A Korea & APAC-focused GTM firm, accelerator, and ecosystem partner. Since 2018, 140+ Korea market entries designed and executed.
Korea & APAC market entry, designed and run end-to-end. The channels we build stay with you.
We back the builders we run Korea for — same upside, same downside, same room.
A Korea-native accelerator and ecosystem partner — community, capital, and connections through a single operator.
A sample of the named engagements. Each one ran community, content, or distribution through us — same room, same cycle. Direct references scoped to your sector are available on request.
8 of 34+ named engagements. Full roster →
See all on /work →The same channels either pull Korean users into your product — or scatter your spend across impressions. The difference is whether there's a real plan behind it. We've worked every side of this — building, betting, operating— so the plan we write is one we'd stake our own money on.
Co-founded and shipped AI + InfoFi projects from zero — tokenomics, launch, ops hand-off included. We've lived the 0→1.
↳ Built it.
Five-year angel track record. Co-invested into deals led by tier-1 VCs. We read projects with a check-writer's discipline, not a vendor's.
↳ Bet on it.
Since 2018. Community, KOL, AMA, content — the full Korean stack, in-house, by people in Seoul.
↳ Run it.
Most foreign projects fail in Korea because they treat Korea as a translation problem. It isn't. It's a culture.
Korean crypto doesn't move on Discord and X. It moves on KakaoTalk, Coinpan, Cobak, Korean Telegram. Miss these and you don't exist in Korea — regardless of how loud you are in English.
Top-3 daily volume globally. Korean retail keeps trading in bear markets when other regions sleep — the audience doesn't disappear between cycles.
Not Discord. Not X. KakaoTalk Open Chat, Korean Telegram, Coinpan, Cobak. Run only global channels and you're invisible to the people who actually trade your token.
Korean users skim threads. They read review-style infographics and detail-heavy one-pagers. You don't translate copy here — you redesign the format.
No local context, no local voice. Korean retail scrolls past every time. Translation is not localization.
Mercenaries farm points until the incentives stop, then dump. What's left is no one to talk to and a dead Telegram.
Agencies hand over screenshot decks of impressions nobody acted on. You're paying for vanity, not awareness.
Not a translation job.
We operate in the original.
Every engagement runs on three movements. The mechanics — channels, partners, sequencing — we walk through in the call.
Before any tactics, the plan. We figure out what your product actually is to a Korean user, who should be using it — not just trading it — and the message that closes the perception gap. Everything that follows is built on that read. A wrong market read costs more than no campaign at all.
Then the channels and KOLs — placed against the plan, not sprayed. Community, KOL, AMA, creator video, press: one desk runs briefing, approval, posting, and reporting.
First use. Then repeat use. Then volume grounded in behavior, not speculation. We report what converted — not impression counts — and every cycle sharpens the next. The last line in every report: what we'd do next if it were our own token.
Each one below is execution behind a plan — not a line item you pick off a menu. The Korean channels we build are yours to keep — not rented reach that resets when you stop paying.
Korean TG, KakaoTalk, and Discord — run as a room Korean users can actually live in, not a channel that goes quiet after launch.
Your updates turned into Korean content that travels across X, Naver, Telegram, and community channels — so the project keeps showing up consistently, not in one-off scrambles.
70+ Korean TG KOL channels, crypto-X voices, and creators — matched to your category, goal, and budget, and run end-to-end so reach becomes trust, not noise.
Korean-language AMAs and Spaces, hosted end-to-end. 150+ run. Direct trust with the community, not passive impressions.
Korean face-on-camera explainers and recaps from creators your users already follow — the human trust layer translated text can't reach.
A Korean-language footprint across Naver, Tistory, crypto media, and key communities — so the project is searchable, discussed, and visible beyond its own channels.
One monthly deliverable. Links and screenshots of everything published. Reach, engagement, community sentiment, KOL performance notes. Then the part most reports skip: what worked, what didn't, and what to change next month.

A logo wall proves nothing. Eight years of public Korean output — archived posts, AMA recaps, native-format content, mainstream press — is what you actually audit before signing. Every number here is an output of design, not volume we bought.
From per-project breakdowns to AMA recaps. The body of work is public — read it before you hire us.
Review-style infographic — the format Korean retail actually reads. Translated tweets don't live here.
A project we operated saw its NFT presale sell out in 3 seconds — picked up by Korean IT media the same day.
Anyone can list KOL channels.
Not everyone can name 140 launches
and still be in the same Seoul room.
Korean Web3 agencies founded after 2021 can't claim cycle continuity. Founders who left in the bear market can't claim "same team." Logo-wall portfolios can't survive the question "name 20." Time and naming are the parts that can't be faked.
Our own Web3 quest and campaign platform for Korea, run by Minted Labs. KOL reach turns into verifiable on-chain engagement — quests, leaderboards, and live dashboards instead of screenshots. Real campaigns you can measure from briefing to wallet.
Direct desks at the publications Korean retail actually reads. Real relationships at the exchanges they actually trade on. Not a marketplace — a Rolodex earned over eight years.
Direct relationships. Not one-off intros.
Founder-led intro. 30 minutes. We tell you whether Korea is the right bet for your project right now — and if it isn't, we'll say so before you spend a dollar.
