"HYBE is planning to enter global artists and launch new services to upgrade Weverse traffic. First of all, U.S. artists are negotiating to be able to enter at the end of the year and the new year, and there is a high possibility that Japanese artists will enter sooner.
The launch of the new service will be internalized by the end of this year. We plan to integrate the fan communication platform 'Phoning' service introduced with the debut of NewJeans into Weverse."
