Recently, Psy announced that he would be giving out 30,000 free copies of his album if his concert manages to completely sell out. Considering that each album costs about $8, he’ll be giving out $240,000 USD worth of CDs to the audience. The album he’ll be giving out is slated for release mid-July so it’s chock full of new songs that nobody has heard of yet. Representatives expressed, “Psy wanted to give a present to people willing to come out and have fun instead of letting the summer heat get to them. Last year, he sold out 25,000 seats so we’re looking forward to similar results this year. Psy will purchase the albums himself and pass them out on the day of the concert at the hall.” The concert will be held on August 11th. Source + Photos: Joongang via Naver
