Our Visit
Today, I visited POCA SPOT, a K-POP photocard shop in Hongdae. It’s a great spot to quickly and easily buy photocards of your favorite idols, and the best part is you can get them on the spot—no waiting for delivery!
There were many fans who love K-POP inside the store! You can tell that this place is really popular among K-POP fans.
We went straight to the monitor to order the photocards. English, Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish are available, so you don't have to worry about language barriers! After reading all the information about 'POCA SPOT', press the [Start] button!
From globally popular K-idols to rookie Idols, almost all idols are included in the list.
If you select the group first, you can see the photocard list for each member. Let's go to the my favorite NCT and pick a photo card!
I started by picking two photocards I had always wanted. The shop clearly separates album photocards from special ones, and even lists which album and version they come from, making it easy to get all the details. I added my chosen photocards to the cart and kept browsing for more!
After browsing through other groups and members, it felt like they had every photocard imaginable! Being able to buy the photocard you want on the spot and see the actual item right away makes this the perfect place for K-POP fans.
Then I also checked out photocards of other idols. I plan to buy photo cards of the idols my friends like and give them as gifts!
If you have placed all the photocards you wish to purchase into the [shopping cart], proceed with the order.
Enter your information including name, contact, and email. Based on this, you’ll receive a notification when your photocards are ready for pickup.
Make sure all information is correct before proceeding with the order. Once you complete your order, [order number, pickup time] will appear on the screen. Please check the pickup time on the screen carefully, as pickup is only available during these times.
Now I moved to the desk, told the staff member my order number, and confirmed the order. And I paid cash for the order amount and made the purchase. They said card payment is also possible.
Your receipt has your collection number written on it. Make sure to bring the receipt during the pickup time, don't forget it!
My pickup time was after 7 p.m. on the same day, so I visited at that time. I showed the receipt to the employee, and the employee stamped the receipt as confirmation.
The receipt number is written on the photocard packaging envelope, so please check carefully to ensure it is your photocard. The photocard is packaged in an envelope to prevent damage.
When I opened the packaging, I found the photocard neatly placed in a protective holder. POCA SPOT makes sure every photocard comes in a case to prevent damage, and they even provide a storage case so you can carry them around safely and conveniently!
I showed my Creatrip reservation and picked up the pre-booked Mystery Packs for SEVENTEEN and Stray Kids.
Since it's drawn at random, I was really excited from the moment I made the reservation, wondering which photocards I'd get. I ended up getting photocards I really liked from both of my favorite groups!
I made a reservation through Creatrip and got one extra photocard. If you want to get the bonus, make sure to book in advance!
The photocard random pack includes photocards from popular groups like Seventeen and NCT, and you can choose your preferred group.
*Please note that the idol in the random pack may vary depending on the store's stock.
I choose Seventeen to unbox. I'm so excited and curious about who will come out!
It's THE 8!!! It seems that a variety of pretty photocards at different price points are included in the random pack. Getting photocards randomly is like a game and quite fun. If you have a favorite idol and plan to visit Hongdae, I think it’s worth stopping by!
