📢 [STATEMENT] This is not related to MADEIN — but it must be addressed.
The Seven Pact stands firm in protecting idols’ rights and dignity. Today, we want to raise awareness about a disturbing development involving Rainbow Bridge World (RBW) and Klleon Inc., the distributor of the AI chatbot app ALMIGO.
Originally launched under the name CreChat and canceled after public backlash in 2023, RBW has now rebranded and revived the project as ALMIGO, introducing a new feature that allows users to engage in “spicy” (suggestive or sexualized) conversations with AI-generated deepfake avatars of real idols.
💬 This is not innovation — this is exploitation.
Using deepfake technology to simulate real artists’ faces and personalities — and monetizing it through inappropriate interactions — is a blatant violation of:
•❌ Digital consent and image rights
•❌ AI ethics and responsible technology development
•❌ Artists’ safety and mental health
•❌ Basic human dignity
🎤 Artists under RBW and affiliates include:
MAMAMOO, ONEUS, PURPLE KISS, PLAVE (co-managed via VLAST), and others.

🚨 We urge fans and concerned individuals to report the ALMIGO app, distributed by Klleon Inc., on platforms such as Google Play and the Apple App Store under categories like:
•“Sexual content involving real people”
•“Inappropriate for children”
•“Impersonation/deepfake”
•“Privacy violations”
💡 This is not just about one app or company. It is about defending the fundamental boundaries between real people and artificial commodification.
Artists are not digital products. No company should reduce them to programmable fantasies for profit.
