Former Enhypen member Evan to open themed pop-up store in Seoul

Singer Evan, formerly Heeseung of Enhypen, will open a pop-up store next Wednesday in Seongdong District, eastern Seoul, built around Gliddy, a skateboarding character based on his persona, his agency Belift Lab said Thursday.

The pop-up, held at Kasina Seongsu, will run through Nov. 3.

The space will recreate the imaginary music-filled world where Gliddy inhabits.

Visitors and fans can purchase Gliddy-themed merchandise, including key rings, pouches and carpets. Customers can claim a photo card and a ticket to take a photo in a photo booth based on their purchase amount.

The character was first unveiled before Evan released his first EP, “Death of Me,” in August.

Early-bird reservations for entry opened at 11 a.m. Thursday on Weverse.

Evan first debuted in November 2020 as a member of the seven-member boy band Enhypen under HYBE's Belift Lab. In March, Evan left the band to pursue a solo career.
