At the venue

Rain poncho

Outdoor venues (like Goyang Stadium) have no roof, and umbrellas are usually not allowed in.

Upcoming shows at Goyang Sports Complex

Lap blanket

Outdoor venues (like Goyang Stadium) have no roof. From October to March it gets much colder once the sun goes down, and nothing stops the wind.

Upcoming shows at Goyang Sports Complex

Seat cushion

Seats at outdoor stadiums (like Goyang Stadium) are hard plastic. Something to sit on makes three hours go by more easily.

Upcoming shows at Goyang Sports Complex

Concert binoculars

In big venues like domes, stadiums and arenas, the stage looks tiny from the upper tiers.

Upcoming shows at KSPO DOME · Inspire Entertainment Resort · Goyang Sports Complex · Jamsil Indoor Gymnasium · Seoul Arena · Gocheok Sky Dome

Power bank

Mobile tickets, entry notices and checking the last train afterwards all happen on your phone.

Lightstick batteries

Many lightsticks take AAA batteries (check the back of yours, models differ). If they run out mid-show, the light goes off.

For the trip

Travel adapter

Korean sockets are 220V with two round pins (types C and F). Flat-pin plugs from Japan or the US will not fit as they are.

Passport holder

For shows booked from abroad, your passport is often checked when you collect tickets or go in. Keep it where you can reach it.

Photocard holder

Photocards from the venue or a pop-up bend easily in a bag. Bring a rigid holder for them.

Bubble wrap pouch

Albums and goods easily get dented corners in a suitcase. Wrap them in bubble wrap.

Foldable tote

Goods and albums make the trip home heavier. A bag you can fold away and open when you need it helps.

Sheet masks

A light, small Korean gift that is easy to share.
