The charismatic rapper of BTOB engages his community through a series of unique participatory projects to celebrate his grand musical comeback.
On May 22 at 4 PM KST, the agency BTOB COMPANY delighted the fan community by publishing a series of colorful infographics announcing the rollout of major interactive events.
This initiative accompanies the official launch of the brand-new digital single by PENIEL, titled “IDKI”. To allow everyone to instantly immerse themselves in his universe and join forces right from the release, the agency made available a global access portal gathering all major listening platforms (available via this dedicated streaming link).
Three distinct interactive events, extending from Friday, May 22 at 6 PM KST to Sunday, June 7 at 11:59 PM KST, were revealed to stimulate sharing on social networks.
The first one, a Download Event, invites listeners to capture their proof of purchase of the track on Melon or Genie platforms in order to try to win an exclusive photo keychain. The second is a traditional Streaming Event on the main music applications (Melon, Genie, Bugs, VIBE, FLO), where fans can submit their listening screenshots with personalized hashtags to win unreleased printed photos of the artist. Finally, PENIEL offers a more intimate concept named “IDKI 대신 정해드립니다” (IDKI chooses for you): a playful event where fans share their small daily dilemmas on the X platform, hoping that the rapper will answer them in person via a postcard equipped with a video message QR code.
An essential member and creative pillar of the group BTOB, PENIEL takes advantage of this solo project to reveal a deeply authentic and modern facet of his musical identity. Through the artistic direction of these visuals, blending the textured urban aesthetic of a giant billboard with the softness of pastel and pink tones, the artist shows his desire to break the barrier between the idol and his public, transforming a simple single release into a collective and warm experience.
The official events and streaming platforms for the digital single “IDKI” of PENIEL are open and active since Friday, May 22, 2026, at 6 PM KST.
