Plave (Korean: 플레이브; stylized in all caps) is a South Korean virtual boy band formed by Vlast. The group consists of five members: Yejun, Noah, Bamby, Eunho, and Hamin.
1. History
1.1. 2022–2023: Introduction and official debut
Plave was introduced through a live broadcast on its official YouTube and Twitch on September 15, 2022.[7] The group's name is a combination of "play" and "rêve" (French for 'dream').[8] Plave made their official debut on March 12, 2023, with the release of their first single album, Asterum. Asterum is described in Plave's worldview as a mysterious space between Caelum and Terra, where they meet their fans.[9]
During their livestream on December 12, 2023, the members announced that they would be joining Weverse.[10] They subsequently launched their official fan club membership on Weverse at the start of 2024. Plave is the first virtual group to join the platform.[11]
1.2. 2024–present: First anniversary and fan concert
On February 26, 2024, their second mini album, Asterum: 134-1, was released, which sold 221,151 physical albums on opening day and 569,289 copies in one week, a new record for the group.[12] Their title track "Way 4 Luv" won first place on two Korean weekly music shows, Show Champion,[13] and Show! Music Core,[14][15] making them the first virtual idol group to win on a Korean music show.[16]
The group held their first fan concert, "Hello, Asterum!", on April 13–14, 2024 at the Olympic Hall in Seoul.[17]
In April 2024, Vlast CEO Lee Sung-gu announced that the company had received equity investments from HYBE and YG Plus to support international expansion.[17][18] In November 2024, Plave performed at the Mnet Asian Music Awards, the first virtual idol group to appear at the ceremony.[19]
On February 3, 2025, Plave released their third mini album, Caligo Pt.1, with the lead single "Dash".[20] The album sold over one million copies in its first week, making Plave the first virtual idol group and the first boy group of 2025 to reach million-seller status with a single release.[21] "Dash" debuted at number 195 on the Billboard Global 200, the first entry on the chart by a virtual act since K/DA's "More" in 2020.[21]
