K-pop fans from the Visayas always have to go the extra mile to go to events such as concerts in Metro Manila. This time, however, Cebuano ARMYs have lucked out.
The BTS pop-up PH.APOBANGPO in SM Seaside Cebu can’t be found anywhere else in the country. The store carries official merchandise and has BTS-related photo spots that are close to our hearts.

The store has 2 photo spots that remind us of our favorite BTS comfort songs.

One is a reproduction of the run-down carousel from the “Spring Day” music video. There’s also a photo spot that imitates the bus stop from the “You Never Walk Alone” left and digital versions’ album cover.
Besides these, you can also take a selfie with BTS, or a standee of their group photo, at least.

AH.APOBANGPO sells TinyTAN merchandise. TinyTAN are licensed animated characters of the BTS members. Products available at the store include pop sockets, diffusers, and monogram crossbody pouches (starting at P1,210, ~USD21.21).
The pop-up also carries limited-edition D’ICON BTS Goes On magazine, photobook, t-shirt, and – of course – photocards.

If official fan merchandise is too pricy for your budget, you can still get wallet-friendly souvenirs at this pop-up.
You can get one of PH.APOBANGPO’s BTS pin badges for P75 (~USD1.31) and an APOBANGPO tote bag for P250 (~USD4.38).
