Inspiration

Saw a huge Problem in the current K-Pop Production system: 1) Tremendous Resource Waste (5+ Years and 100s of MUSD to train & manufacture a single group) 2) Gamble Factor (99.9% fail utterly)

Why K-Pop? K-Pop isn’t just a music genre, but a very unique BM that builds upon the economy of fandom based on integrative contents business

Solution

Interactive test-bed platform that 1) Match-makes aspiring K-Pop Performers and music producers, giving more autonomy and direct access to potential collaborators and resources 2) Enables to test their marketability out, through real-time fan-enabled voting system on the collaborated contents

Key Features

1. Profile Dashboard : Aspiring performers can find the amateur music producers and vice versa, where the Self-Production gets enabled through direct access to talent pool

2. Matchmaking : Many of the aspiring performers have passion yet no knowledge what to expect & where to look to to pursue they passion, thus platform provides excellent place where to “start”, by matchmaking and recommendations individual combinations to collaborate with based on preferences questionnaire

3. Voting & Real-time Ranking : Provides real-time testbed to check the reaction of the market for different contents the performers publish through showing the relative ranking compared to other aspiring performers

Business Model & Future Vision:

Narrowly: monetizing from the vote Giving incentives such as special videos & exclusive merch Broadly: Having access to the future talent pool with high supply & the first mover to filter “proven” to be successful, turning them into Intellectual Property
