Fans' support for the group RESCENE is spreading across generations and borders. A behind-the-scenes video of the KakaoTalk ad shoot recorded approximately 640,000 views within a day of its release, drawing attention to both the members' everyday charm and the fandom's solidarity.

As of the afternoon of the 16th, RESCENE ranked 17th in the Best Group category of the October Netizens Awards and 6th in the Globe Netizens Awards. Its entry into the top ranks of the Globe Netizens Awards is particularly notable. With domestic and international fans' interest continuing, attention is focused on how RESCENE's rankings will trend in both awards.

■ 640,000 Views and 2,330 Comments in One Day

The video '[BASE NOTES] RESCENE KakaoTalk Ad Behind,' released on YouTube on the 16th, recorded 640,000 views and 2,330 comments. The members' natural expressions, conversations, and camaraderie captured during the ad shoot drew fans' attention. The video includes scenes of the members standing side by side holding bouquets and chatting comfortably outdoors. Unlike their stage performances, the video is characterized by the friendliness revealed in an unadorned atmosphere.

■ Fan Devotion Extending to Album Purchases and Voting

Fans' reactions went beyond simple praise for looks or viewing the video. Interest extended to album purchases, music show support, and year-end awards voting to substantively back RESCENE's activities. One fan said they bought a singer's album for the first time in their life, signed up for Mnet, and even voted. They said purchasing KakaoTalk emoticons and collecting photocards were also firsts, and sent support hoping the members would become even happier.

There were also opinions about album sales. Some fans suggested setting realistic goals rather than expecting excessively high sales, and supporting within reasonable limits. This is noteworthy as it shows that even within the fandom, there is a mood of considering the sustainability of their support.

The emotional satisfaction RESCENE gives fans was also evident throughout the comments. Various stories followed, from fans who watch the members' videos to end their day to fans who say they gain strength in daily life thanks to RESCENE. Comments in Japanese also appeared. One overseas fan said that while it is difficult to see KakaoTalk ads in Japan, they were grateful to be able to watch the behind-the-scenes shoot video. This is a sign that not only domestic fans but also overseas viewers are interested in this content.

■ 'Off-Stage Friendliness' as the Group's Competitive Edge

The affection shown by fans across borders and generations can be seen as another competitive strength of RESCENE. In particular, its current 6th-place ranking in the Globe Netizens Awards is a point worth examining alongside overseas fans' reactions. Having ranked 17th in the Netizens Awards Best Group category, attention is focused on how fans' interest will change going forward.

What stands out is how fans consume RESCENE. They do not stop at listening to music but pay attention to the members' daily lives and growth, participating directly in support. Album purchases and voting are also examples of this affection turning into concrete action.

In the video, the members created a comfortable atmosphere through conversation and expressions alone, without elaborate stage setups. The fact that fans respond to such moments suggests that off-stage friendliness is also an important element composing the group's appeal.

■ Growth Difficult to Judge... Comprehensive Metrics Needed

However, it is difficult to conclude that overall public recognition or fandom size has expanded based solely on the view count or comments of a single video. To assess actual growth, multiple indicators such as album sales, music streaming performance, concerts, and fandom activities must be examined together.

Nevertheless, the way fans participated in this behind-the-scenes video is meaningful. Fans who bought an album for the first time, middle-aged and older fans learning how to vote, and overseas viewers waiting for the video are all supporting RESCENE in their own ways. Attention is focused on how this voluntary participation will affect future Netizens Awards rankings.

Attention is now on whether RESCENE, currently ranked 6th in the Globe Netizens Awards, can surpass its current position and create new changes in the remaining period, and whether this buzz can translate into results from sustained musical activities. With fans' love and voluntary participation forming across generations, eyes are on where this fan devotion will lead in the October Netizens Awards and the Globe Netizens Awards.
