, be prepared to be soaked through," reads the concert description on Interpark, an online ticketing platform. "Psy will also provide a raincoat and plastic backpack for each guest so they can fully enjoy the show."
The concert will play in six cities, starting with Busan on July 21. Other cities include Seoul, Gwangju and Daegu.
Although this is Psy's fourth "Summer Swag" concert, it is his first live show since leaving his longtime agency YG Entertainment.
