Securities Firm's Girl Group Debut Scores a Huge Hit... "It's Not a One-Off"

Surpasses 2.5 Million YouTube Views About a Month After Release
Self-Produced Four-Member Girl Group... Samsung Securities to Develop AI Idol Instead of Hiring Celebrity Models

Samsung Securities said on the 21st that the music video for "OVERRIDE," the debut song by its self-produced four-member AI girl group LUMINA, surpassed 2.5 million views on YouTube about a month after its release.

The "OVERRIDE" music video, released through Samsung Securities' official YouTube channel, reached 1 million views within a week and has since surpassed 2.5 million, drawing considerable attention.

The name LUMINA was inspired by the English word "Luminous." Its concept centers on four members with different lights and personalities coming together to create one powerful spectrum. Samsung Securities said the music video by its self-produced AI idol group reached this number of views in a short time, demonstrating new possibilities for content in the financial sector.

LUMINA's debut song "OVERRIDE" combines electronica and dance music with sharp electronic sounds and fast-paced techno rhythms. It conveys a message of breaking away from convention and moving beyond limitations and preconceptions. Through the repeated, powerful "Override" chorus, the song delivers an empowering message: rather than following the answers prescribed by the world, set your own standards and unlock possibilities through your own choices. This message also resonates with rapidly evolving AI trends.

Samsung Securities said the project was significant because it conveyed messages about finance and investment, which can seem difficult and rigid, through K-pop, a popular form of content.

Starting with this music video, the company plans to move away from the conventional approach of hiring celebrities as models and develop its own AI idol as a new digital communications asset. It will expand its points of contact with customers by releasing future LUMINA music videos and short-form challenges, while also featuring the group as an MC for various types of content. The company aims to develop LUMINA into a distinctive communications icon unique to Samsung Securities that connects finance and entertainment, rather than a one-off promotional character.

A Samsung Securities representative said, "Samsung Securities brings financial expertise from the real world, while LUMINA conveys the diverse possibilities and inspiration contained within it. This is a new initiative." The representative added, "Going forward, we will use LUMINA as a medium to communicate with key future customers in a more approachable and dynamic way."
