Write for allkpop!

Have you ever wanted to write for allkpop, and be a part of the team, all while making extra money on the side? Well, here is your chance!

We are currently looking for dedicated and talented writers that can fulfill the following criteria:

- Comfortable with writing 2 to 3 stories daily.
- Witty and humorous.
- Can use any image editing programs that are capable of cropping images to specific dimensions.
- Must be able to translate from Korean to English.
- Preferably located in Asia, but not mandatory - so long as you never sleep.

If you think you have what it takes, please send your application to .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) with the subject line "allkpop application," and include the following information:

- Full name, age and location.
- Skill sets (ex: Photoshop, Illustrator, Final Cut, etc.)
- 2 sample stories including pictures, with one of the pictures being a 300x300 cropped image.

Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to write in a particular style to write for allkpop - you just have to be a kick ass writer. So what are you waiting for? Positions will be filled quickly, don't miss your chance!

I wish I can sign up for it, but I live in America and I don’t know any Korean! I visit Cambodia for two months during the summer, does that count? Cambodia is becoming a Korean music fan too… I hope you’ll answer this question for me~!

Summer Time!'s avatar

Read the fourth and fifth requirements and was like ‘well dang >.>’...I’m witty though lol

 
no avatar

Any hardcore shinee fan? lol. But it would be more entertaining if writers are antis! bwahaha!

 
tokio's avatar

all i ask is pick good writers, real writers!  one example alvin aka coolsmurf. I don’t want to read more recycled old jokes that constantly repeated by the same writer or different writers. Allkpop used to be so much better, i miss the older writers. hopefully we get a bunch of good writers with this.

 
Nix's avatar

i’m going to try out… though i dun think i’ll ever match up with poopiness or any of the other writers

 
iJellyx's avatar

@27 - -  Totally agree!

Not based in Asia and can’t translate Korean into English.
So I guess I’ll just wish all future writers good luck :D

 
sunnykiss's avatar

Can’t read korean.

DAMN.

+ PLEEASSSSSSSSSSE~ don’t hire another SNSD bias writer.

 
chris2I40's avatar

Isnt it obvious that Korean - English is a must? this is a Kpop website. Hence we change english for the international followers, which I assume makes up an enormous majority. Anyways HOW MUCH MONEY ON THE SIDE ? smile smile

 
Lucy Miao's avatar

Agreed.  The main reason I come here is because of articles from coolsmurt.  Been a big fan of his since his YouTube days, and I was happy to see him on allkpop too.  He’s one of the very few writers on allkpop that really knows how to write enjoyable articles without having to resort to either shock value or lame humor.


@non-Korean speakers complaining about requirement

OH C’MON!  Of course you have to know how to translate Korean to English

 
smith's avatar

go throw money at *!

 
pangstar's avatar

yeaaaah coolsmurf is really awesome at these articles, other than that i really don’t have a reason to be here on allkpop.
ouu korean ;D maybe i’ll try out bahah, for fun tho. D;

 
melo_melonade's avatar

Boo..I can try talking like a Korean, but hell, i can’t understand what they’re saying! xDDD

 
Keme's avatar

How i wish i could understand korean language.. Im a filipino but im a big fan of some korean artist..

 
no avatar
