What It Is
Bunnkr is a discovery service for flipping through singers' official shorts and original photo shoots. You enter viewing from the discovery home, pick your favorite in a taste game where eight shots face off, and compare the result with friends. A separate miniroom lets you keep music playing while you decorate a room.
The Problem
Short videos and photos are everywhere, and so is the fatigue of choosing what to watch. Endless feeds end with nothing but scrolling, and nothing records which of the things you saw were actually your taste. Even when you want to talk taste with friends, there is no reason to look at the same screen together.
Bunnkr turned choosing itself into play. A tournament that leaves one of eight reveals your taste, and sending the same bracket to a friend lets you compare each other's picks.
Who It Is For
- K-pop and J-pop fans: people who want to watch official shorts and photos of singers they like back to back
- People who enjoy flipping through photos: people who browse shoots picked by mood and save the ones they like
- People who compete on taste with friends: people who want to compare picks from the same bracket and talk about them
- Fans of the old miniroom homepage era: people who enjoy decorating their own room with music playing
Core Flow
- Discovery home: tap whatever catches your eye on a home page where singers' official shorts and original shoots sit in separate rows.
- Watch: flip through shorts and photos in a vertical feed, and keep viewing shoots by mood.
- Taste game: make seven picks from an eight-shot bracket until one remains.
- Share the result: send the result page to a friend, who joins with the same bracket and compares with the sender's pick at the end.
- Miniroom: keep music playing while choosing and decorating a room.
Key Features
- Discovery home: singer shorts and shoots are shown as separate lists, and a taste game in progress appears as "continue".
- Taste game: an eight-shot tournament, result sharing, friends joining the same bracket, and a side-by-side comparison of both picks, all in one flow.
- Vertical feed: official channel shorts, licensed singer photos and original shoots, shuffled into a new order on every visit.
- Shoot gallery: choose by mood filter, and save or share from one line under each card. Turn on background music matched to the mood if you like.
- Singer directory: Korean and Japanese singers grouped as girl groups, boy groups, female singers, male singers and mixed groups.
- Miniroom: decorate your room with free rooms, rooms unlocked with credits and 42 parts, and visit other people's rooms.
- Three languages: Korean, English and Japanese.
Product Decisions
- Make choosing the play: instead of an endless feed, the entrance is a tournament where every pick leaves a result.
- Sharing leads to joining: the first button on a result page joins the same bracket, so a friend does not just look at the result but makes their own picks from the same bracket.
- Real singers and originals never mix: singer photos and original shoots never share a grid and are kept in separate lists, so real people and original characters are never confused.
- Introduce only confirmed facts: singer profiles use only collected facts, and groups without a group photo show members' photos separately. A group with only some members confirmed is never presented as complete.
- Records stay on the device first: recent games and saved photos stay in the browser without signing in. Even in a browser that blocks storage, the current game can be finished.
Revenue Model
- Miniroom credits: paid rooms and parts are unlocked with the family's shared credits. Signing up gives 2 credits.
- Ads: ad slots sit on the miniroom's TV screen and within the shoot gallery. In the gallery, an ad appears only after at least six photos have been shown.
Next Hypotheses
- What share of people who start a taste game from the discovery home finish all the picks.
- Whether friends who receive a share join the same bracket and go on to compare.
- Whether people who enjoy the taste game and gallery move on to decorate a room in the miniroom.
