After School Club, often shortened to ASC, is a South Korean internet based live music request television talk show that was hosted by K-pop idol Eric Nam, who left in April 2016, and co-hosted by Kevin Woo and Park Jimin. Debuting on April 17, 2013, it is produced by Park Jeong-Wo and airs on Arirang TV. ASC features various musical guests of South Korea and the series is directed at an international audience so the principal language is English with Korean subtitles and translations produced on air.[1] It allows international fans of K-pop music to interact directly with the live shows through social media. Fans can join in on the live broadcasts through video chats in Google Hangouts, send in tweets to the show's official Twitter Account. Fans are also able to share comments on the show's official Facebook account and ask questions and request their favourite music videos.[2] The show is also available on Viki (website), a community for subtitles[3] and on Soompi.[4]

Premise and format
The show broadcasts live online and utilizes social media technologies such as Twitter and Google Hangouts to directly interact with international fans. Two activities that take place every episode are the Roll Calls and Hangouts. During the Roll Call portion Twitter users tweet their name, location, the time and generally a short message to the weekly guest. Those that participate may be singled out during the beginning of the episode and given a shout out by the guest. "Hangouts" are typically done twice an episode where some fans are selected for a real-time Google Hangout on the show which usually involves something (such as a song or dance) prepared by the fan to show to the guest(s) and a request. Other activities include prepared performances for fans by the guests, such as impressions, dances, and short parodies.[5]
In March 2014 the show expanded to include a second episode every week known as the After School Club After Show which features other guest appearances and behind-the-scenes footage from the previous episodes.
Current Co-MCs include Kevin of U-Kiss, and Jimin of 15&.
Production team announced on Twitter that After Show is the last for After School Club After Show. Last After Show was on February 25, 2015.
On August 25, 2015 the show announced on Twitter that is on the Naver V application.
