Global fandom life platform Weverse will open the private chat service “Weverse DM” and the official community of Japanese idol group AKB48.
Weverse will open AKB48‘s official community on April 27th and start the DM service on May 2nd to provide services that allow artists and fans to communicate more closely.
AKB48 is Japan’s top idol group that has been active since 2005. They have grown into an idol group representing Japan through fan-participating events such as “AKB48 Selection General Election” and “Request Hour”. They are actively engaged in various fields such as music, entertainment shows and acting. They will release their 61st single “Doushitemo kimi ga suki da” on April 26th.
Currently, there are more than 80 members in AKB48. 16 members selected for the upcoming single title song will enter Weverse first, then other members will join sequentially. First of all, 16 members entering Weverse first include former IZ*ONE member Honda Hitomi, Yui Oguri, Kashiwagi Yuki, Mion Mukaichi…
Honda Hitomi said, “I’m very happy and excited to interact with fans around the world through Weverse.”
Meanwhile, Weverse will hold a hashtag posting event from April 28th to May 2nd to commemorate the opening of AKB48’s community and Weverse DM.
