Representative Korean anime works include "Pompon Pororo" and "Symbia Part", which ranked number one among children's programs.♪

Anime produced in Korea has the distinctive feature of being "a lot of anime for children"!

Japanese anime is made from manga, so many works that adults can enjoy ^^

On the other hand, it seems that there is a background that manga culture does not develop in Korea, where the domestic market is small.

Furthermore, since we are also considering the Western market, many of the works are produced using the trendy CG method called "photoreal"!

 

Compared to Japanese anime, can you convey the feeling of a three-dimensional artwork?

"For children" and "photoreal" are the distinctive features of Korean anime culture ^^

On the other hand, Japanese anime is popular among adults.♪

Demon Slayer and Jujutsu Kaisen, which were all the rage in Japan, are also extremely popular in Korea.

"Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba the Movie: Mugen Train" released in January 2021 has attracted over 2 million viewers in about four months, making it a hot topic!

It seems that not only young men were seen in the cinemas, but also many women and families.

It is said that anime can be viewed on subscriptions such as Netflix, and that in Korea, anime culture has changed from "otaku" to "trendy"!
