Detailed Analysis
While influencer attendance and post quantity decreased, overall EMV increased, indicating a shift towards a 'less but better' talent strategy. Brands are leveraging the power of celebrity fandoms, especially those surrounding K-Pop, K-Drama, and Thai-Drama stars, to generate substantial media value. The peripheral effect of these fandoms, encompassing media coverage, street style photography, and online fan activity, creates an afterglow of media value that extends far beyond the celebrity's individual posts.
