BTS SUGA Birthday Cafe 🎈

What would it be like to step into birthday cafe of your favorite K-pop idol? Fans host birthday events at cafes and restaurants around popular areas like Hongdae and Yongsan in Seoul. If you're a BTS fan, all you need to do is stroll down the street behind the HYBE headquarter for a full-on birthday cafe tour. Let’s take a sneak peek into BTS Suga’s birthday celebration! 💜

When a BTS member’s birthday rolls around, the cafés tucked behind and alongside the HYBE building all flip into full-on birthday mode. Starting from a tteokbokki spot just two minutes away, the whole area turns into a BTS birthday zone—from bus stop screens and standing signs to café exteriors, everything glows in purple. On the map below, you’ll find 9 cafés and 1 restaurant that join the celebration. These birthday events usually run for 3 to 5 days before each member’s big day!

A tteokbokki spot already famous among BTS fans! Right out front, you’ll find BTS banners made by ARMY, and the whole storefront just screams love💗 It’s covered with photos of SUGA and BTS. Even the bus stop LED screen nearby is lit up with SUGA’s face! There’s a sign by the entrance, too—order a combo set and you’ll get a special freebie!

Step inside, and it’s BTS everywhere! The walls are covered with autographs, photos, posters, and fan-decorated notes. There’s even a small TV near the kitchen playing BTS videos on loop! With BTS songs playing in the background, it honestly feels more like a mini exhibition than a restaurant! 🎶💜

When ordering from the tablet at your table, just pick the set menu labeled “Free BTS Goods” and you’ll get a SUGA merch set for free! 💜 Even if it’s not a birthday event period, you can still get cute BTS goodies just by dining here. After your meal, head to the counter and say the name of your favorite BTS member—you’ll get a random goodie in return! 😉

Just behind the HYBE building, this café feels like it was made for BTS fans. It was already full of SUGA fans from all over the world—like a mini ARMY community! The space is covered in SUGA posters, birthday decor, and photo cards. One wall is filled with post-it notes from fans, and reading them honestly tugs at your heart. 💜

At Black Drum, the SUGA combo comes with a drink, cookie, and a bunch of goodies—keyring, A4 poster, 3 photo cards, 6 stickers, a photomatic strip, and even a lucky charm-style photo card! You can choose from peach iced tea, lemon mint tea, or drip bag coffee. The combo is KRW 12,000. They’re also still selling the J-Hope Set, celebrating his birthday from February 18!

During the birthday event, the first 50 visitors each day get a free acrylic keyring! Here’s what you get when you simply order a drink— a clear file, lenticular postcard, A4 banner, transparent photo card, three double-sided photo cards, a tin case, paper cup, and even a bottled drink with Suga on top! BORAHAE forever 💟

This cafe is a must-visit if you're an ARMY! You seriously can’t just walk past them. Inside, high-resolution BTS music videos play on loop, and the space is packed with birthday decorations. Check out the video below for a peek inside! 👀

Marine Coffee is located just to the right, across the cafe, Black Drum. It feels like a cozy little hideout made just for ARMY! 💜 After you order a drink, head up to the second floor—there’s a mini BTS SUGA exhibition waiting for you. The walls are filled with fan messages, photo cards, and a video clip playing nonstop!

You have to order one drink at Marine Coffee, and with that, you’ll get the basic birthday freebies: a cup sleeve, postcard, photo card, sticker, and pin badge!
