You'll find over 35 restaurants here, including tons of Korean BBQ, Korean Shave Ice, Korean Corn Dogs, and of course topokki, a spicy braised rice cake soup topped with cheese.

      Planning on going there soon! Long time ago we went there when they were still charging a membership fee just to go to their store but it has changed name and there’s no more membership fee ! We went there two years ago! I just want to look for their merchandise! The produce and meats are expensive!

    The KPOP Center is more elaborate than you might realize. It's a training center for students looking to become an idol in Korea. Many of the instructors actually worked with idols from the Big 4 - and they have a development team to help students decided on a course. They also hold auditions here for several companies including Pledis, Hybe America, Black Label, Kakao, SM, Fantagio, Source and PNation.

    Hi Chris. Thanks for the nice walking tour. This mall is huge and not easy to make your way around. But sometimes you find some great places when you just wonder around. So many places to try wonderful Korean food. Guess I need to try them all if I'm in the area. Take care.

    I used to live just down Orangethorpe from here. I can't believe how much this has been developed.
    I used to love to go to the different Asian centers around OC like the Vietnamese places in Westminster and the Asian restaurants in Irvine. I'm going to be staying near there in a few months. I think I'll stop by.
    Thanks Chris!

    I generally get stressed out in malls but there’s a lot of outdoor space. I like the large selection of foods and merchandise and fun places like the indoor playground and movie theatres. I think this mall will be nicer with more seating areas outside for children and older people … more garden spaces/trees for people to chill out between shop visits.

    • @YellowProductions
      @YellowProductions  17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Agreed that the mall needs more seating

    That seems more of a regular Mall like they all are, it only has korean outlets in there, along with other international stores.

      Yeah - here and Koreatown, of course. (One of the best neighborhoods to live in LA, esp. if you don't have big bucks.) Some of the older businesses in KTown have folded or are struggling due to the effects of Covid.
