Abstract
This study aims to describe the implementation of Somethinc’s digital marketing communication activities through the use of K-Pop stars as brand ambassadors on the Instagram account @somethincofficial during the period of January to December 2022. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with content observation techniques. The data used are secondary data, including Instagram posts, media articles, and scholarly journals. A total of 71 posts were purposively selected for analysis due to their inclusion of K-Pop figures such as NCT Dream and Han So Hee. The findings show that Somethinc’s digital marketing communication activities are carried out consistently and in a structured manner, tailored to the characteristics of a young audience. The presence of K-Pop stars in Instagram content enhances visual appeal, strengthens communication messages, and builds emotional closeness between the brand and its audience. Visual elements, interactive copywriting styles, and content scheduling strategies are key factors that support audience engagement and reinforce brand identity on social media. These findings highlight that the use of KPop stars as brand ambassadors reflects a relevant communication strategy in fostering a sense of connection with Gen Z and Millennial audiences.
