ENHYPEN transforms into mystery storytellers. Having previously used vampire motifs in their music, anticipation is high for their story where they become vampires. HYBE released a trailer for 'The Blood Diary' through the official video podcast channel 'STAN:A.' 'The Blood Diary' is the first program presented by 'STAN:A.' It is a mystery reasoning podcast where the members of ENHYPEN, transformed into vampires, tell mysterious stories and discern fiction from reality within each other's tales. Set on a night with a full moon, vampires gather to reenact strange events recorded in their diaries over centuries. The previously released trailer begins with members sitting in gothic chairs, placing candles in pitch-black darkness. The trailer features Johnwon, Jay, Jake, and Sunu, who share mysterious stories recorded in their diaries in a space reminiscent of a vampire's lair. The members weave their tales with realistic performances, revealing tension in the cold atmosphere surrounding them. A game to find the 'Blood Liar' who told fictional stories then begins, shifting the atmosphere. The transformation from a mysterious ghost story meeting to an intense reasoning battle heightens anticipation for the main program. The main episode will premiere on April 3 at 8 PM, lasting about 30 minutes, and will be released bi-weekly at the same time thereafter. Members will appear in new unit combinations each time. HYBE Media Studio stated, 'We maximized immersion by adding storytelling from a vampire's perspective and reasoning elements for viewers to participate in the program.' They plan to present interesting episodes each time, appealing not only to K-POP fandoms but also to viewers who enjoy mystery reasoning content. The video podcast channel 'STAN:A' was established through a global content partnership between HYBE and Spotify. 'STAN:A' means a place that incorporates stories for all fans who truly love a subject. Content planning and production for the channel is handled by HYBE Media Studio, while Spotify supports the globalization of the content. HYBE Media Studio plans to continue showcasing new formats of video podcasts featuring diverse individuals encompassing music and culture, starting with 'The Blood Diary.' They have previously produced variety shows and documentaries for HYBE MUSIC GROUP artists, enhancing their content planning and production capabilities. Through the launch of the 'STAN:A' channel, they aim to create new opportunities for diverse storytelling, expand production areas, and diversify their audience.
