LAFC is bringing K-pop energy to the Audi 2025 MLS Cup Playoffs thanks to a new partnership with HYBE, marking the first-ever collaboration between the entertainment giant and Major League Soccer. For soccer and music fans looking to tune in, we’ve compiled everything you need to know to watch the match online as well as how to shop Son Heung-Min LAFC merch. Tonight’s collaboration honors the deep connection between Los Angeles and South Korea and the Korean culture that plays a major part in the city’s identity. BMO Stadium, LAFC’s home, is no stranger to Korean culture, as the venue has quickly become a staple location of major K-pop tours. Most recently, SEVENTEEN played two shows at BMO as part of their “NEW_” world tour. As part of the sponsorship, fans can enjoy Korean-inspired eats while enjoying a choreographed light show set to HYBE artist tracks at today’s match. “We’re honored to be chosen as HYBE’s first Major League Soccer partner. At LAFC, we know the power of passionate fan culture, and HYBE shares that same energy and commitment,” says LAFC Co-President Larry Freedman. LAFC shared an announcement last week across social media with a video cut to BTS’ 2017 hit “MIC Drop,” a track that got the group their first track to reach the top 40 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
