Pompompurin’s Mandu Pop-Up in Seoul: Everything You Need to Know

The Pompompurin’s Waa-ang Mandu Pop-Up (폼폼푸린의 와-앙만두) has taken over the 6th floor of Yongsan I’Park Mall’s Living Park, turning the space into an adorable little dumpling restaurant starring Pompompurin and his friends. The whole concept is based around 왕만두 (wang-mandu), those big, fluffy Korean steamed buns, and pretty much everything, from the displays to the merchandise, has been given a mandu makeover.

Dragon Ball Heroes Rise: Ultimate Guide to the Dragon Ball Exhibition in Seoul

Dragon Ball: Heroes Rise Asia Tour has officially landed in Seoul, and this is definitely not your average pop-up. Instead of simply displaying pieces behind glass, the exhibition takes you through some of the most iconic moments in the Dragon Ball universe with life-sized characters, recreated scenes, interactive games, photo zones and digital missions. So naturally, I had to check it out.

Pokémon Lotte Town Summer Market Seoul 2026: Lotte World Mall Guide

Pokémon Starlight Paradise has arrived at Lotte World Mall in Jamsil, featuring an impossible to miss, giant pokéball sitting right in the middle of the lawn. The ball is actually a giant dome that you can walk through. And inside is one of the most whimsical Pokémon displays I’ve seen so far. Imagine a rainbow lit pond filled with glowing Magikarp lanterns and beautiful sky projections all across the entire ceiling of the dome. Truly an immersive experience.

As if Seoul wasn’t already overloaded with pop-ups this spring, Pokémon just said “hold my Poké Ball.” The city has basically turned into one giant Pokémon playground thanks to Pokémon Mega Festa 2026, a massive city-wide event celebrating Pokémon’s 30th anniversary. And honestly? Even people who aren’t hardcore Pokémon fans are getting pulled in because the photo zones, merch, and nostalgia levels are ridiculously good right now.

If you somehow survived the original KPop Demon Hunters obsession last year, I regret to inform you that Seoul has decided to bring it back full circle.
