PLAVE reaches a new status as a virtual idol group
Share

PLAVE is a virtual idol group that debuted with their album, “Asterum: The Shape of Things to Come” in 2023. Despite the K-Netizens weren’t fully convinced of having a virtual boy band, the boys have thrived against all odds.

On February 3, PLAVE made their comeback with their new mini-album, “Caligo Pt. 1” and its title track, “Dash.” Fortunately, the boys met commercial success after Hanteo Chart revealed their latest music project sold an impressive total of 1,038,308 copies within the first week of its release (February 3 to 9).

The boys nearly doubled PLAVE’s previous first-week sales record of 569,289 set by their 2024 mini album “ASTERUM : 134-1.” PLAVE has officially joined the “million seller” club and became the first virtual idol group to reach this milestone!
