The paper examines aspects of K-Pop Fan culture in the Philippines. Data were gathered from fieldwork and participant observation in various fan events, as well as, online and actual informal discussions with Philippine K-Pop fans. Results support how the K-Pop scene is cultivating a new area of study in Philippine youth culture; one in which cross-cultural ties with Korea and the rest of the world is clearly manifested.
