Lysn (Korean: 리슨) was a Korean mobile application created by South Korean company Dear U exclusively for SM Entertainment. The application specializes in artist-to-fan communications and fan club memberships through subscription. Initially launched in 2018, it gained popularity when it introduced the Bubble in February 2020 while expanding its service through the participation of other entertainment companies. Kwangya Club then replaced the application after its termination on July 20, 2022.

Development

SM Entertainment launched its fan community service, Lysn, in 2018.[3] While the proprietary platform is free to use, it is also available for paid fan club membership, where one can have more interactive features and, at the same time, receive a membership box.[4] Announcements, news, events, fan-signing events, music program schedules, and cheering posts of SM's artists are available at the platform.[5] In February 2020, SM launched a service called Dear U Bubble, where it gained immense popularity when it added reply functions and "strengthened" the nature of mobile messengers.[6] On the platform, fans can chat with artists and pay a charge to access Bubble content with a separate charge for each content they subscribe to.[7] Moreover, artists can directly upload unreleased photos and utilize a coded messaging system while also reading and responding to message from numerous fans at once.[8] According to an SM spokesperson, "The contactless platform makes it possible for artists to directly communicate with the fans without any time and space constraints".[9] SM terminated the application's community service on July 20, 2022, and transferred its functions to Kwangya Club.[10]

Features and tools

Bubble service

Bubble official logotype

Bubble is a paid service by Lysn provided by SM Entertainment's Dear U where by paying 4,500 won per month, users can reply by receiving messages, photos, and videos sent by artists.[11] For artists, they can see these messages in large group chats and reply to the whole group, but not directly to fans. For fans, the UI is like a personal chat between you and the artist.[12] Additionally, it offers a Dear U Bubble service that allows artists and fans to communicate.[13] The service offers in-app translation services to translate from Korean to English which similar platforms like Universe and Weverse have.[14] Since the content posted cannot be leaked from the service, artists tell "more profound stories", and fans feel that they communicate "more closely". Moreover, SM stated that the company is currently continuing to upgrade its functions by providing differential functions for individualization and loyal customers while also planning to expand its service through the participation of other entertainment companies.[15]

Fanship

Lysn plans to form a strategic alliance with Naver and unify the fan community through Fanship to strengthen video content production. At the same time, the full-scale transfer work has not yet begun..[5] The service is described as "a big data-based fan membership" intended for celebrities to "design fan membership and communicate with subscribed users".[55] Lee Sung-soo, the chief executive officer (CEO) of SM Entertainment, noted the collaboration of SM and Naver in providing "differentiated content for fans and opened a new era of entertainment" in the on-tact era.[56] Naver decided to invest 100 billion won in SM to "create synergy" in creating original digital content for fans of the artists.[57] The new funding will be added to two SM subsidiaries, SMEJ Plus and Mystic Story, with Han Seong-sook, the CEO of Naver, who stated that "Through this investment, we will collaborate with SM more closely and boost Fanship's competitiveness".[58]

Reception

Kim Soo-young of Korea Economic Daily highlighted the service for overcoming physical limitations that are limited to SM Entertainment artists with the power of contents that "strengthen bond formation", concluding that it also gained "strong support" from fans as it can share photos as well as their daily lives with their favorite stars.[59] Lee Eun-ho of Kuki News emphasized its similarity to KakaoTalk for its chat service and open chat room.[52] Ban Jin-wook of Maeil Business Newspaper noted what sets the service apart from other platforms, which was providing separate applications for each entertainment companies.[60] Park Eun-hae of Newsen compared Lysn with existing fan cafes as a platform that has the effect of "increasing" accessibility for foreign fans.[61] Park Seo-bin of Snap Time described the service as an alternative for "deeper communication", further adding that DeepSearch, a financial big data analysis company, stated that the platform is receiving "explosive" responses as it makes fans feel like they are talking directly to stars.[11] Jung Yu-jin of SPOTV News emphasized the "great acclaim" received by the service in the COVID-19 era for its differentiation of being able to communicate with artists in a "private way".[62] Stitch of The Verge called Lysn, along with the Bubble application "truly innovative", highlighting that it "has found a way to give K-pop groups all of the benefits of Twitter DMs, without many of the problems".[14]

Lysn was a relative failure before the introduction of the Bubble messaging service, which made high profits in 2020.[14] According to Hong Jin-seok of Global Economic, Dear U Bubble and Letter, which were in charge of the balance deficits of SM Entertainment, have grown rapidly while improving the break-even point (BEP) level.[17][63] In the second quarter alone of 2020, Dear U posted 4.2 billion won sales when it launched the Bubble service in February of the same year.[64] One year of the launch of the service, it had already surpassed 1.2 million subscriptions, with the monthly subscription fees adding to an amount of 5.4 billion won.[65]
