■What is AWA Lounge?
This is an online space where users can enjoy playing music and interacting with each other in real time.
Using the “Song Request”, “Chat”, and “Stamp” functions, users who enter the same room can experience an online karaoke room-like experience, and all functions can be enjoyed on the Free plan.
Another major feature of this lounge is that all users in the room can watch the same music at the same time, so it can be used as a place to “support” to increase the number of views of your favorite artists. If you join the lounge as a STANDARD member, you will receive more rewards to the artists.
