Planning on going there soon! Long time ago we went there when they were still charging a membership fee just to go to their store but it has changed name and there’s no more membership fee ! We went there two years ago! I just want to look for their merchandise! The produce and meats are expensive!

The KPOP Center is more elaborate than you might realize. It's a training center for students looking to become an idol in Korea. Many of the instructors actually worked with idols from the Big 4 - and they have a development team to help students decided on a course. They also hold auditions here for several companies including Pledis, Hybe America, Black Label, Kakao, SM, Fantagio, Source and PNation.

@jameshiga8077 3 месяца назад

Hi Chris. Thanks for the nice walking tour. This mall is huge and not easy to make your way around. But sometimes you find some great places when you just wonder around. So many places to try wonderful Korean food. Guess I need to try them all if I'm in the area. Take care.

@DavidLimUX 2 месяца назад

My kids always go here. It had a slow and difficult start when it opened but now it’s pretty popular.

@H-bv1xt 3 месяца назад

I live about 3 miles from there. I’ve never heard of The Source as a Korean Mall, but I have to say it’s a pretty accurate description. I know the city of Buena Park financed it and built it as I used to have a family member who worked for the city. When it first opened and for many years, The Source was very dead. Half of the stores were unoccupied. I had wondered if it was ever going to take off or the community just wasn’t ready to deal with a multistory parking structure. Fortunately the parking lot is nicely designed so you don’t have to circle around 4 times to get to level 4, you just drive straight to 4th floor if the lower levels are busy. I wish all the multilevel parking lots were designed like that. I imagine this design probably yields fewer parking spots. If anyone knows, please let me know.

I used to live just down Orangethorpe from here. I can't believe how much this has been developed. I used to love to go to the different Asian centers around OC like the Vietnamese places in Westminster and the Asian restaurants in Irvine. I'm going to be staying near there in a few months. I think I'll stop by. Thanks Chris!

That seems more of a regular Mall like they all are, it only has korean outlets in there, along with other international stores. Indoor and Outdoor Dining Now Available The Source OC is the home to many delicious restaurants. From South Korea's popular Myrung Rang Hot Dog to the classy Italian Il Fiora, everyone is sure to find a place to satisfy their cravings. Check out our full list of tasty dining options!

I generally get stressed out in malls but there’s a lot of outdoor space. I like the large selection of foods and merchandise and fun places like the indoor playground and movie theatres. I think this mall will be nicer with more seating areas outside for children and older people … more garden spaces/trees for people to chill out between shop visits.

@YellowProductions 3 месяца назад

Agreed that the mall needs more seating

@rogerh2694 3 месяца назад

Lots of seating if not outdoors then at the food courts. Plenty.

@mediaxpuppet 23 дня назад

I grew up just on the other side of the freeway and this sits on the old franklin motel and car wash. Total shithole place that sadly lots of families lived in. The project was announced at the very bottom of the economy and was objected by the old racist locals that dotted the area. Im glad to see it has finally taken hold. Originally was supposed to include condos but there was local opposition and a few homeowners who wouldnt sell. My only critique is the big ugly dead wall facing orangethorpe. This part of town leveled up, apparently.

@YellowProductions 18 дней назад
