K-Trail Seoul is live: a free K-pop pilgrimage map for Seoul, Busan, Goyang, Incheon and Jeju
K-Wire Network's sister project, K-Trail Seoul, is officially live and free to use — no account, no paywall. It's an offline-ready map of real K-pop pilgrimage spots: agency HQs, concert and broadcast venues, cafes and culture stops, plus curated hotels and restaurants near the busiest clusters (Seongsu, Hongdae, Myeongdong, K-Star Road, Jamsil), now covering five cities — Seoul, Busan, Goyang, Incheon and Jeju. It installs straight to your home screen as an app (Share → Add to Home Screen on iOS, the install banner on Android/desktop), saves map areas for offline use before you lose signal, and lets you save and share individual spots. With Fanomenon set to bring a wave of international fans to Korea in December 2027, this is the time to start building your own trail.

JYP’s Park Jin-young defends "Fanomenon" trademark filing, explains agency selection at National Assembly hearing
Park Jin-young, co-chair of the Presidential Committee on Popular Culture Exchange, appeared before the National Assembly’s Culture, Sports and Tourism Committee to explain the process behind "Fanomenon" — a government-linked joint venture between HYBE, JYP, SM and YG for an annual K-pop awards show, concert series and exhibition set to debut in Seoul and Gyeonggi in December 2027. Park told lawmakers that his solo filing of the "Fanomenon" and "Pandemonium" trademarks overseas, ahead of any transfer to the joint entity, was a rushed but necessary step to stop the names from being taken by someone else before the joint venture could register them itself. On the selection of the four agencies without a public tender, Park argued the arrangement was a sacrifice rather than a favor, noting the four labels stood to earn two to three times more running individual concerts on their own. Lawmakers also raised questions about the committee’s projected 520,000 visitors and roughly 1 trillion won in economic impact, which organizers have described as provisional, midpoint estimates.
