Candy Shop is not just any new act — they’re the latest creation of Brave Brothers, the famed producer behind the hits of renowned groups like Brown Eyed Girls, After School, Sistar, and AOA. With such a pedigree, Candy Shop aims to become a beacon of hope for the fifth generation of K-Pop, boasting an array of skills and enchanting charms that promise to captivate audiences worldwide.

The group’s debut strategy is as vibrant and diverse as the shop they’re named after. By aligning with the Korea Small & Medium Business Association, Candy Shop will feature in advertisements across a spectrum of online and offline platforms and even on product designs. This expansive promotion strategy isn’t just limited to the domestic market —  it’s a clear play for global dominance, with the group’s promotional content set to reach international audiences from day one.

As they prepare to showcase their talents and personalities through performance videos and self-PR content, Candy Shop is debuting not just as a music group but also as a significant new force in entertainment and marketing. With hopes they can become the new favorites of Generation Z, how the group’s releases will be received remains to be seen.
