Welcome to POPORO CITY: A First-Timer's Guide to the Music Town, 24/7 Radio and Song Archive
It is late, you are finishing some work, and you want music in the background. Not your usual playlist this time, something with a little story behind it. That is a good moment to visit POPORO CITY, a music town full of original characters. This guide is for first-time visitors: what the city is, where to start, and how to enjoy it in a few minutes.
What is POPORO CITY?
POPORO CITY is a city of original characters run by KPOPORO. Singers and artists live there, along with the announcer LUMI, shop owners, staff and everyday residents who simply live their days. As of late October 2026, the city portal kpoporo.com lists 384 residents, including 121 artists, 31 staff members and 170 citizens, plus 62 shops and stores.
The city has its own landmarks: the KPOPORO Arena, Mirae Central Station, the harbor and Neo Galaxy Mall, the LUMI Broadcasting Center and the KPOPORO Grand Hotel. On the portal you can check today's schedule, the weather, and small news about what residents are doing, such as who is listening to music at Artist Town or who is having a meal at City Center. Reading these little updates feels a bit like looking out of a window onto a busy street.
POPORO RADIO, live 24 hours a day
The easiest way in is POPORO RADIO. Open live.kpoporo.cloud and songs by POPORO CITY artists play live, 24 hours a day. The idea behind it is "Same song, many voices": one song can be heard in different languages and different voices. The radio has 30 channels, split into mix channels, Korean channels, BGM channels and channels for many languages, and there is also a POPORO RADIO podcast in six languages.
Quick tip: if you hear nothing, unmute the player. If you want quiet music for studying or working, try a BGM channel.
Finding the songs
Heard something you like? Head to the music archive kpoporo.art. It lists POPORO MUSIC songs and their versions in different languages, so you can look for the English version of a song or compare it with the Korean one. You can also follow the artist page on Spotify to catch new releases.
LINE stickers and the city shop
The characters also live on your phone. The singer Yara has a LINE sticker set on sale, and sets for other characters are on the way. You can read the full story in our POPORO CITY LINE stickers guide.
For shopping, kpoporo.shop is the city's global shop, a curated collection of products from partner brands: fashion, beauty, travel gear and gift ideas. Even just browsing is fun, especially in the gift season.
A simple first-visit route
