There’s nothing like having fun with your friends and fellow K-pop fans, fangirling (or fanboying) over your favourite idols – and what better way to do so than with a K-pop viewing party? If you’re not familiar, viewing parties are when groups gather together to catch a live event or binge a bunch of movies or shows. With the long weekend approaching, this is your chance to host one. Here’s what you need to hold 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!
