Artificial Satisfaction ‖ The Virtual Boy Group Taking Over Korea 

the creators of this group are really smart going for the manhwa stylized members instead of hyper realistic look to avoid falling into the uncanny valley; i'm glad that this concept of virtual idols can give a chance to talented people who may not adhere to the idol visual/age standard and give the real people behind the characters an opportunity to fulfill their dreams while keeping their privacy also, just like with fifty fifty, thank you Midnight Theories for introducing me to this group

I can definitely see other companies trying to replicate Plave's success but Plave is a very lightning in a bottle type thing. The company has a lot of experience with this tech, apparently enough money to invest in a project like this, and also the skill to pick out this group of guys for this. The members themselves are also amazing as idols, obviously, but them being able to ALSO be entertaining livestreamers really plays a part imo. They really took everything appealing about kpop idols and vtubers and found the perfect way to blend the two. To do that you need to be knowledgable in both areas, which isn't something most other companies can bring to the table.

Thanks for making a video on PLAVE! One of the members, Noah, is a known gymrat and he keeps talking about exercising during live broadcasts and one day he brought up the dumbbell lightstick as a joke. Then for april fools last year, their unveiled a fake dumbbell lightstick as a joke. Months later when VLAST gave fans the option to choose a lightstick design, most fans chose the dumbbell lightstick over the generic shape and that is how the official dumbbell lightstick was born. PLLIs love that it is unique with a special story behind it and we joke about how we're going to end up being the fittest fans after their concerts :).

I love seeing videos about Plave and seeing just how big their getting. All 5 of them are so funny and since their's actual humans behind each of them it makes it so much more entertaining. Also their talent is one to talk about as well, all of them have such talent but Bamby is such an amazing singer, I love his voice. Wishing nothing but the best for them as they grow as artist 😊

it's really a one in a million chance that 5 people with amazing talents, skills, and entertaining personalities, got together and still shine as an idol despite their limitation as virtual group their team really taking this seriously too, not just a tech bro gimmick, they also considering the art, not half-assing and delivering great music, giving great contents and consistently advancing their technology

OMG you made a video about one of my favorite groups!! EVERYONE GO STAN PLAVE THEY MAKE AMAZING MUSIC!! 😤😤

Not their fan but I alwayd see them go viral bc of how funny they are I truly believe theyre the most hillarious group ive seen a while, this makes me want to actually get into them 😄

Oh sheesh! This is what im waiting for. Thank you so much...For real im so proud of these 5 boys. They went through a lot, but they are able to build a safe place for the members...thank you so muccccchhhh

I love Plave so much so thank you for making this video 🫶🏼

(1:02) Ahhh, Girls Reverse…so much missed potential….

I’m so sorry for being 4 days late I’m very happy to see Plave’s popularity in Korea

such a fun concept! Thank you for this video, I had never heard of them until now. Like another comment said, they really hit the nail in the head by making them look like webtoon characters instead of trying to go for the 'hyperrealistic' 3d route. I have a feeling that a lot of their fanbase might be manhwa enjoyers, since it's basically like having 5 main manhwa characters "come to life" as kpop idols, which is very appealing. And props to them for being so involved in the whole creative process ! the little snippets of the songs I heard here sound really really good

Love your new video, midnight but is it just me or does the audio go silent from 8:35 to 8:45?

i really hope the future of kpop isn’t all virtual …

what i like about their models are the cel-shading shadows and how their colors are flat but still look good to look at , AND THE BOUNCE ON THE END OF THE STRAND OF HAIR LIKE I WANT TO EAT THEM

RAHHHHHHH NEW PLLI 🎉🎉🎉

They been on my tiktok fyp since yejun 1st live. But I keep skipped them caused I thought they were vtuber. I'm not really fond with vtubers despite I like anime, danmei, donghua, manga, manwha, manhua, game etc. After they debuted with their 1st song, wait for you. Somehow I keep seeing pink jokkomi on my fyp. Which he keep being loud. In the same time he's real cutiepie. I gave myself one chance to watch one of their content on tiktok. After that, I get hooked! I became a peuldongie. Tho it was hard to do my research on Google. Whenever I typed PLAVE, Google will autocorrected to place. It made me mad. Luckily, I came across few plave content creators on twitter/X & tiktok. So I finally know, who is who. Now, I'm one of their loveable plli. I'm proud that my boisssss get recognition as they deserve everything in terra. They're truly full time comedians, part time virtual idols. Hahahahahahaha! My bias are berriez, bamby & yejun. Hehe💙💜💗❤️🖤

I start liking Plave after listening to Noah's voice in Watch Me Woo, I wish I knew them way earlier😭

I should finally check them out. It would be easier to explain them, than me stunning an idol group that only exists in the novel and manhwa...

I love their music since debut, they’re amazing Can I please join your discord server?

❤❤❤
