What is AWA Lounge? AWA Lounge is an online space where users can enjoy sharing music and interacting in real-time. Using features like "song requests," "chat," and "stamps," users in the same room can have an experience similar to an online karaoke room, with all functions available even on the Free plan.

Another major feature is that in the Lounge, all users in the room listen to the same music simultaneously, making it a great place to "support" your favorite artists by increasing their play counts. Participating in the Lounge as a STANDARD member contributes more to the artists.
