Star Planet and Big Ground Entertainment are the promoters of Plave's concert in Indonesia. "This is a new phase in the entertainment world.

About Plave
Plave was formed by Vlast Entertainment, debuting with the album Asterum and the lead song 'Wait For You' on March 12, 2023. The name Plave is a combination of the words play and reve from the French language, meaning dream.
According to Billboard, their third mini album, Caligo Pt.1, released in February 2025, was noted as the work of a virtual Korean idol group that surpassed sales of more than 1 million copies according to Circle Chart.
After gaining popularity in Korea, Plave is now expanding the group's popularity overseas. They are scheduled to hold an Asian tour, including their first solo concert in Indonesia on October 18. Jakarta is one of the destinations among tours in Taipei, Hong Kong, Bangkok, and Tokyo.
Plave is powered by human artists using motion capture technology. This system enables the three-dimensional image of Plave to display facial expressions, body movements, and real-time interaction with fans. Vlast, the company behind the establishment of Plave, was initially a computer graphics studio before fully developing into a production house. They combine technology to produce images quickly (real-time rendering) with the distinct appearance of Korean manhwa and webtoon.
Behind the webtoon-style avatars, the members of Plave are genuine musicians who write, produce, and arrange songs. Some members are also involved in choreography.
Their fanbase is named Plli, an abbreviation of play and reality. This name symbolizes the relationship between Plave and fans that transcends the boundaries of the virtual and real world. Plave's business network also provides the Asterum Cafe, a real cafe in Korea for visitors to enjoy special menus chosen by the members.
