[3][4] On April 13, 2012, T-ara was supposed to hold a concert in the United States with Davichi and Yangpa, titled "Power & Beauty in San Francisco".
Marketed as the "first major K-pop concert in Northern California", and with around 8,000 tickets sold, it was officially announced sold-out by the organizing agency Namu Entertainment with a possibility of adding additional seats.
Core Contents Media announced that the concert was sold-out with over 6,000 tickets sold for Korean fans only, as the agency refused T-ara's Japanese and Chinese fanclubs' requests for additional 4,000 seats.
Fans expressed their disapproval of the company's actions towards the members and the loss of their already paid-tickets by protesting in front the venue the day of the event.
