South Korea is well known for its K-pop and street dancing culture, but imagine dancing with your favorite idol anywhere, anytime.<\/p>\n
This is made possible by one of South Korea’s leading telecom operators. LG Uplus recently introduced an augmented reality (AR) service that allows users to dance along with a K-pop star by using a 5G smartphone.<\/p>\n
Our video host Laura Zheng will take you to find out how we can do it.<\/p>\n
This app is called AR Live. It features a range of AR content allowing users to see prerecorded moving holographic avatars. While using the app, users can record themselves dancing right next to a virtual image of their favorite star.<\/p>\n
Compared with 4G services, the 5G technology can ensure more deeply integrated and exciting AR experiences with its massive connection density and lower latency.<\/p>\n
Dancer in the video: Groove-K<\/p>\n
Host Laura Zheng: That’s a very nice pose. So, how do you feel about using this app?<\/p>\n
Groove-K: I play a lot of games on my smartphone, and I think this app is more fun than playing games on the phone. It actually feels like I’m dancing with real idols. It’s fun in a new way.<\/p>\n
Laura Zheng: How do you feel about 5G, and how do you think it will change our lives?<\/p>\n
Groove-K: When I get a new phone, there’s only so much to be impressed by, but this app seems to have a wider range of activities, and there’s also a lot more to see. It has more fun functions than other apps.<\/p>\n
Groove-K: I used to practice the choreography of my idols by watching TV, but now, I can practice with them at the same time using this app. This is so much better. Using a smartphone, I can now watch, memorize, and practice the dance routine. It’s much more convenient.<\/p>\n
