CEO Choi Yong-ho told CNBC on Monday that artificial intelligence will dramatically accelerate content production, potentially ushering in “robot idols” within the next five years. ## Will Robots Become The Next Entertainment Stars Choi explained, > “We have physical idols and the virtual world. Now the next phase is robots. The three coexist and I think the coexistence will happen in the next five years. Galaxy Corp. is preparing a lot for that day.” He highlighted that AI will increase efficiency and lower production costs, particularly in music video creation, allowing entertainment companies to produce content at an unprecedented scale. Choi said, > “Not the industry will be divided into before and after AI. We cannot create music videos for every single song out there but in my view, most music videos will be created by artificial intelligence except for lead singles or title tracks.” ## Hybrid Experiences Are Already Gaining Traction Choi cited Netflix’s recent success with “KPop Demon Hunters” as evidence of a growing trend blending offline and virtual entertainment. He described the current moment as entering an “after AI” era, where AI-driven production will dominate, while also creating new markets and experiences for audiences. ## Galaxy Corp Aligns With AI-Driven Content Creation In April, Galaxy Corp collaborated with Microsoft to release the Azure OpenAI Sora-powered music video “Home Sweet Home” by G-Dragon. > 250409 | fastpapermag Instagram post > > “We’re revealing it for the first time.

Beyond virtual content, Galaxy Corp is investing in robotics and AI technologies, positioning itself to lead the next phase of entertainment where physical, virtual, and robotic performers coexist. ## Global Expansion And Future Plans Galaxy Corp is reportedly preparing to open a branch in India, part of a broader strategy to expand internationally ahead of a planned initial public offering. > Korean entertainment giants are sharpening their India focus, eyeing a booming fan economy.

While AI may lower costs and increase production efficiency, questions remain about audience engagement and emotional connection with robotic performers. Can robot idols compete with human charisma and virtual personas, or will they serve as niche supplements to traditional entertainment? The move also exposes potential vulnerabilities for companies betting heavily on AI-driven content: overreliance on technology could risk creativity and market adaptability. This period could redefine how audiences experience music, film, and live events, testing the balance between innovation and authenticity. ## Related News & Research - [Sailing-New Zealand SailGP team bought by MSP Sports Capital](https://longbridge.com/en/news/290290164.md) - [Tim Ho Wan to shut first Singapore outlet after 13 years](https://longbridge.com/en/news/290262598.md) - [MAS adds crypto exchange Bybit to Investor Alert List](https://longbridge.com/en/news/290266516.md) - [W.Africa Crude-Exxon offers Hungo again](https://longbridge.com/en/news/290305820.md) - [3 Brilliant Growth Stocks to Buy Now and Hold for the Long Term](https://longbridge.com/en/news/290284348.md)
