Take a look at some of the key events in South Korea from 2018:

Must Listen Korean Artists Korea 2018

Heize | Rapper, Singer-Songwriter

With her soulful, yet soothing voice, Heize has established herself as one of Korea’s most versatile artists. Her appearance in the second season of hit reality-show Unpretty Rapstar shot this multi-talented jewel to fame. At the tender age of 24, Heize has already released four number one singles and seems ready to dominate the industry for years to come.

Lee Hi | Singer

Packing a big voice in a slender body, Lee Hi is fast establishing herself as the queen of Korean R & B. Her debut single “1, 2, 3, 4” was released in 2012 and reached number one on Korean music charts within one week.

Following the success of her debut, Lee Hi has taken time to remake her image from an innocent young girl into a vocal powerhouse. Her performance of the song “Breathe”, (written by the late Kim Jonghyun) at the 2017 Golden Disk Awards, received widespread acclaim for its sincerity and emotion.

Dean | Producer, Singer-Songwriter

Just like Heize, Dean was a musical prodigy who spent years working behind the scenes before finding mainstream success. However, unlike most K-Pop artists, Dean began his career by debuting in America, instead of Korea.

Before debuting, Dean was an accomplished producer and songwriter, working with the likes of Keith Ape and EXO. Dean’s second single, “Pour Up” (Feat. Zico), won the award for Best R & B Song at the 2016 Korean Music Awards. Also, he’s a regular collaborator with other stars such as Crush, Taeyeon, and Heize.

Bulletproof Boy Scouts | Boy Band

To call these boys the hottest thing in Korea would be a gross understatement. BTS has become a worldwide hit, with the group topping not just music charts, but winning awards for social media outreach. The boys have sold over five million albums worldwide and broke the Guinness World Record for most Twitter interactions amongst musicians.

BTS’ second worldwide tour “Wings” saw the group perform in locales like Brazil and the United States. Thanks to their immense popularity, outlets like CNN and The New York Times have recognized BTS as one of the world’s best-selling artists.

Best of Seoul Competition Winners Korea 2018

Firstly, thank you to everyone who participated in the Best of Seoul polls this year. We love to see reader engagement and love how much passion people show for their favorite businesses in Seoul! 

Without further ado, here are the winners of the Best of Seoul 2018 competition in ALL categories! 

Best Club in Seoul: Cakeshop 

Sweeping best EDM and hip-hop categories was Itaewon staple Cake Shop. With live sets every weekend including top national and international talent, its easy to see why Cakeshop was voted the best.

Best Live Music Venue: Club FF

Keeping the rock music scene in Hongdae alive is Club FF. With live rock shows until late night every weekend, Club FF is a favorite among alternative-style expats and Koreans alike. 

Best Cocktails: Southside Parlor

Southside Parlor, a double-threat with a seasonal cocktail menu and amazing eats as well, was the heavy favorite for our Best Cocktails category. With cocktails are named “Hot and Buttered” and “Pear Necessities”, how can anyone compete?

Best Bar Food and Sports Bar: Route 66

Our second establishment to blow out two categories is Route 66. The homey (for Americans) sports bar in Itaewon is home of some great bar food as well as wallet-saving weeknight specials. Next time there’s a big game, head out to Route 66 to watch just like at home!

Best Mexican Food: Masa Tacos

Tacos, burritos, quesadillas and their special, the Loaded (Tater) Tots, Masa is bringing authentic Cali-Mexican food to Seoul. One look down their Instagram page will have your mouth watering. Next time you crave Mexican food, think outside of Itaewon. Think Masa.

Best Attraction: Namsan Tower

The most iconic feature in cityscape photos of Seoul is undoubtedly Namsan Tower. Visitors from around the world flock to take pictures at the peak. Although the massive Lotte Tower is starting to take away attention from this older landmark, to me, nothing beats a rooftop in Yongsan with views of Namsan Tower.

Best Pizza: Spacca Napoli

Another one on the list located away from Itaewon is Spacca Napoli. Owner Giulio Lee takes pizza seriously, and was also recently recognized by Gambero Rosso, an Italian publication highlighting great Italian food around the world. Spacca Napoli is one place you shouldn’t miss.

How To Watch The FIFA World Cup in Korea 2018

Though as an expat in Korea you might be far from home, there are plenty of ways to watch your country compete in the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Whether you prefer streaming the games at home, cheering your team on at a crowded bar, or celebrating with thousands of other people in the heart of Seoul, we’ve got you covered.

With the games right around the corner, here at 10 Magazine, we’ve created a guide on how to watch the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Korea!

How to Watch The Games At Home

The South Korean broadcasting rights for the World Cup belong to MBC, KBS, and SBS, so if you have Korean cable, you can easily catch the games on tv. To live stream the games on your mobile phone, download the MBC TV app.Keep in mind, though, commentary on these channels will be conducted in Korean without any subtitles. The coverage on these channels will also mostly be on the South Korean national team, which will kick off their opening game against Sweden on June 18 (9pm KST). The Taeguk Warriors are drawn in a tough group this year that includes Mexico, Sweden, and defending champions Germany. This first game is a must-win if Korea has any hopes of advancing to the knockout stages.

Which Bars to Watch The Games At

If your team isn’t scheduled to play against Korea, head over to one of the many sports bars in Seoul. These bars are sure to broadcast many of the major international matches (during business hours) for patrons to enjoy. Just to be safe though, be sure to call ahead to reserve seating and confirm the availability of the game you’re planning to watch! Here are a couple options for you:

Mass Viewing Party At Gwanghwamun Square

The events will be filled with viewing parties, pre-match performances, giveaways, and cheering events. The official the nickname of the Korean team’s fan-club is the Red Devils – so be sure to wear something red!

What You Need To Know About The Inter-Korean Summit Korea 2018

 April 27, the leaders of North and South Korea, Kim Jong-un and Moon Jae-in, will meet for the first time in Panmunjom (판문점), a village in the Joint Security Area of the DMZ.

At this historical inter-Korean summit, the topics up for discussion include the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula and the restoration of the Demilitarized Zone to its original state.

What makes this summit historical?

North and South Koreans leaders rarely meet face-to-face. Today marks only the third time since 1953 that the leaders of the two countries have personally met (the previous two summits were held in 2000 and 2007). Kim, so far, has only met with one other state leader, Xi Jinping of China, since his ascension in 2011. Today’s events also mark the first instance, since the end of the Korean War, that a North Korean leader set foot on South Korean soil.

Kim’s willingness to meet President Moon came as surprise to many international onlookers after a year of  high tensions between North Korea and the global community. Kim is also expected to meet President Trump later this year. Many experts speculate that today’s events will “prepar[e] the ground for US president Donald Trump to meet Kim in May or June.”

What do both parties want?

More than anything, both Kim and Moon want to claim today’s summit as a success, whatever that may look like. Many see today’s inter-Korean summit as an ideal opportunity to repair diplomatic ties between the two countries. Talks of economic cooperation and the official end of the Korean war are also on the table, but it is unlikely that an official peace treaty will be signed today.

Promises of denuclearisation from the North is a prerequisite to peace on the Korean peninsula, according to President Moon. “The complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula is the most urgent task that lies before us and a task we must complete peacefully,” Moon stated during a Buddhist service held last Tuesday to pray for the success of the upcoming summit, according to a transcript released by The Blue House.

Enjoy Authentic Italian Cuisine At The Italian Food Festival Korea 2018

Alla Torre | Mapo-gu, Seoul

Verdict: The dish proposed by Alla Torre was simple but delicious: bread croutons with chicken liver paté and norcia black truffles. We kept wanting to reach for more.

Vera Pizza & Pasta Napoli | Yongsan-gu, Seoul

Background: Vera Pizza & Pasta Napoli is famous for its authentic Italian pizzas. Vera’s chefs create exquisite, home-style food with flavors from Campania, a region in the south of Italy. The restaurant’s name, ‘Vera’, means real and points to the philosophy of the chefs and owners of Vera, who only want to serve authentic Napoli pizza so that everybody can experience a true taste of Italy.

Atrio | Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul

Verdict: Atrio served Stockfish Tortello with a side of cherry tomatoes. The pasta was cooked to perfection and the dish bursted with flavors.
