1. Join the fancafe here: http://m.cafe.daum.net/OfficialBJY - on the app, just copy the URL into the search bar and it’s the first link. (You must have a DAUM account in order to join any fancafe - it’s fairly easy to register: you can sign up using kakotalk if you have one, or you can register through the DAUM server - here’s a tutorial on that). The fancafe should look something like this:

-I’ve already joined, but if you haven’t yet, the bottom bar will have an option that says ‘Join.’ -The fancafe will then ask you to create a nickname, which is different from the username you use to login to DAUM. It can be anything you’d like as long as it’s not already taken and adheres to the following rules: -No names that can be confused as Jinyoung or managers or the company -Have a minimum of 2 characters, no more than 10 -No spaces -No special characters -No nicknames that are only vowels or only consonants -No nicknames that imply coupling with another artist -No vulgar language -No nicknames written in a language besides Korean or English (Does not specify if you can mix the two languages, but most fancafes do not allow that so I would recommend against it) -You also have the option to set a profile picture, but it is not necessary. If you do choose to set one, it can be of anything; just avoid using pictures that involve other artists who are not Bae Jinyoung. (Yes, even the C9BOYZ or Wanna One. You are allowed to mention them on the fancafe, but avoid having them in your profile picture or username just to be safe) I’d advise just setting one of Jinyoung’s pictures; he takes plenty of beautiful selfies! -Turn all notifications on! If you forget to do so when signing up, you can change your notification settings later, but turning them on now saves you some work later.  

2. Navigate to the level up board by clicking the three vertical lines in the corner and scrolling down to find 정회원 등업신청. Note that your nickname and profile picture will appear on the bottom.

Click on it, and it’ll look something like this:

Click write at the bottom and make a post in this format: your name / your birthdate (yyyy.mm.dd) / your nickname / your daum ID / your location -All of the information you enter must be the same as what you entered when signing up. Here’s a tutorial on how to check your info and register your birthday if you did not when signing up: x (This tutorial uses the ‘DAUM’ app, but instructions are the same on the web at https://www.daum.net/) Your birthday and gender must be registered with DAUM so the fancafe staff can check your info and approve your application. If you don’t remember registering all of the above info, I highly recommend checking that tutorial to make sure all of your info is there and matches up.  -If when you signed up, you entered your name and ID in English, make sure they are in English when applying! Do not type them in Hangul unless you did so when signing up. -Your location is your country, and can be typed in English or Hangul, but I would recommend Hangul. (USA is 미국 in Hangul)

Here’s an example of a correct post:

Set your post settings to secret: tap the circle with the down arrow after you’ve finished making your post, then tap the gear, and turn the secret setting on. 

Now click post, and you’re done! To ensure that your post has been made, search for your username or nickname in the 정회원 등업신청 board.

You can edit your post by clicking on it, and then clicking the three dots at the bottom right.

3. Go back to the home page of the fancafe, click the three vertical bars, and then click the gear at the bottom right. 

Make sure your other settings match the following:  -Privacy: ID, Gender/Age, Last Visit should all be set to managers. -Receive Messages: Email and Group Message should be on. They should look like this:

4. All that’s left to do is wait! It may take a couple days to a few weeks in order for the fancafe staff to get to your application. Do not make additional application posts until you receive a notification indicating that you have failed. If you’ve made a mistake on your post, go back to the 정회원 등업신청 board and search for your username to find your post. You can then edit or delete your post as necessary. 

If the fancafe staff approve your application, you should get a notification that looks like this:

This means that you’ve successfully leveled up, and now have access to more boards and can now view Jinyoung’s posts! 

If you fail the application, your notification will look something like this: 

This means that there was something wrong with your application, usually that your nickname either violated the rules, your info is wrong, or that your settings are incorrect. Click on the notification to find out what specifically is wrong, and then you can reapply by making a new post.
