JKT48 (read as "J. Kelvin. T. forty-eight") is an Indonesian-Japanese idol girl group whose name is derived from its based city of Jakarta and the Japanese idol group AKB48. Formed in 2011, the group is the first AKB48 sister group outside Japan and adopts the concept of "idols you can meet", before switching to "idols that will come to meet you" since April 8, 2018. The group opened their own theater in the 4th floor of fX Sudirman shopping mall in early September 2012, where fans can attend daily performances (except on Monday). The theater was built as a close replica to the AKB48 Theater in Akihabara.
While JKT48 does not restrict membership by nationality, applicants must be residents of Indonesia. As of 31 October 2022, the group has 47 individual members.
On 16 February 2013, JKT48 released its first studio album Heavy Rotation via Hits Records, a division of MNC subsidiary PT Star Media Nusantara. The group typically performs songs of AKB48 and other sister groups that are translated into Indonesian. The group released their first original single, Rapsodi, in January 2020.
