Christmas is almost here, which means it's time for our first annual Secret Santa!
What is a Secret Santa, you ask? It's quite simple; You get assigned a person and their 3 biases, and you make them an extra nice gifset of whichever bias of theirs you'd like to edit. Feel free to get creative, there's no set format for these gifsets!
🎄 Sign up here 🎄
Exact details under the cut, but you can find them on the form as well. Note that because we’re a male idol dedicated blog, the presents will be edits of male idols. Please do not apply if you don’t want to edit male idols
Secret Santa gifts should be posted between December 20th and December 25th, 2022.
When you go to post the edit, make sure you tag it as #kpopco so we see it. Feel free to make the description text something like 'SECRET SANTA ↳ InsertBiasName for @insertmemberurl'
For example:
SECRET SANTA
↳ Choi Yeonjun for @yeeonjun
If you don't think you will be able to make your edit in time, please do not apply. It is not fun when you sign up and make someone a present and then never get one in return.
The month is wrapping up, but there’s still time to partake in The Inspiration Challenge!
💜 About the event
During the month of July, we are joining forces with @kpopcontentcreatorsclub and @girlgroupnetwork to invite creators across KPOPblr to create content for the editors who inspired them to keep creating.
✨ LEARN MORE UNDER THE CUT ✨
💜 How to participate
Create a post for fellow creators who inspire you.
In the text of the post, tag other creators to do the same.
Use the tag #theinspirationchallenge in the first 5 tags of your post so participating networks can reblog your creation.
💜 Who is invited to participate, and what should they create?
Anyone is welcome to participate whether they have been tagged or not. You can create gifs, gfx, moodboards, fanfics, fanarts, or any other form of creative content for any Korean idol or artist within the KPOP industry.

At KPOPCO, we try to support boy groups big and small, but sometimes it’s hard to pick smaller groups to edit.
Below is a list that our members reference when they want to show some love to lesser known groups. Feel free to reference it and tag #kpopco in your edits so we can reblog!
