JKT 48 New sister group of AKB 48 from indonesia
JKT48 are "twin sisters" of AKB48, Japanese idol group that has been popular throughout Asia. Following the success of AKB48, Indonesia will soon launch JKT48. Wait for our presence! ![]() it is an official project by dentsu and AKS. This group is affiliated directly with AKB48. Their base will obviously be in Jakarta, Indonesia. Auditions are divided into 2 sessions. The first session will be held from 22 to 26 August 2011 and the second session will be held from 5 to 16 September 2011. Participants must be female, aged 13 - 18 years old, Indonesian citizen, attractive, talented and photogenic. Here's what they wrote on their facebook page. Dear All, JKT48 is still a work in progress. Rest assured that JKT48 is officially affiliated with AKB48. A press conference will be held on November to make matters clear to the public. Please keep on supporting JKT48. Warm Regards, JKT48
i'll wait and see how it's going turn out to be.... ![]() ![]()

They're not copying if they affiliate themselves with AKB48.
And stop overreacting, it's not like they're some Satanic group that is set-out to destroy the world, jeez. But yeah, before you know it each country will have a ___48 group xD

I didn't get the point of debuting here while we have soooooooo many KPop groups wannabes -_-" It could be a way of Japan putting their hands in Indonesia first, because Korea is coming from Thailand ^ It's just that somehow putting 48 group x Indonesia = Not a good mixture I don't know if they'll adapt but they should, because things like lingerie wearing group of girls for PV is lowly regard in Indonesian's public eye imo |

There hasn't been an official press release of this so there's still a lot of doubt but there have been a few reports of girls trying out. I don't doubt this is true since Aki-P has stated that he plans on selling his "48 concept" around the world and TWN48 was confirmed (though there hasn't been any news about it since). I don't know what the popular music sound/trend is in Indonesia but I'm interested in what kind of sound and image this group will have.

I wonder if this would work in my country, girlgroups seems to be a trend here lately, I never pay attention on local music but I recognized some of them being very popular among my schoolmates.. I don't think wearing bikinis and lingeries will get you fans here in Indonesia, it's inappropiate here.
But tbh I don't think it's a good idea to have a ***48 group here.. why don't they do a Singaporean version ? They have a theatre there already, right ? Last edited by y_nathz; 25th August 2011 at 03:09 PM. |

^i think it's because singapore market is small, not everyone buy cds here, so it's risky to market a group here with so many members.
the company would be making a lose.... some singapore singers can have a celebration after selling 2000 copies here... so yeah, the market is just THAT small. if a group of 30+ members were to share the earnings, it's very very little, not to mention the cost of packaging the girls. very risky

if I was Indonesian, 13-18 years old, I'd participate for sure XD
it seems like AKB48 wants to create an army setting their affiliates around the world lol.

I'm Indonesian, and I'm skeptical about this group.
I know it's official, but just... I think it's gonna be a disaster. |

Just saying, with the success of all the 48's in Japan, i think the people behind them know what their getting into, and have probably carefully analyzed music trends in various asian countries and whats appropriate in which country and picked indonesia as the best place to start their expansion

I don't think it's that bad if they're doing the whole "theater" thing that AKB does...or did...or whatever...
cause not a lot of people do that. I think people forget about that when thinking of AKB.

^Yeah, thanks for mentioning that. It's the reason there's a handful of xxx48 groups in Japan already. It's to reach out to more fans locally by establishing theaters in different areas. That's their whole concept: "Idols you can meet".
============== Anyone still doubting the legitimacy of JKT48 can put those thoughts to rest. Official Website: http://www.jkt48.com/index-jp.html Entry from AKB Official Blog: http://ameblo.jp/akihabara48/entry-11014534628.html Quote:
It'll be a group adapted to Indonesian culture and will make it's debut by the end of the year. So if all goes well, they'll be the first overseas xxx48 group... should be very very interesting to see how they fare.
