Birthday support culture at a glance
In K-pop, J-pop, C-pop, and VTuber fandoms, fans celebrate an artist’s birthday with public projects. The most common ones:
- Cupsleeve events and birthday cafés — a café is decorated for the day, drinks come in custom cup sleeves, and fans pick up free goods.
- Billboard and subway ads — a birthday message on a digital billboard or in a subway station, usually crowdfunded by a fan base.
- Donation projects — donations made in the artist’s name to a charity, shelter, or tree-planting program.
- Photo booth frames — a custom birthday frame on photo booth machines; anyone who takes a photo joins in.
