Virtual boy group Miracle (MY:RAKL) debuted on the 26th at 6 p.m. with the release of their debut single When the Stars Gossip.
Miracle's worldview depicts boys who were top idols in a past life whose souls were reincarnated after a mysterious accident and who, in virtual form, challenge their dream of becoming singers once again. The process of watching youth's "second-run idol growth narrative" itself is a main viewing point, presenting the original concept of "idols starting over from debut." The group consists of five members—Saeon, Yuseong, Hyden, Jeha and Jeonseol—who possess solid skills, visually striking looks and excellent musical sensibility.
The debut title track When the Stars Gossip is a dance song notable for its catchy melody, and its standout hook lyrics use the title phrase When the Stars Gossip. It captures the boys' dreams and destiny and their feelings as they restart as idols, most directly showing the worldview Miracle will portray.
In particular, aiming to be a global K-pop group, Miracle plans to present high-quality content by signing partnerships with top domestic production studios upon debut. LumiFlow, which holds patents for immersive interactive content and space production based on real-time rendering·motion capture·live technology; Alfred Image Works, which has continuously developed original direction and visual effects technology in 3D character animation, game cinematics and motion graphics; and Animal Studio, specialized in planning·producing 2D cel animation series, participated in production to realize Miracle's unique virtual performance.
Through this, Miracle plans to expand touchpoints with global fans by offering a new virtual idol experience that goes beyond simple character-based content, combining real-time technology and animation direction.
Since the 8th, Miracle has been sequentially revealing each member's visuals and characters via official social media and YouTube channels, and has drawn attention by releasing audiobook content that contains the story and worldview of their rebirth as virtual idols. The audiobook videos spread quickly after release, recording high view counts for each episode and proving strong interest in Miracle's worldview and narrative even before debut.
Meanwhile, the music video teaser released on the 25th hinted at the starting point of the narrative Miracle will portray through mise-en-scène that captures youth's dreams, hopes and growth worldview. Despite its short length, it increased immersion with fresh and three-dimensional development, and Miracle's voice and emotional line flowing throughout the video partially revealed the message contained in the title track When the Stars Gossip. This raises curiosity about how Miracle's music and narrative will expand into a single story and increases anticipation for the full music video.
Meanwhile, Miracle's debut digital single When the Stars Gossip was released at 6 p.m. on the 26th through various music sites, and the full version of the music video was also released.<
