In 2017, I discovered the music genre K-Pop (Korean Pop) by pure coincidence on YouTube. Since then, I've fallen into a rabbit hole, absorbing various knowledge of the Korean culture and the K-Pop community. So for my final project, I have chosen K-Pop as my interest.
Collecting K-Pop merchandise is a part of the fan experience, but it is an overwhelming experience when you are starting. On average, K-Pop Bands release new music three times a year ranging from an EP to a repackaged album. Within a K-Pop album, there are varieties of collectables, having a standard music cd, photo books and photo cards of the band members. Although K-Pop is well known and has become popular, there isn't a solution that a fan needs when starting a collection. As a UI/UX designer, I need to design a solution using the knowledge and skills I have learned from my previous papers.
