Big Bang’s recent Nagoya concert causes chaos in a Japanese subway.

Big Bang kicked off their ‘2012 Alive Tour’ in Japan on May 17 at the Gaishi Hall in Nagoya, Japan. On the 2nd day of their concert, service at Kasadera station was temporarily halted due to worries that large crowd would come in due to Big Bang’s concert. However, the train operator forgot to check on the station status, and passed by Kasadera when service continued. Ultimately, 800 people missed their ride.

JR Tokai explained, “We expected chaos around Kasadera station where Big Bang’s concert is held and set a plan to make a temporary stop at the Station. However when driver left Kamagori Station he didn't check new stop to make, and eventually he passed by Kasadera station.”

Big Bang’s concert tour will be covering Nagoya, Yokohama, Osaka, Saitama, Fukuoka, and more. Originally, the tour was planned to cover 10 concerts in 5 cities, however 3 concerts were added due to overflowing of 1 million applications to reserve tickets. Another 2 concerts were added after all tickets were sold out immediately.
