The Korean Basketball League (KBL) unveiled the second season of Kakao emoticons for its official character, 'Gong-aji,' on the 15th to coincide with the opening of the 2026-2027 KCC Pro Basketball season.

According to the KBL, this emoticon set was planned under the concept of "Gong-aji's Real-Life Over-Immersion Daily Life." A key feature is the use of live-action images of the Gong-aji character doll, moving away from the previous illustration-centric approach. It includes a variety of emotional expressions that can be used naturally not only in situations involving watching and cheering at basketball games but also in everyday conversations.

'Gong-aji Emoticon Season 2' is available for purchase through the Kakao Emoticon Shop starting on the 15th. To commemorate the launch, the KBL has prepared an online event where fans can participate. Details regarding participation methods and schedules will be announced sequentially through the official KBL Friends social media accounts.

A KBL marketing official stated, "We will continue to present diverse fan-friendly content beyond emoticons so that Gong-aji, the representative character of KBL Friends, can consistently receive love from fans both on and off the court."
