To gain access to the cafe, attendees must visit the Weverse table during the operating hours. They must verify their attendance at the exhibition by presenting their ARMY US Membership alongside a valid photo ID.
Membership verification will be conducted using a mobile membership card to confirm the expiration date. Members can check their mobile cards through the Weverse app by tapping “More” on the bottom right and then “My Membership.” Attendees need to ensure that their ARMY US membership card is active.
Once verified, participants will receive one postcard, a random track poster, and a button, all while supplies last.
