Airbnb experiences themed after K-pop boy band Seventeen to be rolled out in major cities

Airbnb experiences themed after K-pop boy band Seventeen to be rolled out in major cities SEOUL – In short-term lodging, experience could matter just as much or more than the spaces themselves, which is why a collaboration with a K-pop boy band such as Seventeen is so beneficial, according to Airbnb co-founder and CEO Brian Chesky. At a press conference in Seoul on June 4, the vacation rental website's head honcho recalled working with the South Korean group in 2024, a project he said had proved to be hugely popular with not only Seventeen fans, but Airbnb travellers as a whole, because of the unique experience it offered. The collaboration included replicating the set of Seventeen's music video Love, Money, Fame (2024) into a real-life accommodation, allowing Carats - what Seventeen fans are dubbed - to experience a unique stay. The same props from the music video were also used to furnish the Seventeen-inspired Airbnb room. 'We plan to roll out Seventeen-themed Airbnb programmes in major cities,' Mr Chesky said at the press conference, without identifying where. This followed a meet-and-greet event for 60 pre-selected Seventeen fans where the K-pop act were one-day-only special Airbnb hosts, in celebration of its 10th anniversary. Seventeen Airbnb Experience, as the fan gathering was called, was a demonstration of Airbnb Originals, a celebrity-hosted exclusive experience that is part of Airbnb Experiences, an ambitious programme Airbnb launched in May to focus on unique activities run by local hosts. The programme is to help travellers truly experience their local surroundings with local hosts who know just how to do so, according to Mr Chesky. 'The biggest asset in people's lives is really not their home — it's their time. What if people could share not only their space, but their time with someone else?' he asked. The latest trip to Seoul by the Airbnb CEO is part of his global tour to promote Airbnb Experiences. He has made stops in Paris, Berlin, Milan and Tokyo, and emphasised that Seoul is a strategic market he personally finds deeply inspirational. According to Airbnb Korea, bookings on the platform in the country in 2024 soared 20 per cent from the previous year. The make-up of international visitors to South Korea is increasingly becoming diverse, the company added without elaboration.

'A different kind of charm': K-star Park Bo-gum swops love for punches in action-comedy Good Boy

South Korean actor Park Bo-gum has exchanged the heart-rending romance of When Life Gives You Tangerines (2025) for boxing gloves in the high-octane action-comedy Good Boy. Available on Prime Video, the 16-episode show follows a group of former elite athletes who are recruited to be crime fighters after their stellar sporting careers are unfairly cut short. The popular K-drama heart-throb plays ex-national boxer Yoon Dong-ju, while Lee Sang-yi is fencer Kim Jong-hyeon and Kim So-hyun, shooting prodigy Ji Han-na. Heo Sung-tae of Squid Game (2021) fame portrays the group's leader and former wrestler Ko Man-sik, while Tae Won-seok plays gentle giant Shin Jae-hong, an ex-discus thrower. Playing an action hero is a departure for Park, who has built a career playing charming romantic leads in hit series like Love In The Moonlight (2016), Encounter (2018) and Record Of Youth (2020). Park's recent performance in When Life Gives You Tangerines, in which he portrayed devoted husband Yang Gwan-sik to actress-singer IU's Oh Ae-sun, saw him receive a best television actor nomination at the Baeksang Arts Awards in May. The melodrama, which won best drama at the ceremony and is available on Netflix, was a global success and frequently on the platform's Global Top 10 Non-English Shows list. Park, 31, was drawn to Good Boy because of the "interesting plot" and the opportunity to try his hand at a new genre. "The script was such a page-turner, like a comic book," Park tells The Straits Times over Zoom from Bangkok on June 1, where he attended the Thailand premiere of the series with his co-stars Lee and Kim. "The action was described in great detail, and I've always wanted to try the crime action genre," Park says, adding that he has never played a police officer or a boxer. "I want to show audiences a different side of me that I hope will be refreshing." Park Bo-gum plays a former national boxer in Good Boy. PHOTO: PRIME VIDEO As Park has many action scenes in Good Boy, he threw himself into preparing for the role by learning how to fight. Every day for six months, he trained with a boxing coach, underwent weights training and rehearsed fight choreography with the production's action and martial arts team. However, his enthusiasm got the better of him - he suffered a minor leg injury and had to take a 1½-month break to recover. While Park is a newbie to action, Lee is on familiar ground, having played a delinquent boxer in the hit action-packed series Bloodhounds (2023). "In Bloodhounds, I fought with my hands. But in Good Boy, I had to learn sword-fighting. And as a policeman, I don't carry weapons, so I had to fight with what's (lying) around, like a broom," says Lee. Lee Sang-yi plays an ex-national fencer in Good Boy. PHOTO: PRIME VIDEO The 33-year-old, who has been acting in South Korean plays and musicals for more than a decade, says Bloodhounds gave him the "action guy" persona. He is currently filming the show's second season. Kim, who plays a marksman in Good Boy, has also been bitten by the action bug. The 25-year-old, who debuted as a child actress in 2006, is a familiar face in K-dramas, having starred in The Tale Of Nokdu (2019), Love Alarm (2019 to 2021) and River Where The Moon Rises (2021). Kim So-hyun is a shooting prodigy in Good Boy. PHOTO: PRIME VIDEO "I needed to work out a lot to have the strength to hold the guns," Kim says, adding that she was initially afraid of firearms and underwent months of shooting practices during pre-production. She had difficulty memorising action choreography, even though she has the least such scenes among the cast. "I remember being in awe of them. Everyone was so professional," she says. Kim adds that their "chemistry is great and everyone got along really well". Both Kim and Lee credit Park for being the "glue that held everyone together". For instance, Park always initiated and arranged meal gatherings and outings on their days off. Calling Park the "natural leader", Lee says Park always had a list of good restaurants and cafes at hand. Park even arranged for the main cast to watch a play together. Park Bo-gum (left) and Lee Sang-yi in Good Boy. PHOTO: PRIME VIDEO Lee also praised Park's work ethic, as he always arrived early on set. "We have some scenes together in the sea, but I have a fear of water," Lee says. "Bo-gum kept reassuring me, telling me it's okay. If it hadn't been for him, I don't think I could have pulled it off." Park, who will be in Singapore for his Be With You fan meeting at The Star Theatre on Aug 14, has high hopes for Good Boy. Thanking fans for showing "tremendous support" to When Life Gives You Tangerines, he says Good Boy offers "a different kind of charm".

He adds: "Everyone, including the production crew, put in their best efforts. I'm happy and proud to be part of Good Boy, so do give it a lot of love."
