JEWEL BOX

STATUS:  

Comeback promotions.

BRIEFING:  

Jewel Box moves forth with their promotions for SURREAL, still showing strength in the charts even as they delve into their third week since the release.

19/07, 4:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Promotional video recording at a private studio in Nonhyeon 2 dong, Gangnam gu.

HEX

STATUS:

Concert preparation.

BRIEFING:

After a successful ticketing that sold out all seats in less than ten minutes, the HEX members are now focusing on final preparations for their concert in the Olympic Gymnastics Arena, taking place on August 4th--6th. With all of the new routines for the setlist learned, they now practice the sets on the venue, with a full body of backdancers, tidying up the loose ends to deliver a solid performance for their anticipating crop of fans.

ACTIVITIES:  

17/07--21/07, 2:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Concert rehearsal at Seoul Olympic Gymnastics Arena.

CHERRY BOMB

STATUS:

Debut post-production.

BRIEFING:

The soon-to-debut trainees are possibly the act doing the longest hours under the Nebula seal right now. Debut promotions are well known to be colossal, but Cherry Bomb marks yet another record for the entire company, as they participate in variety and publicity campaigns even before the public has had time to learn their names. Aside from filming a music video with labelmates Jewel Box and anti for a Samsung ad campaign, they’re also finishing rehearsals for their debut showcase, which has been set for July 25th, when they will perform the three singles in their first extended play, marking their first public appearance as a debuted group.

ACTIVITIES:  

19/07, 4:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Promotional video recording at a private studio in Nonhyeon 2 dong, Gangnam gu.

18/07, 2:30PM. ( PRIVATE ) Music video filming and photoshoot at Hapjeong dong, Mapo gu.

22/07, 8:00AM. ( PRIVATE ) Music video filming and photoshoot at Gamcheon Village, in Busan.

ANTI

STATUS:

Comeback production.

BRIEFING:

This is the awaited moment for many of the fans of the members, the solid step towards a new project. Anti begins the process of recording for their album, which takes the group longer as they usually record the largest amount of demos to only then pick the ones that sound the most cohesive to put in album format. The girls will take a brief break from their new album preparations, though, to read to the studio and shoot the promotional Samsung campaign video alongside Jewel Box and Cherry Bomb.

ACTIVITIES:  

19/07, 4:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Promotional video recording at a private studio in Nonhyeon 2 dong, Gangnam gu.

17/07--20/07, 2:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Album recording at Nebula Entertainment Center.

HALCYON

STATUS:

Comeback promotions.

BRIEFING:

In a very quick follow up to their february release, Halcyon surprises their fans with an uncharacteristic fast paced schedule. They join Jewel Box in the music show recording circuit, keeping the ever present Nebula name alive in the summer season once more. To maintain their trademark, they welcome fans and passersby alike in a short guerilla live in Yeouido as part of the company’s charity campaign in partnership with UNICEF.

16/07, 9:00AM. ( PUBLIC ) Pre-recording for Inkigayo at SBS Gonggaehall.

21/07, 4:00PM. ( PUBLIC ) Guerilla live at Hangan Park in Yeouido, Yeongdeungpo gu .

PRISM A

STATUS:

Off-season.

BRIEFING:

While off-season, the media interest in Prism A never quite dies down. TVN casting directors have been rounding Nebula representatives to get her a role in a fall season drama, but the discussions are only now reaching her, after passing previous acceptance from the management. 

ACTIVITIES:  

18/07, 5:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Meeting with management to discuss acting offer at Nebula Entertainment Center.

PRISM B

STATUS:

Off-season.

BRIEFING:

Prism B gives his launching modelling career a short pause to be featured in a hallyu festival in Seoul, in which he will perform a short set to crown the line-up. But the pause is indeed short, as he is set to take the lead in an editorial alongside a female idol yet unselected from his company.

ACTIVITIES:  

20/07, 4:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Vogue Korea editorial photoshoot in a private studio in Seocho dong, Seocho gu.

23/07, 1:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Hallyu+ Live Festival at the Seoul Olympic Park, in Songpa gu.

JEWEL BOX + ANTI + CHERRY BOMB

Promotional video filming for Samsung’s new Galaxy S8 model update in a studio set. The groups will take turns shooting individually and then as an ensemble, with the tagline “invincible together” to showcase the combined efforts from all previous models in the brand new Galaxy S8 Lux. The music video takes a toned down futuristic concept, each of the groups representing one of the available colors for the model: Jewel Box as rose gold, anti as black and Cherry Bomb as white.

overview.

This a summary of the corporate evaluation of the labels’ performances. This is limited to what idols would know, an information they would typically aquire through direct meetings, company hearsay around the halls and word of mouth or their individual managers. The positions of the board of directors ultimately shape the future of the acts, and it’s guided by their performances in sales, image and public impact. Here you can find unadultered truths that will never see the light of the day in the sugar-coated media articles, as well as inklings of what the future holds for Nebula ( and Glory ).

nebula silver.

OVERVIEW:

Silver’s status is breaking even, which, for their standards, means red flags. Though HEX’s skyrocketing fame is giving Nebula investment opportunities, DCHN’s extended hiatus continues to hurt revenue numbers and investor security beyond the coverage the rookie’s still green brand can provide. Jewel Box proves to be stable, but the board fears the new stylistic direction must be too steep of a change for the public -- investors seemed worried when their national digital sales showed signs of slowing down compared to their previous record, though their digital presence increased across the world.

UPCOMING PROJECTS:

HEX: Strike while the iron is hot mentality through and through. They’re to be pushed towards acting and advertisement, two singles under Orbit to be released until the end of the year. They’ll be milked for all they’re worth while they’re profitable, and be propelled out of the fanbase safe space they’ve been immersed in this far.

Jewel Box: Re-establish their status as the topdog in the industry. Group tour and individual activities on the horizon, focus on variety and acting. Large presence in TV for the rest of the year.

Others: New debut project near completion, final line up decided, concept and style established, marketing schedule propositions on the way. Entwining of HEX and Jewel Box’s brands to lend name to the former with the general public.

nebula black.

OVERVIEW:

Black is on a positive status with the prospect of comebacks under the label in the latter half of the year, but that can be undermined by the fact the label started off on a negative balance. The label’s most recent debut has proven to be quite successful despite the initial setbacks, keeping a strong pace and exposure in 2017. The current pace of the label’s management is chaotic, with their resources constantly being cut too short for the success of their investments, but things slowly seem to be lining in their favor.

UPCOMING PROJECTS:

ATLAS: Reform their previous brand, disassociate them from mainstream styling. Collaborations pending.

anti: Possible collaboration with Jewel Box in the future. Possible full concert coming after their comeback.

Others: Workings for their new act still midway through execution, trainees withdrawn from the project. Final lineup nowhere in sight. ATLAS and anti’s comebacks should have connected ideas but individual concepts. Both have now been slated for the third quarter of the year, likely to be supported by copious media play to hold the company’s image at bay in the flurry of novelties.

nebula prism.

OVERVIEW:

Prism is on resounding solid ground, with moderate inclination towards a positive balance. Since they deal with single artists, they benefit from a more dynamic work layout than others, which often acts in their favor. While Prism A’s continuously popular public brand has done the label a great service since the splitting, Prism B’s fanbase earnings have also played a part in keeping the label afloat. They still face challenges from a management standpoint in organizing all of their acts, considering a number of them have debuted quite recently, but the board shows limited worries with their numbers so far.

UPCOMING PROJECTS:

Prism A: To be retrieved from variety cycles to preserve her image. Slowly becoming a luxury item for Nebula, investors are typically excited by the major splashes she makes on charts despite controversies. Also has some prospects in acting.

Prism B: Likely to be invested in more modelling deals, but his performance and music act is to be broadened in a near future. Board seems curious of how far he can be pushed.

SPECIAL EVENT --- NAMIE AMURO LIVE STYLE PACIFIC ENCORE

A month ago, the highly influential Japanese pop artist Namie Amuro announced a six-stop concert tour across the Pacific as an encore to her 2016-2017 Japanese tour Namie Amuro Live Style. The first city she was set to visit was revealed to be Seoul, marking her first concert in the country in thirteen years.

Weeks ahead of the official announcement, Namie Amuro’s representatives reached out to Nebula Entertainment to discuss the possibly of having one of their acts open the concert. The move was carefully calculated to ensure local media would catch wiff not only of Amuro’s good relationship with the country, always a benefitting move to overcome tensions between the countries, but also with her ability to keep her material updated. Although their primary interest relied on a male boyband, Nebula’s suggestion of HEX was met with hesitation from the team, evident they feared the group’s digital influence would deviate attention from the main act.

Discussions quickly reverted interest in a male solo act, and Prism B and his brand of dance pop fit like a glove for the offer. As ticketing opened with the announcement the soloist had been personally invited by Namie Amuro’s management to star in the opening sequence, the interest in the collaboration between the two singers led Nebula to capitalize on the offer.

Nebula’s official twitter account announced that various Nebula Galaxy acts would be present in the concert to support their labelmate. Comments flooded the internet in the wake of the news to comment on celebrity’s privilege, but the company’s fans response was overwhelmingly positive, excitement brimming with the possiblity of seeing the artists together or with Amuro herself.

As the concert week rolled by, Namie Amuro herself offered to repay for Nebula’s hospitality by hosting a private party for concert antendees at Octagon, planned by her team as a thank you note to their support. This detail has eluded online leaks as of now, but it won’t take long for eyes to follow the idols once the real party starts.

JEWEL BOX

STATUS:  

Comeback post-production / promotions.

BRIEFING:  

Jewel Box gears up for the release of their 6th full album, SURREAL, and their two MVs for their two title tracks on June 28th. In the last steps of preparing the bulk of their promotional material for the following month, they finish the pre-recording of a couple TV shows, as well as hold photoshoots and interviews for diverse fashion magazines. It’ll be a particularly challenging week for the girls, as eall promotional cycles are, especially at their beginning.

ACTIVITIES:  

26/07, 3:00PM. ( PUBLIC ) Weekly Idol recording at MBC Global Media Center.

28/07, 4:30PM. ( PRIVATE ) Photoshoot and interview for July issue of Vogue Korea held in a private studio in Mapo gu.

02/07, 10:00AM. ( PUBLIC ) Pre-recording for Inkigayo at SBS Gonggaehall.

PROMPTS:

Funny Business.  Behind the scenes, Weekly Idol tends to be way more quieter than what the audience gets to see on broadcast. The girls review the main talking points for the show, and the PD asks them how they would feel about the hosts making light jokes about their recently disclosed love lives. 

Memory Lane.  Jewel Box holds a round table, joint interview with the Vogue Korea correspondent, a fashion editor they had worked with numerous times. The focus of the interview is the group’s maturing image and their impact on Korean pop culture. The questions, listed below, throw the girls in a journey through memories in their dressing room, as they review highs and lows, nostalgia for their rookie days tinging the conversation. QUESTIONS ASKED: 1. National Girlgroup. What does the title mean to you? Do you feel worthy of it? 2. What do you think is the image Jewel Box represents to young women, rather than to a male audience? 3. It’s often said that your group’s growth has benefitted other gilrgroups after you. What do you think of that belief? Is it a blessing or a burden?

HEX

STATUS:

Comeback promotions.

BRIEFING:

HEX concludes their promotional activities for their fourth comeback. The rookie group’s pace is downright frenetic, holding a five-week long cycle, a week longer than the usual Nebula act. Nothing short of impressive, it’s far from the last their fans will be seeing of them, as their first individual concert dates in July rapidly approach. The group’s physical and mental strength is being constantly challenged, but the passion and support their fans have shown them seems to only grow as days roll by.

ACTIVITIES:  

27/06, 9:PM. ( PRIVATE ) Choreograpy rehearsal at Nebula Entertainment Studios.

02/07, 10:00AM. ( PUBLIC ) Pre-recording for Inkigayo at SBS Gonggaehall.

PROMPTS:

Fatigue. Between a regularly packed schedule and the pressure of their concert debut looming over their heads, nerves are running thin in the HEX practice room. The boys cope with spent muscles and wired minds as they drag through practice, patience on an all time low.

Final Shot. HEX film their last stage for their latest hit song, WILD, off their HEXTIC album at SBS’s Inkigayo. The sight of a massive amount of fans gathering at the parking lot of the Gonggaehall has lost the impact it had a year ago. The dressing room is only silent when they’re out to film, but as soon as they head back, the sense of completion lifts the group’s spirits as their manager offers to take them out for dinner to celebrate their successful promotions.

ATLAS

STATUS: 

Comeback production.

BRIEFING:

With their sights on their new comeback, ATLAS find themselves immersed in recording studio and practice rooms as they prepare their upcoming album. Artistic visions are bound to clash and harsh truths may be on the out, only if the group wants to present their best features after their 2016 unimpressive results. On the other hand, however, they’re allowed some breathing room as they meet their fans in a private event for their fanclub and blow off some steam.

ACTIVITIES:  

29/06, 1:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Album recording at Nebula Entertainment Center.

30/06, 6:00PM. ( PUBLIC ) ATLAS Summer Fan Event at K-Live Performance Hall.

PROMPTS:

Migraine. The temperatures aren't the only thing rising in Nebula's headquarters. With their new album now in pre-production, ATLAS have found themselves tense with the expectations of their long awaited comeback. Creative differences are bound to happen now that they are back to recording in the studio, and it's only a matter of time before their worries surface.

Come Undone. ATLAS belongs onstage. Nothing ever brings the group’s mood up like the prospect of performing, the release of pent up energy in the only way they have known for way over six years since debut. After the fan event, the group shoves differences aside and gathers for drinks at a club.

ANTI

STATUS: 

Comeback pre-production.

BRIEFING:

The importance of last month’s album confirmation may only be really understood by the anti girls. They’re back in the Yongsan gu based Nebula headquarters, and they’re in for a series of meetings to discuss the artistic and musical direction they’ll take for their upcoming release with creative directors, music producers and chief stylists. But they’ll be allowed to have the dessert ahead of the meal, as they head on the beginning of the week to Okinawa for a summer-themed photoshoot in the beach.

ACTIVITIES:  

26/06, 10:00AM. ( PRIVATE ) Photoshoot for the July issue of Cosmopolitan at Century Beach, in Okinawa, Japan.

29/06, 2:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Meeting with Nebula Black’s creative board at the Nebula Entertainment Center.

PROMPTS:

Salt Water. Sunshine and the beach: the girls have little to complain about. Although the visit mainly centers around the photoshoot, the change of air and the good weather all contribute for the session to wrap up soon, leaving the girls to enjoy a few hours as tourists in a summery paradise.

Start Anew. Choosing the concept and the style to be pursued in an album is never a task anti takes lightly. And now, stakes are higher than ever, and the excitement in the room seems to rise to meet their level.

PRISM A

STATUS: 

Off-season.

BRIEFING:

Although she’s off-season, her 2017 main single still figures among the top 100 positions on online charts months after its release. Though she certainly has seen busier days, Prism’s first soloist still maintains a full schedule. She is set to lend her voice to an Orbit song in July, tucking into the recording booth to bring the demo to life. There are rumors in the company that she may already be working on her next release even though it’ll likely only be released in 2018.

ACTIVITIES:  

29/06, 1:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Orbit single recording at Nebula Entertainment Center.

PROMPTS:

Muse. She hides away into a private studio she rents through an acquaintance to pour her thoughts into the microphone, testing out new sounds. Alone or with company, she stays up late recording. 

PRISM B

STATUS: 

Off-season.

BRIEFING:  

Scouted by modelling agencies, the soloist is having a year filled with events and advertisements that have little to do with music. His fans will be pulled from the drought, however, as it was announced a month ago he would be the opening act for Namie Amuro’s South Korean stop in the Pacific Encore concerts of her last tour. Planning a set of 4 songs for the concert’s preface, it’s also said he’ll feature in a number with Namie herself as her dancing partner.

ACTIVITIES:  

01/07, 2:00PM. ( PRIVATE ) Final rehearsal at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena.

PROMPTS:

Nerves. The concert practice has been intense, many eyes from Namie’s team close on him as he is expected to deliver the performance Nebula’s representatives ensured he could deliver. It’s only back in his dressing room that he can get to unwind.
