Pop sensation Lady Gaga has arrived in South Korea ahead of her first Born This Way Ball tour date and has shared several photos with her fans of the venue and an exclusive merchandise item.

The 'Marry The Night' superstar took to social networking site both last night (April 21) and this morning (April 22) and revealed her excitement at the impending string of live shows by sharing a personal picture of herself at Seoul's Olympic Stadium, where she will debut her new show on April 27, and a snapshot of a tour souvenir:

Gaga wrote: "I will perform the tour of your life if it f*cking kills me. #BTWBallTourRehearsal. Imagine when it's full. I love that it's raining, so NEW YORK of you Korea!"

Before this tweet, to which she attached a photo of herself "freaking out" at the sheer magnitude of the empty stadium, she teased one of the items - namely 'meat bandages' (pictured top left) - that will be on sale at every date of the tour:

"Monsters want to see one merch item from the Tour? Its 1 of the small cute ones, but I'm up late+there's no one around to stop me :) #teehee Just in case you fall and scrape your monster knee! I'll be there :) l love you, you bandage me up when I need it! Xox"
