Filipino K-pop fans, rejoice! A new destination for all things K-pop is finally arriving in the metro as Record Planet is opening its first-ever store in the Philippines at Market! Market! Mall in BGC, Taguig.
The store will house a wide library of official albums from today’s biggest K-pop acts such as BTS, BLACKPINK, ENHYPEN, STRAY KIDS, and ATEEZ, among others.
For the grand opening, fans can expect exclusive POBs (pre-order benefits), exciting in-store surprises, a lucky draw event, and special limited giveaways.
Known for its extensive catalog of official albums, pre‑order benefits (POBs), and collectibles sourced from top Korean entertainment labels, Record Planet has built a following among international fans through its online platform.
Before the store’s official launch on March 18, 2026, Filipino fans could only purchase items via its website and e‑commerce platforms like Shopee, with shipping costs and long waiting times for items to arrive.
With the opening, both longtime and new K-pop fans now have the chance to be among the first to get gold editions of the latest releases, revisit the existing catalog, participate in exciting sales, and connect with fellow fans at a time when physical stores have become a lost art.
Back in the day, stores like Astroplus, Radio City, Music One, and Odyssey were sanctuaries for music lovers, where fans would line up to be first for new releases, attend listening parties, and meet artists at meet-and-greet events.
