Virtual South Korean K-pop girl group MAVE: gives a glimpse into the future of the metaverse

Avatary Mave zabija duszę człowieka.

A definite NO to virtual artists, musicians etc.

Wait I thought K/DA was first virtual idol group

But Riot games already did similar stuff for their Tournament opening was it? The K:DA. Unless the focus was the new technology used for this one and I totally missed the point by focusing on the girls :x

Ask ChatGPT to write their next hit

So this is life in 2023? Interesting.

usually korean idols look "basically the same" now they actually look the same

1st Virtual Idol: Hatsune Miku
1st Vtuber Idol: Kizuna AI
1st Vtuber Agency: Hololive
1st Virtual Kpop Team: Mave

Forgotten Idol: Polar (1st Metaverse Idol)
Causes: Controversial about Ripoff Miku

Tbf, they look just as soulless as any other idol group. So, its not like the mark was up or anything

What !!!??? They are not even real.. I'm so shocked cause I really love their song pandora

Japan already did it better with Vtubers doing live concerts

tbh, at least this way the girls wont have to have those horrible life decisions and work with the music company

Metaverse vs Vocaloid wonder who would win?

They still look computer generated, though it won't be long before it won't be possible to tell the difference.

AESPA: we have Avatars in our group

MAVE: hold our maekju

hatsune miku did it first

I thought the first one is the K/DA

The virtual look nice but i don't think we need a virtual to sing and dance for us we also need humans too. I only worried what if virtual or robots will take over the world...

METAVerse is dead because it's too corporate. Yeah not literal dead but it's definitely bleeding users. Also where's the fun in that when we can just have fun in VRChat or watch vtubers they're more fun and engaging.

Maybe I’m getting too old but I don’t understand the point of a virtual celebrity

Trivia : MAVE: ZENA IS A VIDEO GAME CHARACTER

Virtual cr@p wil never replace Blackpink lol

Nooooo how are we gonna determine who's the sunshine of the group?😭
They look soulless!

Just like most sci fic movies everything is becoming virtual. I'm excited and anxious about the situation.

🗿💀 idk,you guys like hologram?

So basically their own Jem and the Holograms, Hatsune Miku... And Pixel Perfect movie..

Weren't vocoloids the first to do this? They're basically the same ( at least for me). Just the Korean version is more realistic, while the Japanese version is animelike.

😂

Nah man it doesnt look great

Manga art and now K-pop....what is happening to real human touch art?

The poor people who originate the voices behind those ai characters arent even recognize or given credits to like the miku hatsune ai character.

So this is just Facebook...

This world is getting more dystopian every day... and I'm saying this as a Gen Z.

Still not natural enough

No worries. Have the K-Pop artist assist in content and NL of AI. Thus, getting some royalties.

The eyes are still soulless for now. If they manage to capture the eyes right and make the AI self aware It would be awesome.

Aespa is the true metaverse kpop history no one can beat them..

As if hundreds of K-Pop girl groups aren't enough, you also have to invent virtually. This makes no sense. There aren't many K-Pop girl groups that make an impression and stick around for long, most get lost in the crowd and barely have a profile. Their average half-life time is one to two years. Just only a few groups leave a deep impression and are highly recognizable. Quality is better than quantity.

K/DA exists

Our world is already illusory. Now it's illusory plus virtual...

Vajra Sutra says: All worldly phenomena Are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows; Like dew and like lightning. We should contemplate them thus.

The things of this world are no more real than a dream; they are as ephemeral as bubbles, as intangible as shadows. They are as fleeting as the morning dew and flashes of lighting which disappear in the blink of an eye. Regarding them in this way, we will be able to see through them and let go of them. If we continue clinging to them, we won't be truly free. We should relinquish our attachments to pleasant as well as unpleasant events. We can be truly free only when every last bit of attachment is gone. by the Venerable Master Hsuan Hua

If the trend continues, this will replace humans in the KPOP industry. With Ai, they will even have interviews and answer questions.

This is not music.

Japan did it first with holographic idols and Riot already did it with KDA.

This is cool and all but I don't think it's ever gonna have the strong bond between a real idol and it's fans cause it just feels more real and I don't think an ai idol can replicate that in my opinion

Wait... KDA doesn't count?

No plastic surgery needed.

From plastic to metaverse 🤔

The bright side is, at least no one can sexually assult, or cyber bully them until they commit suicide. Seriously I wish Korea learn to treasure valuable lives of young idols and performers. They have a low birth rate already.

Death of music and talent. Rise in low self esteem among the youth.
