Rookie K-pop groups I.O.I and Pentagon are promoting school uniform brand Elite, which has updated its website and social media with the new faces.

A number of online events are running on Elite’s Facebook page until Dec. 15, with desk calendars and external phone batteries signed by I.O.I and Pentagon members as prizes.

Among the events, one that is currently running until Nov. 30 asks students to participate in a survey about the key news they remember from this year.

Elite is also currently releasing animated GIFs of each member of 10-member group Pentagon on a daily basis.

Meanwhile, rival K-pop groups BTS and GFriend model for competing uniform brand Smart.
