SM’s First Kpop Virtual Idol Naevis Appointed as 2024 Seoul Design Ambassador
The giant Kpop corporation SM Entertainment has successfully made a breakthrough with its first virtual idol, Naevis. Not only has the idol created a whole new standard for AI and virtual artists in the industry, but Naevis has now further expanded her presence in South Korea’s design industry.
On October 17, the 2024 Seoul Design held its opening ceremony at Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP). During this ceremony, Kpop virtual idol Naevis presented a remarkable showcase of her capabilities as the official ambassador of the event.
As the first AI-based artist from SM Entertainment, Naevis not only demonstrated a conversation that was incredibly fluent and smooth with Seoul’s Mayor Oh Se Hoon, but also delivered a successful opening performance that captivated the attention of the public.
Not only that, the virtual Kpop idol even greeted the audience and expressed her gratitude for the appointment.
“It’s an honor to be the ambassador for Seoul Design. I’m especially delighted to share this space with the Mayor.
With this year’s theme of ‘Imagine Tomorrow,’ I hope to inspire many people to unleash their limitless imaginations.”
Naevis.
About the 2024 Seoul Design Festival
Seoul Design 2024 is a major design festival in South Korea, taking place from October 17 to 27 at Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) in Seoul. Now in its 11th year, the event is hosted by the Seoul Metropolitan Government and the Seoul Design Foundation.
For this year, the event raises the theme of “Imagine Tomorrow.” It focuses on how artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping the future of design. Through this event, there will hopefully be promising exploration to find clear blends and boundaries between AI and creative designs through through exhibitions, conferences, and product showcases. Hence, we will be able to witness the transformative impact of AI in our everyday lives further.
The festival features diverse programs such as the DDP Design Launching Fair, where young designers and companies present innovative products, and the Seoul Design Conference, which brings together experts from various fields to discuss AI’s role in the industry.

So, what makes Naevis so special that she was specially appointed as the event’s ambassador?
In the previous discussion, we have pointed out how Naevis is different from the other fellow virtual idols. Originally designed as the guide for aespa, Naevis now debuts as an independent artist that especially highlights her multifaceted features and content. And all these features are, of course, brilliantly AI-generated.
Therefore, under these impressive controls of artificial intelligence, Naevis will be able to adapt flexibly to various platforms as a versatile character: webtoons, games, merchandise, animation, and even real-world presence.
As the first virtual Kpop idol from SM Entertainment, she has the impressive ability to freely switch between different forms.
This genius multifaceted design is the primary reason why Naevis is the perfect choice as the 2024 Seoul Design icon. With her excellent AI-generated content, she will be able to represent various aspects of designs. Not only that, but she can also perfectly demonstrate how AI can help further expand and open new possibilities in the world of design.
“I don’t see today and tomorrow as separate.
Just as AI has opened up a new world by playing an innovative role in our daily lives, I believe that in the future, the activities of virtual artists like myself will increase, and the global reach of K-pop will expand even further.”
