In addition, many information about your favorite K-Pop groups can be found on the platform. Needless to say, entertainment agencies make use of Twitter to make special announcement too.

Many K-Pop idols also make use of the platform to show off their fashion and of course, photography skills too.

 

#3 Facebook

Facebook is used these days mainly for promotional purpose of the K-Pop groups. Official photos from various events and even photoshoots can be found mainly in the album section of the Facebook page.

If you want to look back and find a particular official photo, Facebook might just be the platform for you to do so.

 

#4 V-Live

V-Live is a must to have on your phone as you never know when your favorite K-Pop group is going to hold V-Live session.

Imagine the surprise when the notification appears on your phone!

 

#5 Daum Cafe

Daum Cafe is a rather interesting place to explore once you get used to the various rooms available. You can also make friends, write letters to your favorite K-Pop group member and even read the letters they have exclusively written for you.

Some times during a comeback period, entertainment companies would also hold special events through Daum Cafe and give out signed polaroid to those who participate in them.

 

#6 Soundcloud 

One of the free music apps out there where artists can upload their music covers and original music is none other than Soundcloud.

Many K-Pop idols release their mixtape or even song covers on the platform. Sometimes, idols might also surprise fans by suddenly releasing a song!
