Have you visited
Birthday Café? Birthday Café is a café where fans celebrate the birthday of their favorite idol
members. Normally, it is held in Seoul but sometimes it is held in the
provinces or overseas.
Today, I went to
Birthday Café of Han, Felix and Seung Min from Stray Kids. It was held in café
GOMZAK located in Hongdae (Hongik Univ. in English)!
When I arrived at
the café, it was early to come to the cafe so the line hasn't been long yet. I was
able to enter the café after a few minutes.

I saw the individual photos, I thought they were powerful and cute.

the choco set, one of the set menus at the café. |
At the café, I ordered the "choco set." In this set menu, "set benefits," such as a pin button, note pad and can sticker, were included. Both the set benefits and normal benefits included a paper cup, paper slogan and three types of stickers.
To my taste, choco drink was sweet and cookies were light, so I
felt both the choco drink and the cookies matched well as a set menu.

When I looked at the opposite side, there were individual photos of Han, Felix and Seung Min. When I saw these photos, I thought it goes well with late summer because of the atmosphere in the photos.

Overall, the café was small but it was cozy. Also, I had a chance to meet STAYs from Philippines. When I asked how you got information about the birthday café, they said they got the information through Twitter.
Also, when I asked about the favorite thing about the birthday café, one of them said "the drink and concept," while the other one said "the goods and photos."
