While the announcements were planned to fuel the excitement, fans expressed discontent with the schedule. Some CARATs pointed out that the cities for SEVENTEEN’s U.S. leg were only a few and that it overlooked several locations in the South.

seventeen are objectively one of the biggest groups under hybe/pledis and you offer FIVE u.s. tour dates, three of them being in one state? please add more tour dates especially in the south https://t.co/7QPepD0NRa

This is such poor planning… seventeen are stadium-worthy. It’s gonna be a bloodbath…

What is this horrible lineup? I really wanted to go and yet the only east coast date is in New York? No Philly, DC, Atlanta, Boston, etc???? This tour seems poorly planned…. Guess I can’t go

Side-eyeing Pledis/Hybe so hard right now… what a poorly planned “world” tour. I'm super glad I saw them last year so I'm okay with missing this tour. Seventeen and Carats deserve better! https://t.co/LubziPK37e

Moreover, some fans were frustrated that most of the U.S. concerts will be held on weekdays.
