With the K-pop scene constantly moving, fans have to make sure they are keeping up with everything as much as they can. There are a lot more apps to keep you updated than you might think to help you stay current with the latest K-pop trends while you wait for your faves to have a comeback.
Check out these seven apps to help you see K-pop in a new way.
Eggbun, Learn Korean
Wanting to pick up Korean? Eggbun is perfect for those who want to start learning. This chat-style app helps you pick up phrases, questions, and more through speaking, texting, and reading. Start learning the basics through this app so you can sing along to your favorite songs in no time.
V-Live, Live Streaming (now part of Weverse)
Sure, watching music videos is a good way to see your favorite K-pop idols, but sometimes it is best to see them when they are just relaxing. V-Live let you watch your faves goofing off and talking to fans in real time, with throwback broadcasts also archived for binge sessions. V-Live officially shut down on January 1, 2023, with all of its live streaming features and creators migrating into Weverse, the Hybe-run fan platform. So if you are looking for that V-Live experience today, Weverse is where you will find it.
KPOP Amino, Socializing App
With K-pop being known across the globe, the K-pop community is also constantly growing. A great app to meet fans with the same interests as you is KPOP Amino. This app is not just for meeting new people, it is also great for keeping up with news through blog posts, photos, quizzes, and more.
SuperStar, Rhythm Game
Looking for a way to pass time? Check out the SuperStar series. These rhythm games are perfect for anyone who wants to test their reflexes while listening to K-pop. The franchise has expanded into many different versions focused on specific labels, including SuperStar SMTOWN, SuperStar JYPNATION, SuperStar PLEDIS, SuperStar STARSHIP, and more.
K-Pop Tiles, Rhythm Game
Another game perfect for those who love listening to K-pop while passing time is K-Pop Tiles. It is a little less competitive than SuperStar, but just as fun. With a wider variety packed into one app, this game is perfect for a quick study break.
Snow, Photo Filters
