On May 3, 2025, T-POP fans, especially BEUS from Indonesia, to go viral on social media of TPOP in Thailand itself. A group lead by the Twitter/X account @xthatxx1 organized the Noraebang #ITS_TPOP_PARTYTIME” event which took place at Lotte Alley, Lotte Shopping Avenue LG-F, Jakarta, Indonesia turned out to be a huge success and incredibly exciting. Various fandoms joined together, singing together, shouting fanchants for each artist/group when their songs were played, and this was certainly a breakthrough for the TPOP world.
Noraebang, meaning “song room” or “singing room” in South Korea, refers to a popular karaoke experience in South Korea. 노래 (norae) which means “song” and the word 방 (bang) which means “room”.
TPOP itself actually entered Indonesia in 2019. However, only a group of people hyped TPOP. However, T-POP became increasingly famous in Indonesia in 2024, where many T-POP groups debuted that year, especially BUS because of you i shine.
BUS’s popularity in Indonesia began to rise after release their comeback song “LIAR” and the viral fanchant for their song “Watch Your Step,” which was choreographed by Nong Mind in a super cute and charming way. “LIAR” is also known as a breakthrough hit for BUS that caught significant attention in Indonesia. Their appearance at the Asia Artist Awards 2024 also made an impression on Indonesian fans. This was evident from an Indonesian tweet that read: “out of focus about lineup AAA 2024, there is a BUS that turns out to be a Thai boy group. Can you tell more about BUS to me, please?”
The number of BEUS (BUS fans) in Indonesia continues to grow, as evidenced by the loud chants and enthusiasm of fans during the “T-POP PARTY TIME” event. The attendees not only sang along, they also exchanged gifts, brought banners and posters featuring BUS members, and made this event a promotional event for BUS in Indonesia. Several photos and videos circulating on Twitter/X prove how popular BUS is in Indonesia, and how great BEUS community is in Indonesia.
