New Residents Have Arrived in POPORO CITY! Meet 130 New Neighbors

Big news from the station platform: 130 new residents have just arrived in POPORO CITY! Suitcases in hand and waving hello, they come from Korea, Japan, France, the USA, the UK, Brazil, Canada, Italy, Thailand and many more places. All of them are women between 20 and 35, and each one has a job, a home and a story waiting for her in the city.

Here is who joined us this week:

  • 50 artists: singers, dancers, composers, actresses, models and idol trainees
  • 30 citizens: librarians, designers, students, nurses and other neighbors you will meet around town
  • 10 KPOPORO staff: managers, stylists, makeup artists and A&R scouts
  • 20 shop owners: bubble tea, flowers, a pet cafe, a ramen bar, vintage clothes and more
  • 20 store owners: shoes, cosmetics, plants, toys, stationery, perfume and more

Every new resident already has friends in town. The artists joined agencies and found seniors to learn from, the citizens met their neighbors, the staff joined their teams, and the shop and store owners already have regulars and neighboring shops. You will see them in our stories, music, radio and videos from now on.
