Olympic Gymnastics Arena, also known as KSPO Dome, is one of the largest indoor concert venues -- an impressive location for a group to hold its first gig.

In a teaser video released by YG Entertainment on Wednesday morning, several clips from videos for Black Pink’s hit singles are shown including “Whistle,” “Playing with Fire” and “Ddu-du Ddu-du.”

The video starts with the line “In Your Area” and ends with the message “See You Soon in Seoul.”

Members of the group are believed to have brainstormed ideas for their first Seoul gig, as the title for the concert was their idea.

Advanced ticket sales begin for fan club members on Friday, while general sales open Tuesday.
