About this game
Rise to the top of the K-pop charts, become the next sensation, and earn the love of fans.Lead your group to stand out and conquer the hyper-competitive music scene. In this one-of-a-kind idol life simulator, step into the shoes of a powerful manager and shape your girl group’s destiny on their journey to the Hall of Fame.
Step into the spotlight behind the scenes! Build your dream idol group as you scout rising stars, shape their weekly schedules, and guide their journey to fame. Mix work, training, and downtime to help your idols shine their brightest, while you enjoy the thrill of creating a superstar career you can’t experience in real life.
Your decisions extend far beyond management. The relationships you build and the choices you make will define your group’s future. Whether you’re offering unconditional support, navigating rivalries, or representing your group in the public eye, every action has consequences. Randomized events mirror the unpredictable challenges of the real K-pop industry, testing your judgment at every turn.
Your ultimate goal? Debut. Along the way, your trainees will face off against rivals in thrilling, RPG-style battles that will prove whether they have what it takes to shine. Once your group is ready, you’ll choose their signature look, define their fan club identity, and produce a debut album that captures their essence.
The road to debut isn’t an easy path, but it’s where every dream begins, and every step you take becomes a story worth remembering.
