The virtual idol group WISHes is taking its first steps into the music industry.
WISHes (Isla, Mmune) will release their first original single 'Dear Moon' today at 12 p.m. through various music streaming sites.
'Dear Moon' is a song that expresses longing and wishes toward the 'moon' through a dreamy yet intense sound, and it is the first dance track attempted by WISHes. WISHes will showcase not only stable vocal skills but also top-notch performance abilities through 'Dear Moon,' proving their broad spectrum.
In particular, a production team actively working in the K-pop scene has come together to enhance the completeness of the work. G.MON, the producer from GRIM Production, which has managed artists like VIXX, gugudan, and VERIVERY, is in charge of WISHes' planning, while the producing team Full8loom, which has worked with TWICE, IZ*ONE, and WJSN, participated in the songwriting and composition, further amplifying the musical synergy.
WISHes is a two-member virtual idol group presented by the subculture specialist label GRIM Production. It has a unique worldview where characters from a game step into the real world to begin a new life as a virtual idol group. WISHes has been steadily communicating with fans through visual novel games, OSTs, and regular broadcast content, and with this single 'Dear Moon,' they are breaking the existing fantasy worldview and embarking on a new journey.
In particular, GRIM Production has emphasized the musical expertise that incorporates the K-pop system from the planning stage of WISHes, as it is now an era where anyone can create avatars using platforms or programs. Through WISHes, GRIM Production is setting a new milestone in the virtual idol market, while currently conducting auditions for the upcoming second-generation virtual idol group 'Saryeonghwa,' which is set to launch in the latter half of this year.
Meanwhile, WISHes' first original single 'Dear Moon' will be released today at 12 p.m. through various music streaming sites. WISHes will conduct a debut commemorative live broadcast at 5 p.m. on the same day, and a 3D music video based on retro and cyberpunk moods is also expected to be released at 6 p.m.
