The Carolina K-pop Community events team is hosting their final blow-out bash with us at Divine Barrel Brewing! If you made it to our Hello Future! party last year, then ring the fire alarm – you know we’re gonna make this one extra SPICY. (Don’t, uh, actually ring a fire alarm unless there’s a fire. Thanks.)
We’re doubling up on the magic with TWO random play dance sessions, all-night music & videos, vendors, photo ops, freebies, raffles, and a costume contest! DASH over to the tickets and get your spot! Need more details first? I GOT YOU. [also, please just pretend we came up with a good Eve, Psyche & the Bluebeard’s Wife pun]
