How to go to Cube Entertainment and Cube Cafe 20 Space The Mint Universe (New Location 2017)

Cube Entertainment Building


Hi guys, now i'm back with the helpful travel guide for Kpopers, especially for the one who stan artist in cube entertainment such as BTOB (like me), pentagon, hyuna, and others.

I made this post especially because of my experience who lost so many times while looking for cube entertainment. That because i follow the old direction which lead to the old building of cube entertainment. However, actually cube entertainment is officially moved to the new location in seongsu area. This area is well known for its shoes, that's why when you get off at Seongsu station you could see the decoration for this station is full with shoes related things (just fyi).

Back to the information, so here is how you go to Cube Entertainment and Cube Cafe:
  • Take a subway and get off at Seongsu Station 
  • Get out from Exit 1 of Seongsu Station. 
  • From there (don't move your body direction), just walk straight.
  • After walk straight maybe around 2 minutes (not far), you will see Cube Entertainment new building on your right side. (So please pay attention to your right side while walking).

    The interesting thing from cube entertainment is they also provide cafe named 20 Space Mint Universe. So you can wait your favorite artists while having a sip of your coffee. In this cafe, they also sell albums and merchandise from artist under cube entertainment. I buy BTOB album and BTOB lightstick from this cafe. If you are lucky, maybe you will coincidentally meet your favorite idols while you are there. I want to meet BTOB but I met pentagon members instead :)

Scholarship in South Korea - Scholarship in KDI School of Public Policy and Management



In year 2017, I got once in a lifetime's chance to live in Korea for pursuing my Master Degree. At that time, I was so happy because finally I could live in Our Oppa's country (hehe), Korea. It's more wonderful and amazing because I went to Korea not only for living but also for studying. So it's like killing two birds using one stone lol ^^. 

So, you might wonder how could i get that chance? Where did I study? and you might also curious about how my study life there. So here in this post I would like to answer all those things. 

I got the scholarship from KDI School of Public Policy and Management. It's a graduate school which is linked with one of the well-known research institution in the world, which is Korean Development Institute (KDI). The scholarship's name is Global Ambassador Scholarship (GAS), which is one-year fully funded scholarship for pursuing Master Degree in KDI School. Because it's fully-funded, so it covers all tuition and we got monthly stipend as well. It's really nice, isn't it? 

Before we continue, I'd like to share the picture of my beautiful school.
It's snowy when I came.

As you can see in the picture, my school is covered with heavy snow because I came around January 2017, so it's still winter and the weather is so freaking cold. As a tropical country human being, i had to make myself get used to Korean's weather at that time hehe.

Anyway, continuing my information about the scholarship, I first knew the information from my friend, then I opened KDI School Website to find out more about the scholarship. In its website, the information is very complete and you could know when you can apply, what document do you need to fulfill, and how to apply the scholarship. So, I highly recommend you to visit the website to see the complete information about the scholarship. 

I simply registered on its website, completed all my documents and sent all documents to KDI school. The next stage is, if you pass document selection stage, you will face the interview session either by skype or phone. Gratefully, I passed all this stage so I could go to Korea and share this story to you guys hehe.
