Virtual idol group PLAVE appeared on the special stage 'Show! Music Core in Japan' broadcast on MBC on the 17th, showcasing an impressive performance to local audiences. This stage was PLAVE's first overseas performance, and it was a significant opportunity for them to perform directly for Japanese fans.
PLAVE is a 5-member boy group launched by VLAST, a new media content startup. They utilize 3D avatars, similar to virtual YouTubers (VTubers), and regularly interact with fans through online live broadcasts. After over a year since their debut, PLAVE's YouTube channel has amassed 730,000 subscribers. Along with this popularity, PLAVE has garnered attention as a 'top rookie' by topping the weekly charts on the terrestrial music program 'Show! Music Core' and winning the New Wave Star Award at the Seoul Music Awards.
This Japanese performance held great significance for PLAVE. Despite their unique concept as virtual idols, they successfully completed the stage, receiving enthusiastic cheers from local fans. This demonstrates that PLAVE has successfully captivated global fans beyond South Korea.
After the performance, Japanese fans expressed their admiration for PLAVE's performance on social media. "The stage was as lively as seeing it in person," and "PLAVE's music and performance were truly moving," were among the reactions. Such reactions indicate that PLAVE's global fanbase will continue to expand.
PLAVE is planning an Asian tour, starting with this Japanese performance, and preparing to meet more overseas fans. They are strategizing to strengthen communication with fans through diverse content and stages, solidifying their unique position as virtual idols.
A VLAST official stated, "We are very happy that PLAVE's first overseas performance was successfully completed. We plan to increase opportunities for them to meet fans in various countries in the future." They also added, "We will deliver even greater emotions to fans around the world through PLAVE's unique content and performances."
PLAVE's success demonstrates that virtual idols are becoming a new cultural trend, going beyond mere fad. PLAVE's activities utilizing AI technology and 3D avatars possess a distinctive charm different from traditional idol groups, and they are expected to receive much attention and love in the future.
