Tran Sy Thanh, chairman of the Hanoi People’s Committee, has sent a thank-you letter to K-pop girl group BlackPink for a two-night concert at My Dinh National Stadium on Saturday and Sunday.

The success of the concert, which attracted some 60,000 spectators, demonstrated Hanoi’s image and position as a peaceful city, and a safe and friendly destination, Thanh said in the letter sent on Monday.

Through the four-member band’s concert, Hanoi showed its ability to organize international music and cultural events.

On behalf of the municipal People’s Committee, chairman Thanh expressed gratitude to the world-famous K-pop girl group for their catchy performances, amazing Vietnamese spectators, as well as local and international tourists during the two-night concert.

Besides, the Hanoi leader thanked concert-goers for their enthusiastic participation in the event, significantly contributing to the success of the concert.

He also sent his gratitude to competent forces for guaranteeing the safety of the foreign artists and spectators, as well as the security before and during the concert.

Thanh added that Hanoi expects to hold more similar large-scale events to strengthen the cultural and entertainment industry, cementing its position as a modern and civilized capital city.

BlackPink’s concert in Hanoi was part of the group’s Born Pink World Tour, their second worldwide concert tour to promote their second album ‘Born Pink.’

The tour began on October 15 last year in Seoul and is scheduled to conclude on August 26 this year.

The girl group will tour 64 sites worldwide, earning an estimated US$163 million.
