▲ Audio social media (SNS)'Club House'


Recently, the audio social media (SNS)'ClubHouse' is getting hot reactions at home and abroad.



Club House is a voice SNS that was launched in April of last year by the American startup'Alpha Exploration'.



Silicon Valley venture capital (VC) Andrewson Horowitz has already been recognized for its corporate value of $1 billion (KRW 1.1 trillion), and has become a'Unicorn SNS'.



In the clubhouse, there are many occasions where experts in each field discuss a topic lightly.



The charm of the clubhouse lies in'improvement' and'equality'.



Anyone can become a'speaker' by pressing a button that raises their hand.



You can see new employees in their 20s asking questions to the leading startup representatives in Korea, and celebrities and fans chatting.



On the 6th, when a room was opened on the subject of'What do working women need,' there was a scene where executive-level female seniors from large corporations and start-ups gave advice on social life to younger women in society.



In order to listen to the lecture, you have to pay tens of thousands of won and take the time to participate in the event, so you can talk freely with celebrities.



A user in their twenties said, "You can get a lot more insights than most talk concerts in just two hours at the club house."



Not only are rooms like forums dealing with heavy topics open, but as users increase, the types of rooms are rapidly diversifying.



Rooms where you can talk only with vocal chords are gaining popularity, and there are'blind chat rooms','meditation rooms', and'no talking rooms' where you can only follow each other without any conversation.



As the number of users increases, the clubhouse has more fun features.



You can change the skin color of your hand by pressing and holding the button for 1 to 2 seconds to participate as a speaker.



If you want to share a picture while having a conversation, you can change your profile.



When this kind of culture emerged, the developer added a function that connects directly to the photo album by pressing and holding the profile for 1-2 seconds.



Clubhouses can only be joined by receiving an'invite'.



More and more people are selling clubhouse invitations in second-hand trading apps such as'Carrot Market'.



Until the beginning of this month, the price was 10,000 won per sheet, but as of yesterday (the 8th), the price rose to 20,000-25,000 won.



More and more people are buying used iPhones for clubhouses.



This is because it is currently only available for iPhone and iPad.



Clubhouses are also connected to real connections.



There are also times when they make dinner appointments after having conversations with startup executives at the clubhouse.
