Galaxy Corporation is ready to take K-pop<\/a> to a new level with\u2026robots?<\/p>\n

Choi Yong-ho, founder and CEO of the Seoul-based entertainment unicorn, announced plans to build a humanoid robot idol with the intention of sending it on a world tour in the second half of 2027. Yong-ho revealed the news at the opening of Galaxy Robot Park, the world’s first robot-themed park, and explained that the robot act is being positioned as the company’s next major touring enterprise after BIGBANG and Taemin complete their current global runs.<\/p>\n

Galaxy Corporation is no stranger to the music world, managing superstars such as BIGBANG frontman G-Dragon, SHINee’s Taemin, actor Song Kang-ho, and singer Kim Jong-kook.<\/p>\n

BIGBANG recently opened their 20th anniversary world tour<\/a>, titled “XX: COSMOS,” in Goyang. Taemin’s “LiMiNaL” world tour<\/a> kicks off in Seoul at Jamsil Indoor Stadium on Sept. 18-20 before moving through North America, Latin America, and Europe, wrapping up on Nov. 24.<\/p>\n

The robot idol announcement builds on Galaxy Corp.’s existing investment in robotic performance. The company opened Galaxy Robot Park in Gangdong District, where three robots built by Hangzhou-based Unitree Robotics perform to tracks including G-Dragon’s “POWER”<\/a> and Taemin’s “Advice.”<\/p>\n

Choi has outlined an even more ambitious roadmap. At the AI for Good Global Summit in July, he framed robotics as the logical next phase of a strategy that already spans physical idols and the virtual world. “Robots are next,” he said in a prior CNBC appearance. “The three coexist, and I think the coexistence will happen in the next five years. Galaxy Corp. is preparing a lot for that day.”<\/p>\n
