ENHYPEN, who has shown a unique presence on the global stage with solid live performances and intense choreography, will meet fans around the world in a new way with their first VR concert 'ENHYPEN VR CONCERT: IMMERSION', which is set to premiere on August 8 (Friday).
The 'ENHYPEN VR CONCERT: IMMERSION' begins with a mysterious invitation to ENGENE (ENHYPEN's fandom). As whispers from the members echo in an unfamiliar corridor, the boundary between reality and unreality collapses, and the audience encounters a new side of ENHYPEN like never before in constantly changing spaces such as a massive office, an abandoned factory, and a rooftop where the Pink Moon and Red Moon coexist. Moreover, fans can experience ENHYPEN's visuals and performances, rendered more vividly than reality, right in front of them at a distance of 0cm.
This VR concert was produced with the cutting-edge technology of AMAZE. Innovative interactions, such as heart effects appearing on the screen when the audience makes hand hearts, and branching scenes where viewers can choose one of the seven members to enjoy from their favorite perspective, add new experiential elements that provide a level of immersion not seen in previous VR concerts.
'IMMERSION' is the first VR concert project to confirm its release in advance in about 40 major cities, including Korea, the United States, Japan, China, Southeast Asia, and Europe, further proving ENHYPEN's status as a global artist. This project, the largest ever spanning North America to Europe, not only demonstrates ENHYPEN's explosive global popularity but is also evaluated as a more meaningful achievement with the technology of AMAZE, which is expanding its distribution network into the global market.
The official poster released alongside the announcement of the premiere date captures ENHYPEN's intense visuals, seemingly waiting for the audience at the end of immersion, while the teaser video reveals an overwhelming presence in a space where reality and fantasy intersect, heightening global fans' expectations for the new possibilities of the VR concert.
This 'ENHYPEN VR CONCERT: IMMERSION' combines AMAZE's unique technologies, including ultra-high-definition 12K live-action filming, Unreal Engine-based VFX, and AI super-resolution, providing immersion and emotion that surpasses existing VR concerts. The audience can fully experience ENHYPEN's stage and emotional lines through a vivid experience as if facing the actual stage right in front of them.
Meanwhile, the 'ENHYPEN VR CONCERT: IMMERSION' will open its first ticket sales on the 18th (Friday) and will be exclusively released at the Megabox COEX from August 8 (Friday).
