Extended Reality
1-minute read
Recently, the Korean pop music scene has been abuzz with controversies amidst its peak season for comebacks. With girl groups like NewJeans, XG, and Aespa making their return, K-pop fans are experiencing a mix of joy and concern, as if they're basking in the contrasting experiences of a sauna. We previously introduced SM Entertainment's metaverse girl group aespa, who have recently dominated Korean music charts with their new song "Supernova" and announced their upcoming virtual room at the grand opening of the K-Pop Hotel on SKT's metaverse platform ifland, which features immersive VR rooms for fans to explore!

The K-Pop Hotel, a 99-floor virtual K-pop hotel created by SK Telecom on the metaverse platform ifland, is designed as a community space for K-pop fans to gather and interact with their idols. Artists can choose their preferred floor to "check into," and the top-tier K-pop group Aespa has taken residence on the highest floor. The artist's lounge also includes a fan space where MY (aespa's fandom) can enjoy Aespa's music videos and other related content together, as well as participate in fan meet events.
On the 99th floor, in addition to individual member VR rooms decorated by each member of Aespa, there are also fan mission events with prizes including autographed copies of the album "Armageddon." MY fans, make sure you don't miss out on this exciting opportunity. According to official news from ifland, upcoming residents of the K-Pop Hotel include boy group RIIZE, 2NE1's Sandara Park, and girl group Triple iz, among others. As a fan, perhaps there's also a chance to look forward to NewJeans joining the lineup?
