Samsung Securities has generated over 3 million YouTube views with its four-member AI K-pop girl group LUMINA, whose debut music video passed the milestone about five weeks after release. The brokerage created the group to solve marketing staffing hurdles in South Korea, avoiding the high costs and scheduling friction of human celebrities. Financial institutions are increasingly turning to generative media to produce thousands of promotional clips annually without traditional talent constraints.
