Billboard Korea has teamed up with PLAVE, the popular virtual idol group, to release a special 'Billboard Artist: PLAVE Edition'.

On April 22nd KST, Billboard Korea unveiled the official group cover image via its channels, showcasing PLAVE members in striking all-black suits, styled with white gold and diamond accessories. The intense gazes and sharp styling emphasized a dandy, mature charm.

The PLAVE Edition went on online pre-sale via Makestar’s official website on the same day. Starting with the A version featuring the group cover, the edition includes six versions in total, each spotlighting individual members in different concepts and color palettes that highlight their unique personalities.

One standout feature is the magazine’s large-format poster-style pages, designed to appeal to collectors. It also comes with an acrylic photo stand with sleek visuals. Fans can purchase either the complete set—including all versions and components—or individual sets with one artist book and photo stand per version. Items can also be bought separately.

To boost excitement, Billboard Korea will release five moving covers and a series of interview videos, showcasing the members’ virtual charisma in motion.

Pre-orders will be accepted until May 5th at 11:59 PM KST, with the official release scheduled for May 15th.
