From Food To Entertainment: What You Need To Host The Ultimate K-pop Viewing Party
Prep All The Delicious Food For Long Hours Of Binging
First things first: you'll need food – because how else will you stay fueled to dance, sing and laugh all night long? Of course, for a K-pop party, you'll need Korean food and snacks. Most supermarkets should carry a few Korean snacks and drinks for you to choose from.
If you want something heavier, then you have the option of making the classic and ever-reliable instant noodle. If you want a recommendation, try the new Samyang MEP Ramyeon in Black Pepper Beef or Grilled Garlic Shrimp! These noodles provide the perfect balance of heat and flavour, and are available at 7-Eleven stores nationwide!
Have A Variety Of Entertainment Options On Hand
Concert films are fun and help keep the energy up, but to ensure a well-rounded viewing party, you'll need more options. Besides the usual concert films, include music videos and variety shows as fillers for when you're taking a break from all the singing and dancing.
We suggest variety shows from K-pop stars, like 'Run BTS' and 'Going Seventeen'. As for music videos, that's up to you to choose – whether your favourite ones or new releases. Better yet, include lyric videos to turn the viewing party into a karaoke party!
Deck The Place – And Yourself – Out In Comfy Yet Stylish Gear
To have the best time, you should prioritise comfort – but we're not sacrificing style. Thankfully, you can now find cute yet comfy outfits that allow you to move around easily and still look good for your pictures!
As for room decor, why not grab a couple of plushies of your favourite K-pop group's mascots? BT21 has a bunch to choose from and they all look super comfy! You can also use your bias groups' official colours as a base theme to match everything else.
With everything set and ready to go, we hope you have a fun and engaging K-pop viewing party!

Gripping new Korean drama 'The Defects' that tackles a modern-day illegal adoption ring makes its way to Tonton
"The Defects," a new ENA drama based on the Kakao Webtoon of the same name, which has already recorded over 51 million views, is an action thriller depicting the desperate survival and revenge of children who were abandoned by their adoptive parents and barely survived at the brink of death. The dark and gripping new Korean drama that tackles a modern-day illegal adoption ring started airing on Tuesday (July 21) on Tonton. Starring talented actors such as Yum Jung-ah, Won Jina, Choi Young Jun and Kim Jin Young (DEX), this series promises a storyline full of drama, conflict, and questions that challenge human instincts. The drama's premise, an illegal adoption cartel where adoptive parents can buy children and even request refunds if not satisfied, already sparked buzz for its provocative subject matter. For the record, more than 140,000 children had been sent overseas by Seoul following the devastating 1950-53 Korean War. The drama also comes in for fans when the South Korean government announced recently that the country is set to end the decades-old practice of outsourcing adoptions to private agencies, after a damaging investigation concluded the country's government-endorsed foreign adoption programme violated the fundamental human rights of adoptees. South Korea will now introduce a 'newly restructured public adoption system, under which the state and local governments take full responsibility for the entire adoption process', South Korea's Ministry of Health and Welfare said. As for "The Defects", the series is an action thriller drama that tells the story of a group of children who are illegally purchased by their adoptive parents, and then trapped in the dark world of human trafficking. Behind this world, there is Kim Se-Hee (played by Yum Jung-ah), a renowned doctor and high-profile hospital director who also heads an illegal adoption syndicate run by Jung Hyeon (played by Kim Jin Young). The organisation offers a "guaranteed return," a cruel system that can eliminate these children simply because they do not meet the expectations of their adoptive parents. Then comes Kim A-Hyeon (played by Won Jina), one of the survivors who managed to escape. Now, she rises to lead other children to reclaim their persecuted future and avenge the betrayal of the past that continues to haunt them. This brave story is lifted from a popular webtoon that once sparked a phenomenon, with the original work receiving international recognition through the "Best Creative Award" in the Webtoon category at the International Content Market SPP 2017, an achievement that proves the strength of the narrative and the message it carries. "The Defects" also marks Kim Jin Young, better known as DEX's return to acting, and this time in a suspenseful thriller full of dark secrets. The actor, who is also a former special forces soldier and reality show star, DEX continues to expand his artistic talents, and his appearance this time is certainly highly anticipated. In a recent interview in Seoul, DEX said: "I like to focus intensely when I work, and the appealing part about acting is being able to deeply explore and lead a character," he said. "I approached it with a sense of guilt, wondering if I would be a flaw [among the cast]. I pulled out everything I could to work on this project." "The Defect" is an eight-episode show and for more information on the show, fans can follow Tonton on Facebook, Twitter, TikTok and Instagram di @tontonmy.

(Video) SEVENTEEN's Joshua, DK, & Dino Confirm Visit To Malaysia For Upcoming Mister Potato Event
Fans never tire of hearing exciting news about their favourite K-pop idols coming to Malaysia for concerts, fan meetings, or special appearances at brand events. We're only halfway through 2025, and the list of stars set to visit our shores is constantly being updated. Joining the list are three members of a popular boy group. Recently, Mister Potato Malaysia shared a photo featuring the silhouettes of three male idols, teasing K-pop fans with the news that they'll be making their way to Kuala Lumpur for a special appearance. Many made their guesses on who they could be, and it seems that the majority are correct! Last week, Mister Potato Malaysia announced their Jinjja Crunch collaboration with SEVENTEEN (세븐틴) members Joshua, DK, and Dino. The announcement video features the idols posing with three different flavours of the popular snack; Original, BBQ and Sour Cream & Onion. While an official statement regarding their visit to Malaysia has yet to be confirmed, the singers themselves appeared to spoil the surprise by posting a behind-the-scenes vlog of them filming promotional content for the brand. In the video posted yesterday (Tuesday, 22nd July), the members can be heard excitedly announcing that they'll be coming to Malaysia soon. 'We have 진짜 exciting news for you guys. We love you, Mister Potato! See you in Malaysia!' they said in the vlog. That particular moment quickly went viral among Malaysian fans, with many expressing their excitement about the visit. Some commented on how surprised they were to hear the news directly from the members before the brand had made an official announcement. Others are hoping that the upcoming event will be held at a larger venue, rather than a shopping centre, to accommodate not only meet-and-greet winners but also other fans who wish to see them in person. However, Joshua, DK, and Dino were not the first to spoil the surprise as MAMEE-Double Decker Group CEO, Mr. Pierre Pang, previously posted on his IG Story about the event when the brand first teased about the collab. At the time of writing, Mister Potato has yet to make the official announcement about the upcoming event with the 3 SEVENTEEN members. While we wait for more details, here's the behind-the-scenes vlog of the singers confirming their visit: The promo announcement video they filmed: Sources: Instagram, YouTube
