BIGBANG appointment as KASA ambassadors

Overview

The K-pop group BIGBANG has been appointed as the inaugural honorary ambassadors for the Korea AeroSpace Administration (KASA). This partnership, confirmed by KASA and YG Entertainment, seeks to utilize the group’s global influence to promote South Korea’s national space exploration programs and increase public engagement.

A central component of this role is the ‘Dream Capsule’ campaign. Through a dedicated microsite, the public is invited to submit messages and aspirations regarding the future of space. These messages will be converted into binary codes, inspired by the 1974 Arecibo Message, and loaded onto the fifth launch of South Korea’s Nuri rocket for transmission into space.
