Beauty & Lifestyle Partner

CLC anchors strongest across Beauty, Skincare, Luxury Fashion, with a partnership profile built for reach and credibility in those categories. It is a weaker fit for value, discount, or family-utility categories, where the positioning pulls the other way.

CLC is a seven-member K-Pop group under Cube Entertainment that debuted in 2015 and built a following across South Korea, Japan, Thailand, and Indonesia through signature tracks including "HELICOPTER," "No," and "ME. " Positioned as Versatile K-Pop Explorers, the group accumulated over 70,000 physical records sold in South Korea and cultivated a dedicated, resilient fan base. However, the group has been on hiatus since 2021, which meaningfully limits current cultural visibility and reduces the immediacy of any partnership activation.

With a 1M-strong global fandom, its deepest reach in South Korea, CLC gives partners a defined audience to activate rather than broad, unfocused reach.

Key Takeaways

  • Strongest in Beauty
  • Female-majority audience — strong beauty & cosmetics fit
  • 1M global fandom

Best-fit categories remain Beauty & Skincare, Streetwear & Apparel, and Food & Beverage, particularly for campaigns targeting younger Southeast and East Asian audiences.
