<About bubble for JAPAN> 'bubble' is a fan communication platform with artists from around the world, primarily from Korea.

It has gained significant global support through two-way communication, where artists' current feelings are directly conveyed and fans can reply.

It is highly regarded for being a safe space where only their fans gather for artists, and a closed environment where messages are not seen by others for fans, allowing both to enjoy naturally.

'bubble for JAPAN', which launched in June 2024, currently features a wide range of genres, including music artists such as Mrs. GREEN APPLE, Subaru Shibuya, Novelbright, MIYAVI, idols like SKE48, and talents/models/voice actors/YouTubers such as Nako Yabuki, Nicole Fujita, and Kasu.

It is equipped with functions optimized for the Japanese market, such as member discounts through ID linkage with fan clubs operated by the m-up holdings group, various web payment options, and event ticket sales linked with 'Ticketpla' and 'TicketplaTrade' provided by group company Ticketplus as a special project for bubble subscribers, offering a highly convenient experience for Japanese entertainment fans.
