Lotte Concert Hall in Seoul is a notable venue, especially for classical music and orchestras, with its unique vineyard-style seating arrangement. Audiences frequently discuss seating options, including the P section, to optimize their concert experience.
The Lotte Concert Hall, situated on the 8th floor of Lotte World Mall, features a 360-degree stage surrounded by audience seating. The P section, referred to as the chorus seating (합창석), is located behind the performers, providing a direct view of the conductor. This hall, opened in 2016, was engineered with a "BOX-in-BOX" structure, using a double concrete system on rubber pads to isolate it from external vibrations from the surrounding mall and subway.
Bloggers suggest that the P section offers a unique sound experience, which can be quite impactful, even if the balance differs from central seats. They recommend reviewing seating charts before purchasing tickets due to variations in acoustics and sightlines across sections. For some, like those attending a non-classical concert, the LP section (a type of P section) was chosen for its proximity to the stage and cost-effectiveness.
