How to leverage K-content opportunity for a brand marketing, viewpoint by
In this panel discussion, Arthur delves into the evolving landscape of K-content marketing from a non-Korean expert’s perspective.

They can capitalize on both creator and price arbitrage, making brand-creator partnerships more accessible and affordable than ever. In this new era, the power now leans towards the brands, opening doors for collaborations of all scales.
