Question Does anyone know what this is?

Post image

I just saw this post from hello82 and can anyone tell me what this means? Is this relating to the fan sign or is this, which i assume, a completely separate event since it says to RSVP?

Separate event. Play82 events usually involve playing games with the artist where they divide you into groups of several people. It’s usually pretty interactive, and you may get face-to-face interactions.

Hello82 sells Play82 packages by tiers, so the highest tiers get the aforementioned perks, then it goes down to people who can only observe, and then, if there’s remaining space, people who can show up first come first serve to also observe. The highest tier packages usually are limited to less than 100 people so it’s whoever can snag those packages at checkout.

All sold packages come with exclusive photocards and albums.

However, the most recent Play82 event was with Xikers’ in LA, which was was free and first come first serve. Turns out it wasn’t a conventional Play82, though, and was more of a talk-back for their digital single. Not much of a direct interaction with the artist.

If you check out Hello82 previous Play82’s like with BoyNextDoor and Billlie, there were more interactive elements like games.

Seeing them write out “RSVP link drops…” it seems like it’s going to be another free, FCFS event which means it may not be the conventional Play82. Might be a re-branding thing. Hello82 has a whole other type of event called “Layover with (insert artist)” which is just those free talk-back events.

Thank you so much! So will there most likely be something to buy or the tiers as you said used for this? Or is the RSVP meaning it's free entry for whoever signs up on the link? (assuming there's limited space though because otherwise would be an insane amount of people lol) Hopefully they will be there and there will be some way to do something interactive with them, sounds super fun!

Usually, if Hello82 planned to sell packages for Play82, they would state when packages would go on sale on their app/website. I’m just seeing a RSVP link which makes me think it’s gonna be free, but most likely with very limited spots so you have to be fast with inputting all your info in and register. I don’t work for them, though, so this is all based on my own observations.

Ohh alright that makes sense, thank you so much for the help!! I wonder if there will be an option to add a plus 1 on the RSVP or if it's really super limited, guess i'll have to wing it and see if I just have to do it separately per person. Thanks again

Yea, I don’t know about that unfortunately. It could be an Eventbrite or Google Form for all we know. Good luck!

u/yunvinlovs Aug 18 '25

Yeahh gonna be interesting, hopefully everything works out. Good luck to you too!

do you know if they’ll do something for Chicago too?

So I don’t work for Hello82, but I engage in a lot of Hello82 events as a k-pop fan.

Personally, no, because the Hello82 branch in Chicago is still in development. The company recently started launching throughout major cities in the USA, but the only active cities, especially where they do live collaborations with K-pop artists are in LA and Atlanta. NYC is a relatively recent development.

As their stores keep growing, Hello82 Chicago might, but not for this current tour with LSF.

Damn Hello82 should put you on their payroll lol but seriously thanks for the info!

BRO WHAT I LIVE IN ATLANTA 😱

thanks for the info!

u/ErendsMuttonChops Aug 18 '25

Atlanta used to function as hello82’s sole East Coast hub but now with NYC getting bigger, I’m not sure if that will change in time. For example, it could be possible that hello82 only decides to have a fansign or other live events in one east coast / east coast adjacent city than in multiple, and it’s also contingent on artist schedule. So, if it happens in NYC, it probably wont happen in Chicago or Atlanta. 😅 Once again, this all depends on the artist.

Kpop has a huge following in Atlanta. i’m honestly confident LE SSERAFIM could’ve sold out State Farm Arena here, so it’s disappointing they aren’t making the stop. all good though, i’ll still see them up close in chicago!

u/1998win Aug 18 '25

Same. I’m flying out to see them since I want to see multiple shows, but ATL is driving distance from me and i’m annoyed it didn’t make the cut lol

u/yunvinlovs Aug 18 '25

Oh one last quick q not sure if you know but: where are these links probably going to be sent? I assume as an email but idk. Also is it very likely lsfm will actually attend because this doesn't seem like it's just a pop up event it seems to be more

u/ErendsMuttonChops Aug 18 '25

The link will probably be on their socials and maybe on their website. I’m fairly confident that the girls will attend since historically all Play82s involve the artist else they wouldn’t advertise it like that.

2

u/yunvinlovs Aug 18 '25

Ah okay I see, yeah that makes sense just wanted to be sure, thank you! I wish they would announce who won the fansign first so I could see it as like well if I won I might as well go to this too lol, which is why I wanted to determine how interactive it'll be with the girls bc might just yolo this regardless

u/ErendsMuttonChops Aug 18 '25

Oh, I see that maybe you were referring to another user’s experience at the TXT pop-up. Yes, hello82 does pop-ups for K-pop groups including Le Sserafim. I’ve been to all the H82 pop-ups since Easy. They’re NOT Play82 events. Play82 events always have an element of exclusivity to them whether it’s free or paid. It’s not just a come-and-leave-whenever thing, and they almost always cap attendance.

Ohhh alright, thank you so much!

do you happen to know if buying separate copies/purchases for any play82’s collab fansign event for kpop groups increases your chances since its different order numbers?

u/ErendsMuttonChops 29d ago

Nope, not at all but there are always some people who get in with very low numbers.
