Biography

Formed in Seoul in 2009, CNBLUE is a South Korean pop/rock boy band that initially gained traction in Japan before achieving success in Korea. The band, known for their real instrument-playing boy band image, incorporates live instrumentation over electro-pop templates. CNBLUE's name is derived from the members' invented personalities, with "CN" standing for "Code Name" and "BLUE" representing the four members' personas.

Debuting in Japan with the mini-album Now or Never in 2009, CNBLUE later found success in Korea with hits like "I'm a Loner." The band's career saw them oscillating between Japan and Korea, with their popularity soaring in Japan, notably with the chart-topping album Code Name Blue in 2012. CNBLUE's international fame grew with the rise of K-pop's global appeal, leading to successful tours and performances worldwide, including a notable show at London's O2 in 2012.

CNBLUE speaks to 18-24 & 25-34 audiences with measurable traction in THAILAND, INDONESIA, PHILIPPINES. Composition is heavily female (81%), which tightens creative strategy without sacrificing scale. Tiktok is the reach engine (28,800 avg views per post), and Tiktok supplies credible back-and-forth with core fans. Affinity clusters near leading lifestyle names, suggesting category lift in streetwear, music platforms, and lifestyle products. The result is a partnership that feels earned, not forced.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low

How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
