This boozy boba lounge will transform into an immersive Netflix experience this week
Nov 18, 2024
Although we're pretty much over the sort of immersive experiences that seem to have drenched out culture in the last few years, we must admit that this one sounds pretty cool: Koreatown bubble tea and hookah spot Boba Bear has teamed up with Riot Games to bring a piece of Netflix's hit show Arcane to life.

The destination has, in fact, been transformed into a pop-up version of Last Drop Bar from the show now through mid February 2025.
The activation celebrates the release of season two of the show, which is currently streaming on Netflix.

Inside the pop-up at 414 S. Western Avenue #C, guests get to order from a themed menu featuring signature cocktails inspired by the show, including on-alcoholic drinks served in commemorative glowing glass tubes.
Among the soju-themed cocktails on offer, each one costing $14, is the Knuckle Sandwich (a spicy mix of soju, jalapeno, habanero and mango) and the Pow Pow (soju, blue raspberry, honey, lemon juice and pop rocks). Of course, boba drinks are available as well.

As for the look of the look of the destination, expect a LED-lit bar, “Over Zaun” windows and a Jing-inspired photo booth. A variety of daily, weekly and monthly special programming will also be mounted on site.
Needless to say, the intention is to make you feel like you're inside of the show.
The experience is open to folks of all ages and tickets cost $10 across the board. Make sure to make a reservation in advance right here to secure your spot, although walk-ins are also welcome.
