‘I am numb': Blackpink fans left devastated as Hong Kong concerts sell out fast
Tickets for K-pop sensation Blackpink's concerts in Hong Kong sold out in a little more than an hour and a half of going on general sale, leaving many fans disappointed. Advertisement A Post reporter visited the ticket booking platform Cityline when sales opened on Friday at 11am. However, by noon, the wait time on the loading page, of more than an hour, had not shortened, while only limited tickets remained. By around 12.40pm all tickets for the two scheduled shows at Kai Tak Stadium on January 24 and 25 next year, were sold out. The Post also observed around a dozen people attempting to secure tickets at an internet cafe in Causeway Bay, representing about half of the customers present. Many arrived as early as an hour before the 11am sale began to secure a computer and were utilising multiple browser tabs. Some fans also used other personal devices, such as tablets and mobile phones. All of them told the Post that they believed the internet access at the cafe was superior, potentially offering a better chance of joining the queue sooner. Advertisement The hourly rate for computer rentals, typically used for gaming, was HK$16 (US$2) at the cafe. The Post was unable to confirm any successful purchases from the group of fans, with most leaving the venue around noon.

How sustainable wood furniture maker in Hong Kong turns fallen trees into unique pieces
At the inaugural exhibition of the Tzu Chi Environmental Action Centre in Hong Kong's Tai Wai neighbourhood in 2021, one particular installation stood out: a school of more than 100 suspended sharks made from wood that had been entirely salvaged. It was an effective and subtle way to convey the message from its creator, Lam Che, that trees and sea creatures share space with those who use and discard them with little thought. Lam, who is in his mid-60s, began salvaging fallen trees and construction waste in 2003, repurposing them in his Kwun Tong studio. He predominantly collects fallen camphor trees and old Thai teak that was once popular in colonial home furnishings. As Hong Kong enters its typhoon season, Lam is about to get busy again. Lam stands with his installation of more than 100 sharks made from salvaged wood at the Tzu Chi Environmental Action Centre in Tai Wai. Photo: K.Y. Cheng Fallen trees are packed with moisture and require two to three years to dry out enough to sculpt into art and furniture pieces. Lam makes mostly stools and tabletop accessories such as radio and jewellery cabinets.
