Soompi – K-Pop & K-Drama News Reviews

by PunishMeSenpai

I LOVEEEEE Soompi so much only problem is I don’t get notifications for everything ?? Can we get an update where we can get notified for everything? I get notifications for certain things but not everything on Soompi. Whenever I get notified on a certain post i scroll down and there are some post that say it was posted like 5 minutes ago but I never got the notification for it so can you please update it where we can get notified for everything on Soompi that is the only complaint i have that is why I rate it so low.

I really like Soompi because it updates me on a lot of things I didn’t know before but idk what’s wrong with it. I have to login again every time I go back to Soompi and because of this I don’t get any notifications from them. Also when I try to change my profile pic it keeps saying try again so I exit Soompi and go on it again and suddenly the new profile pic is there.

It’s fine for what it is, however, if an actor/actress has a show on a streaming platform other than viki, then you won’t see that show on their credits. So, it’s just incomplete as a news source. And you can’t zoom in on any photos?!?!?

I really love Soompi , but now, it’s getting 50/50. About a month or two ago, it started closing on its own while I’m in the middle of reading an article & whenever there is a new quiz, it won’t let me take it, I have to go online to do it😤please fix it, I’d hate to uninstall it

Recently the this app app is not communicating well with the Facebook app. I can’t log into this app with Facebook because it opens a browser window which tell me to download the FB app which opens Soompi Store which opens the FB app which dies nothing. It’s still usable. I get the articles but I can’t like or bookmark anything. It’s just frustrating. Other apps open the FB app to authenticate rather than a browser window

When I go to check to see if there's new news but there won't be anything there. And I know there is new news because I follow them on twitter and there will be a lot of news that I didn't see on Soompi . Also when I load Soompi sometimes it duplicates articles over and over again when I’m trying to scroll down.

Soompi won’t let me sign in through Facebook, it keeps telling me that Soompi is not set up and is still in development mode. Due to this I can’t save or like any articles or see the ones I’ve already saved.

I wish we could turn on post notifications for specific artists!! I really want to get notified for all news about my faves like Stray Kids but the notifications are random and not related to who you follow which is annoying. Please add this feature!!

Soompi is great.. but I had been experienced with a bug? Basically, about several months ago, I updated Soompi , things went normally. Until one day, a notification popped up, well curiously, I clicked to check the new. Then I quit Soompi , but the red notifications is there.. so I tried to go back to Soompi to see notifications.. but it doesn’t go away.. I tried to wait for updates to fix this but nothing happens.. it seems like I’m only the only one that experienced this. Please fix! It bugged me so much!! Thank you!
And I also tried to uninstall Soompi but the notifications is still there.

this app has everything that a K-Pop lover needs. It has information on Music, K-Dramas, Award shows, and Quizzes. this app writers are very good at putting out facts and not gossip which I appreciate greatly. Thank you this app!

iPad app is ugly , needs to adapt to the iPad interface. Both iPad and iPhone apps need dark mode, please update to dark mode feature. If you can apply dark mode on website it has to be done on smart phones and iPads. Also Once signed in with account , app keeps signing me out, please fix this bug I am tired of signing in over and over again. Let us enjoy Soompi , don’t have us grow tired and delete Soompi for no solution or if bugs not being fixed

Fills me in on things I’m very interested in — Asian stars, dramas, and casting — with news I can’t get anywhere else. Also has fun recommendations and themed articles that offer new shows for me to love. Thanks, this app!

The fun and cute quizzes are entertaining and the articles give up-to-date content. It's fun to just scroll through and see what's going on in real time too.

by MarieHershey

It is such a shame that I have so many technical issues with it because it is fun, informative, and well done. It would be 5 stars without ongoing technical difficulties.

by KittyKumba

this app really is a good app for kpop fans like me and many others. It gives us updates on things like comebacks and more recently Jimin’s donation to the students in Busan. I really love Soompi and I’m sure others enjoy it just as much as I do!

by TookACookie

I love that this app keeps me up to date on all the latest in Korea that I wouldn’t see otherwise. Especially love their drama lists and updates I can always bookmark and look up later so I always have something new to watch!

by White.sand

this is an amazing app and i use it every day. i love how there is korean news in english, as well as fun quizzes, fan clubs, exclusives, voting, etc. huge thank you to the this app team for bringing Soompi to us!! one thing i feel like Soompi is lacking though is individualized notifications. for instance, if someone replied my comment that i left on an article, it would be great if i could be notified of that. or, since we have fan clubs, maybe some notifications if articles that have a certain fan club of ours in them? idk maybe these personalized notifications i’ve been talking about are already a thing, but if they aren’t, it would be a great addition to an amazing app.

This is literally an amazing app! I get my daily information on all Korean news. personally I don’t really have any serious issues with it so it’s pretty fine for me but, I do hate the fact that it doesn’t alert me for specific articles that I would love to see. For example, I added bts to my fan clubs but, I just don’t get alerts unless I open Soompi . Yeah so that’s something you guys should take into consideration

by Taesgirl💜

The writers of the articles are amazing and so specific. This gives me my daily dose of the tea and of all the other stuff I should know but don’t😂 only suggestion is notifications when someone comments to your comment. I feel it necessary to respond to certain comments of my comments at times but I have to go back and find them in order to do so. It is a real pain. That’s an update o hope to someday see:)

That’s right! Dramas not even featured are available here. Wonderful, just go and Search. An example is “Marriage, Not Dating - not on Netflix but it’s in Viki. I recommend to get Viki Pass Plus too for HD viewing.

I didn’t used it until at least 5 months ago, I gave it a try, and i’m always up to date with everything in the kpop and kdrama world 😩
