Falcon is a compact-sized massage chair that incorporates Robo Walking technology, where the two legs operate independently.
On the morning of the same day, Bodyfriend held a launch show for 'Falcon' on the 1st floor of its headquarters in Dogok-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. Falcon is a compact-sized massage chair that incorporates Robo Walking technology, with two legs operating independently. It has drastically reduced its size to meet the demand from customers seeking smaller sizes. It is space-efficient even when placed in the living rooms of small to medium-sized apartments, or in the bedrooms and study rooms of medium to large apartments.
The core technology of Falcon is the Robo Mode. The two legs move independently, massaging core muscles that were previously difficult to stimulate. It features eight Robo Mode programs, including 'Psoas Muscle Relaxation.' Falcon’s Robo Walking technology offers a wider range of motion and applies leg motors that are twice as fast as those in last year’s Phantom Robo, making it more dynamic.
Additionally, it is equipped with 27 automatic massage programs that provide care for specific areas such as the neck and shoulders, waist and hips, feet and legs, as well as health care that relaxes muscles and comforts the body, mental care with music, and daily care tailored to the body’s condition. There is also a function for exam students. Among the daily care programs, the exam student mode helps relieve fatigue accumulated in the neck and waist of students who sit in the chair studying all day. Before sleep, it even offers sleep care for a comfortable rest.
By using the personalized care function, users can create their desired massage combinations and register them to their user accounts. Up to seven user accounts can be created. Registered users can quickly use the massage chair without repeating body measurements.

The side panels, inspired by wing shapes, make the compact-sized Falcon appear even smaller. The white and greige colors that make up the exterior give a comfortable and warm feeling. The greige color, a blend of gray and beige, creates a modern and elegant atmosphere.
The interface, including the remote control, has also been improved compared to previous models. Fourteen pinch detection sensors are applied to the leg and rear parts to enhance safety. Even after the massage ends, users can set the chair’s posture and the position and spacing of the massage balls for complete relaxation.
The purchase price of Falcon is 2.97 million KRW, and the monthly rental fee is 49,500 KRW based on a 60-month plan. When renting, a down payment of 1.8 million KRW is paid, and if a partner card is used, the rental fee is waived for 60 months, allowing ownership after the contract ends.
