download Kakaotalk or Line (I prefer Kakaotalk personally), and get your students to do the same.
Link to Kakao on the Google Play store. Both have Apple versions too: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kakao.talk&hl=en_US
unlike Whatsapp, once you have them installed they give you a user ID or even a QR code that the students can use to add you as 'friends'. so you can message them via that without having to ever give them your phone number.
both also have the ability to send files, and both have desktop versions that you can install which makes typing and sending messages so much easier.
just create a group chat for each of your classes and ask the students to join. post messages and announcements in the group chat. If you don't want to be bothered outside of regular working hours, you can mute all notifications from the group.
Whatscrapp is so far behind the times it's not even funny.
ps. the emoticons on Kakaotalk are fucken GREAT, your students will love them.
First of all, you must make a reservation.
You can book the date and time in the link below.
Second, after HHPP opened LoR theme, only adult can enter the store. 5 minutes before your reservation time, the staffs will announce precautions when using the store and check the ID card to prove that you're an adult. But driver license or passport would be ok i guess.
Third, when you enter the store, you will order the food with Kiosk. The numbered ticket and the alarm that your food is ready is send to KakaoTalk.
Actually, I didn't see any non-Korean who visit HHPP so I'm not sure this would be helped. But as someone who visited HHPP, those are what I needed.
FYI, character acrylic is gacha. One pull for 10$.
kakao talk This is what the members use amongst themselves. They've mentioned they have a private group chat with each other and they've posted screenshots of their kakao talk conversations on social media before.
