Thoughtful KPop Gifts and KDrama Gifts for KPop and KDrama Lovers
If you’re not into KPop and KDrama but your friends and family are, you’re probably clueless about what to give them for gifts. Plus, if they’re true hard core fans, they already probably have all the official merch available in the planet.
The key is to be a bit more creative and thoughtful. With a little bit of fishing and investigation, you’ll be able to come up with the most thoughtful gifts for the KDrama and KPop addicts in your life. To get you started, here’s a list of gift ideas for KDrama and KPop lovers.
Something with their bias
More often than not you’ve overheard your KPop addicted friends talk about their “bias” or who they “stan”. Well to put it simply, they’re basically talking about their crush or their favorite member of a particular KPop group.
On your next get together, try to listen in and figure out who your friend’s bias is. You can then give them a shirt, a sweatshirt, a hoodie, a blanket (the list is practically endless) with their bias’ name or face. Etsy is the best place to search for these things.
So for example, your friend’s bias is Jungkook from BTS and she just loves wearing sweatshirts (even when it’s 80 degrees outside). You can gift her this 5-star rated embroidered sweatshirt from Etsy.

There’s a lot to choose from even in Amazon. If your friend and family member is into more revealing clothes, check out this crop top for Yoongi (BTS) stans.

You can also opt to give a funny (and kinda weird) gift, like a blanket! This gift will definitely get some laughs but I’m pretty sure it’ll be well loved and much appreciated.

This gift idea will also work for KDrama fans. Just find out who their favorite Korean actor is or the character on their favorite KDrama series that they wish they could marry in their next life. Be it Hyun Bin from Crash Landing on You or Chief Hong (played by Kim Seon-ho) from Hometown Cha Cha Cha, you’ll definitely find a ton of options on Etsy.

Something with their favorite KPop song or KDrama line
Some fans are so supportive of their KPop groups that they don’t play favorites. They don’t really have a bias. Rather, they support the WHOLE group.
For this type of fans, why not gift them with something related to their favorite song, like this hoodie with Blackpink’s Shut Down lyrics.

For non-Korean KDrama fans, we really can’t speak Korean. But after hours of watching KDramas, we surely know and recognize a couple of words or expressions that are often spoken by these very animated characters — words like “chingu” which means “friend” and expressions like “aigoo!” which translates to something like “oh no!” or “geez!”.
Check out these gift options from Etsy for your KDrama addicted friend.

If you’re not into KPop or KDrama, it’s definitely difficult to figure out what to buy for KDrama fans and KPop lovers, especially when they’re hard core fans who already own most of the official merch out there. But with a little bit of research and creativity, you can absolutely find a special and thoughtful gift that’s out of the ordinary.
