The building is fairly easy to locate; however it is only open to the general public for special events. The office also organizes a number of exhibitions from time to time, so you may visit the place during any of the shows besides strolling now and then to see the WM stars.
6. Cube Entertainment Building
Situated in Seongsu District in Seoul, this building is Cube Entertainment’s headquarters. It was previously located in the Cheongdam area but has now relocated to this location. The office is on the seventh story of the current building, with the second floor dedicated to newcomer training. The Cube café called 20 Space is located on the first level and is a great place to spend some quality time.
If you happen to be in the area at the right name, you may spot the Cube stars like CLC, Beast, BtoB, and Roh Jihoon. Who knows, you may be fortunate enough to receive a handshake or a signature from them as well. However, parking at this place is scarce most of the time, so it is best to use public transport while visiting the Cube headquarters.
Well, enjoy celebrity gazing and we hope you catch a glimpse of your favorites outside any of these K-pop entertainment buildings in Seoul!
