‘KQ Entertainment Rookie’ Cycus, selected as new artist for ‘Blip’ even before debut
KQ Entertainment's new group xikers was selected as a new artist for the 'K-Pop Deokjil Secretary' mobile app 'blip'.

'Blip', which is receiving a warm response from the global fandom by providing artists' schedules, various information and data, officially opened its Cycus service on the 16th. In particular, it attracts even more attention as it is the first time to be selected as a new artist for 'Blip' even before debut.

Cykers is a new group from KQ Entertainment, scheduled to release its debut album on the 30th, and attracted attention by appearing at 'KCON 2022 JAPAN' in October last year.

In relation to this, 'Blip' stated the reason for its selection, saying, "Cykers is a group that has been inundated with requests to open due to its unusual popularity even before its debut. We decided to open to provide a platform for the Cykers fandom and help convenient fandom."

In the future, Cykers fandom will be able to enjoy more convenient fandom activities, such as checking Cykers' schedule, Twitter, community, chart news, and various data at once through 'Blip'. In addition, you can use the 'Fanlog' function, which is an easy and convenient fan diary, so you are expected to be able to enjoy more enriching fandom activities in the future.

Additionally, 'Blip' will open the Cycus service and hold a 'Question Prison' event for fans starting on the 17th. 'Question Prison, delivered on behalf of the fandom' by 'Blip' YouTube content 'blip originals' is an entertainment content in which the artist directly answers fans' questions and messages of support. Starting with Exdinary Heroes, TO1, TNX, Park Woo-jin, etc. previously appeared and received an explosive response from K-pop fans.

As KQ Entertainment's senior group ATEEZ previously garnered attention through 'Blip' with various videos, including the data lab, expectations are also rising for the diverse contents of 'Blip Originals' that Cykers will introduce in the future.

Information about Cykers' 'Blip Originals' can be found on the 'Blip' official Twitter, and the event will run until the 19th.

Meanwhile, 'Blip' is a brand created for fans by music startup Space Oddity, which operates the Blip app, market, and YouTube. Blip App is a ‘K-pop fan assistant’ app that provides services to help K-pop fans ‘love what they love even more’. Recently, the diary 'Fanlog' function that can be linked to schedules was launched and is receiving great love from K-pop fans.

In addition, upon its release in 2020, it garnered attention by taking first place in the ICT Music Tech Support Project of the Korea Creative Content Agency and the 'Changgu Program' hosted by Google Play and the Ministry of SMEs and Startups in 2021. Blip Market sells a variety of duck quality items and albums that make it convenient to dance.
