About This Game

A K-pop drama – and you make the calls

You run a tiny agency with a rented practice room and a big dream. You discover unknown talent and form your own K-pop group. But backstage it is never quiet: fights in the practice room, secret feelings, a stalker, scandals, rivals, homesickness and injuries. How your group deals with it is up to you – and every decision has consequences.
And debut is only the beginning: three acts take you from the first stage through the national breakthrough to the world tour – then carry on in free play or with the next generation.

Fresh drama every day

  • Something new happens every day – in group chats, story scenes and comics.
  • Your answers change trust, mood and careers. Not every wound heals.
  • Live streams on the fan network Glimr – in Korean with subtitles. Whatever the fans comment, the group hears about it.
  • Story arcs that span many weeks: a secret romance, a stalker, a baby at the office, a bitter rival, the solo question, the world tour and the farewell – with humour and heart, but also serious topics like pressure, exhaustion and loneliness.
  • Seasonal stories that come back every year – like "Night of the Monsters" at Halloween.

Rivals: PULSAR

Starline Entertainment sends its boy group PULSAR into the race. The story arc "Law of Physics" is about rivalry, respect – and maybe friendship. It peaks with a battle in the Countdown Arena: PULSAR dances first in 3D, then your group. The audience decides, and the result changes the story.

Take the stage

Your idols perform on stage in 3D – on the beat, with more than 30 dances from hip-hop and jazz to the moonwalk, dedicated choreographies for story songs, changing formations and a killing part that crowns every comeback. Music videos with their own concept, budget, premiere and locations per song, a music show week against your rivals and a photo mode for the perfect moment.

Your headquarters comes alive – and so does your loft

  • From a rented practice room to your own headquarters: dance studio, styling room, management office – and a music room in the basement with guitar, keyboard, drums and a rhythm mini-game.
  • Your group lives together in the loft: every idol has their own room to visit and decorate.
  • Your idols live here: they train, text on their phones, listen to music, laugh on the sofa or pack parcels in the merch center.
  • Design your own T-shirts for the fans – your group wears them on stage. Collect photocards of your idols in an album.
  • Seasonal themes for office and loft: Halloween, autumn rain and First Snow.



People, not numbers

  • Every member has their own strengths, quirks, dreams and worries.
  • Watch the chemistry – who sticks together, who clashes?
  • Assign roles like main vocal, main dancer, rapper or center, launch solo projects and units – and see what it does to the group.
  • Mix tops, bottoms and shoes from many looks, plus hair colours, make-up and accessories.

Run your agency

  • Plan training, media appearances and breaks every week – or risk someone collapsing.
  • Choose song, concept and budget for every comeback – and after every release, find out exactly why it became a hit or didn't.
  • Three save slots, autosave, free play after the finale and four difficulty levels.

Aurora Edition – more stage, more stories


  • Aurora collection: holographic outfits for all 13 idols that light up with the beat of the show – earned through special milestones.
  • Two new idols: Kai (popping/locking) and Dara (hip-hop/waacking), each with their own voice, story portraits, signature look and Aurora look.
  • Six new songs with their own stage sets for shows and music videos.
  • Story archive and endings: reread scenes and comics you have played at any time; an epilogue shows how your band's stories ended.
  • Free play and records, four difficulty levels from "Relaxed" to "Agency Hell".
