About bubble for JAPAN

"Bubble" is a fan communication platform that brings together artists from around the world, with a focus on Korea.
It has gained a lot of support globally through a two-way communication experience that allows artists to directly communicate their current feelings and fans to respond.
For artists, it is a safe space where only their fans can gather, and for fans, it is a closed environment where their messages cannot be seen by others, so both parties can enjoy themselves naturally, which is highly appreciated.
"bubble for JAPAN," which launched its service in June 2024, has been used by a wide range of artists, from music artists such as Mrs. GREEN APPLE, Shibuya Subaru, Novelbright, and MIYAVI, to idols such as SKE48, and talents, models, voice actors, and YouTubers such as Yabuki Nako, Fujita Nicole, and Kasu.

In addition, the service offers features optimized for the Japanese market, such as member discounts through ID linking with the fan club operated by Fanplus, support for various online payments, and event ticket sales in collaboration with Ticket Plus and Ticket Plus Trade, offered by group company Ticket Plus, as a special offer exclusive to bubble subscribers, providing a highly convenient experience for Japanese entertainment fans.
