Pops in Seoul, airing from 1998 to 2021, has presented Korean pop music for the past eleven years on the network Arirang TV. The show's VJ presented current music, news about K-pop culture, and provided overseas viewers with the latest Korean pop music and information. Former host Daniel of DMTN was caught up in a drug scandal and as a result, stepped down March 13, 2013, being replaced by BtoB's Peniel. On August 18, 2013, Wonder Girls member Lim became the show's newest host. On March 10, 2014, Lim officially stepped down from her duties and was succeeded by five new hosts.

Each day of the week featured different segments, including new music videos, and a closer look at stars on Mondays with Skarf's leader Tasha, the latest K-pop news and a look back at past music on Tuesdays with Nak Hun, up-and-coming stars on Wednesdays with Electroboyz's 1kyne, an interview with top stars on Thursdays with Blady's Coco (in which they pick their own questions), and the top 20 songs of the week on Fridays with Sam Ku. On June 4, 2018, Samuel became host of the show. On July 1, 2019, Felix of Stray Kids took over as the new host. A.C.E's Kim Byeongkwan was the last MC from January 6, 2020 to March 31, 2021.

The final episode of this series was aired on March 31, 2021 to conclude the program. The show is available on Viki, with subtitles in multiple languages.
