Abstract

Abstract In this era, K-pop and K-drama are spread well around the world, including Indonesia. Most of the K-popers and K-drama lovers are teenagers or still in their study. Studying is not only done in the classroom but also from outside of the classroom through some techniques. Every student has their own technique in learning. In this case, K-popers and K-drama lovers learn English vocabulary through their activities. The purpose of this study was to find out how K-popers and K-drama lovers master in English vocabulary and compare their English vocabulary mastery. By using mix-method design, the data was gotten from questionnaire, interview and test. The findings show that the techniques of K-popers and K-drama lovers used English subtitled videos/dramas, chatting with international fans and fangirling over their idols in English language articles to master English vocabulary. Besides, K-popers have higher mastery of English vocabulary than K-drama lovers. Then, the K-popers’ higher mastery of English vocabulary is as high as their intensity of fangirling activities. The implications of this research can be a knowledge for the teacher to give more attention in the learning variations or process of their students.
