Sidewalk Entertainment, a Seoul, South Korea-based AI startup company, announced on October 30 that their global K-Pop Dance AI Platform, STEPIN, has exceeded 200,000 downloads. The app has achieved 135,000 member registrations and over 280,000 dance gameplays. This demonstrates the rapid growth and active user participation in the app.
STEPIN has gained popularity in international K-Pop dance communities, particularly in Indonesia, the Philippines, and the United States. It has attracted significant interest in the U.S., with high usage among local users. The app, developed with AI technology, allows users to easily learn and enjoy K-Pop dances anywhere and at any time.
The app currently offers two gameplay modes: Practice, for dance learning, and Challenge, for score evaluation. However, by the end of this year, the app plans to implement large-scale updates, including the addition of Random Play Dance and Real-time Dance Battle features. These new features will provide users with an even wider range of K-Pop dance content.
Kibong Kook, CEO of Sidewalk Entertainment, commented, “Sidewalk’s real-time motion tracking AI technology precisely tracks and evaluates human movements using only a smartphone without any additional equipment. We are currently preparing new features, such as Random Play Dance and Real-time Battles, to create a new online gaming culture for the global K-pop fandom.”
Furthermore, the app aims to launch a massive friend invitation event for users to enjoy delightful moments with family and friends during the year-end festivities.
