You Won't Believe What MEET48 Unveiled in Seoul – Discover the Shocking Future of AI & Web3!

Seoul, South Korea, December 28th, 2025, Chainwire — The landscape of entertainment is evolving rapidly, and MEET48 is at the forefront of this transformation. On December 26, 2025, MEET48 hosted the “MEET48 2026 Annual Roadshow For AI Entertainment UGC Platform & Web3.0 Strategy” in Seoul, South Korea. This event, a collaboration with key players in the tech and entertainment sectors, unveiled a significant shift towards a fan-centric economy, powered by Web3 and artificial intelligence (AI).
MEET48, recognized as the world's first idol fan economy ecosystem, integrates AI and user-generated content (UGC) on a Web3-native architecture. The event was co-hosted with notable partners including POChain, a Layer 1 ecosystem for AI-generated content (AIGC), and Auditions GO, an innovative AI-driven virtual idol music-and-dance simulation game developed by the original team behind Audition.
During the launch, MEET48 announced strategic partnerships with two major Korean firms, Zanybros and Gaudio Lab. Together, they issued a forward-looking AI Entertainment Strategic Cooperation Declaration. This collaboration focuses on a range of areas, including AI large models, virtual idols, visual production, interactive games, and a comprehensive fan economy ecosystem. The core idea is to create an “AI Co-Creator” model, facilitating a two-way entertainment bridge between China and South Korea and establishing a globally interlinked network of AI, entertainment, gaming, and Web3 content.
The event showcased several pioneering products aimed at transforming how fans engage with entertainment:
- ParoAI: The core large language model (LLM) of the MEET48 AI UGC ecosystem, designed to understand creative intent and generate multimodal content, thus enhancing storytelling, character development, and interactive experiences.
- MEET48.ai: A social community platform where idol fans can create, share, and co-create AI content using ParoAI, making AI creation a more interactive and community-oriented experience.
- Auditions GO: The world’s first AI-driven virtual idol rhythm and stage performance game, allowing players to create, train, and debut virtual idols on-chain, with tradable assets on the BNB Chain.
- POChain: A fully sovereign, AI-focused Layer 1 blockchain compatible with BNB Chain, aiming to serve as next-gen infrastructure for AI-native content creation and value settlement.
In addition to these innovations, several upcoming products from the POChain ecosystem were highlighted, including:
- POCSee.com: A content display hub that standardizes the presentation of various media forms while building a secure content pool.
- POCShow.ai: A decentralized platform for virtual idols that encourages fan participation through voting and revenue sharing.
- POCmusic.com: A platform for decentralized music creation and distribution, integrating AI music generation and copyright authentication.
- POCast.ai: An audio content ecosystem for creators to publish and monetize their work on-chain.
The event also spotlighted seven top idols from the inaugural “MEET48 Best7” rankings — Hu Xiaohui, Han Jiale, Liu Zengyan, Zhang Xiaoying, He Linyan, Li Qiuyue, and Zhu Yixin — who delivered captivating live performances and interacted with fans during a handshake session, further emphasizing MEET48’s commitment to enhancing fan engagement.
As the entertainment industry grapples with rapid technological advancements, MEET48 is pioneering a model that not only redefines traditional idol economies but also empowers fans to transition from passive consumers to active creators. By leveraging AI tools, fans can develop 3D digital avatars, virtual idols, and multimedia content, contributing directly to the platform's ecosystem. This innovative approach ensures that all user-generated content is stored on POChain, utilizing a “Proof of Creativity” consensus mechanism to continually allocate value back to creators through community voting and fan interactions.
This launch marks a significant step in redefining entertainment, as MEET48 aims to construct a global ecosystem where every act of creation and participation yields both cultural and economic value. The transition towards a fan-driven model represents a broader trend in entertainment, where technological advancements facilitate deeper engagement and co-creation.
