The “Signal Song Global Showcase”, streamed on Thursday via the global K-pop content platform Mnet Plus and official YouTube and TikTok channels, featured the full performance of BOYS II PLANET’s theme song “HOLA SOLAR” by all 160 participants. The performance captured the energy and passion of the participants, offering a striking first look at their potential. Staged with large-scale sets and high-end production design, the showcase leveraged cutting-edge AR technology to create a visually immersive experience, highlighting the show’s grand scale and advanced production technology.
Global fan response was immediate and enthusiastic, with social media buzzing worldwide. The showcase drew approximately 240,000 live viewers from 133 countries and regions. On X, “Mnet” ranked #21 on Worldwide Trends, with over 10 related keywords, including “Signal Song”, trending in South Korea. More than 15 hashtags trended across major Asian countries such as the Philippines, Indonesia, and Thailand, while on Weibo, one of China’s major social media platforms, keywords related to the show and participants ranked high on real-time search charts, underscoring BOYS II PLANET’s global impact.
