This is a Japanese KTV chain on Manhattan Island, with three branches in Ktown, East 48th Street and West 53rd Street. It charges per person per hour. It is also more expensive on weekends and after 8 pm. The private rooms are divided into small, medium and large, and the largest room can accommodate 35 people. The song library has 20,000 English songs, 88,000 Japanese songs, 8,200 Chinese songs, 27,000 Korean songs, as well as Vietnamese songs, Latin songs, Filipino songs and Indonesian songs.
The songs are updated every month, but they are still mainly English and Japanese songs. The drinks are relatively affordable, and the average price of a cocktail is $6~$7. However, there is a criticism of Japanese and Korean KTVs that the song ordering system is relatively old, and you need to flip through a thick song book and enter the number to order a song. I remember that the Korean KTV in the village during college ordered songs like this. There was no genuine MV, and all the music played was scenery and the animal world.
According to the latest news, all three branches have updated many equipment systems, so they are more modern than before. The room decoration is relatively simple and clean, after all, the price is affordable. If you are addicted to singing but don’t want to go too far or you are a Japanese song lover, Karaoke Duet is a good place to go.
