What Is Korean Karaoke Called?

First, karaoke is a Japanese word that’s also been adapted into English. Karaoke in Korean is noraebang, 노래방, but when translated directly from Korean means “song room.”

According to its name, it’s a private room usually rented by the hour, some of it being more expensive than others, depending on what luxury you want.

Inside the karaoke room, you’ll find the Korean karaoke machine with microphones, a remote for the TV screen, and a songbook. Some rooms may also have costumes, food, drink service, and other things to add to your performance. 

Often, there will be a variety of music choices from all genres and several languages, including English, Japanese, and Chinese - from the golden oldies to modern chart hits. 

Tips For Your First Korean Karaoke

Karaoke is an important tradition of Korean culture and entertainment that binds people together in a friend or coworker circle. For this reason, it's considerable to know the hierarchy of the situation, even though it's a more unwinding environment.

Make sure you ask someone's age since if someone is older than you, even by a year, they will be the ones who should start with the activities. Then, check and try to follow their example. Remember not to sing someone else's chosen song, and don't skip into someone's song unless asked. Regardless of talent, it's best to cheer and clap for the singer when it's over.
