Best Kpop places to visit in Seoul if you are a Kpop fan
If you’re a K-pop fan, of course Korea is the place for you!
There are a lot of locations to visit and we will give you some suggestions:
1. K-pop Entertainment companies:
Each K-pop group is under a company. You probably already know the big ones like HYBE, YG and SM. All these companies are based in Seoul, so if you’re planning to go, it’s nice to pass by the entertainment companies to see where your favorite idols practice! Of course make sure to only pass by, since you’re not allowed to go into the buildings!
HYBE Entertainment:
Artists: BTS, Seventeen, ENHYPEN, New Jeans & more…
Location: 42 Hangang-daero, Hangangno 3 (sam)-ga, Yongsan-gu, Seoul
YG Entertainment:
Artists: BLACKPINK, Treasure, Big Bang, iKon & more…
Location: 7 Huiujeong-ro 1-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul
The SamE Cafe (by YG):
The SamE Cafe is right in front of the YG building. You can buy drinks, snacks, and also buy merchandise there. It is a great place to visit if you’re a fan of (one of) the YG artists!

2. K-star road:
The K-star road is a must visit if you’re a K-pop fan! There are “Gangnamdols” for multiple groups like BTS, Kara, EXO and much more. The Gangnamdols have a bear shape and each one has their own design. You can take pretty pictures with them and walk along the road. This road is also well known for the luxury shops and cafes.
Location: 407, Apgujeong-ro, Gangnam-gu, Seoul
3. Statue of Gangnam Style:
Of course everyone knows the famous song Gangnam Style by PSY! Also well known for the popular “horse dance”. In 2016 Gangnam Style got a big bronze statue. The shape of the statue is also the ‘’horse dance’’ pose. If you go stand in the middle of the statue, the song will start playing and then it’s your time to perform!
The Gangnam Style statue is also nearby the COEX Mall so you can go out for shopping too.
Location: 524 Bongeunsa-ro, Gangnam-gu, Seoul
4. K-pop Music Shows:

Pop-up stores:
After a comeback, K-pop webshops can announce a Pop-Up store, like Ktown4u did recently with Blackpink Jisoo’s solo album ‘’ME’’. You can go to the location and see it full of decorations and albums of the artist. Their music is playing and you can take a seat and drink while unboxing albums. Most of the fans are going because of the Lucky Draws which are exclusive photocards. For each album you buy, you can push a button and get a random photocard!
