A Peek Inside KakaoTalk’s Office [Gallery]

Kakao Office

During our previous trip to South Korea, we paid a visit to Kakao Corporation‘s office in Seongnam city. Located in an industrial hub called Pangyo Techno Valley, Kakao Corporation develops one of Asia’s top mobile messaging applications – Kakao Talk, which has reached an impressive 100 million users back in July and also recently launched a Spotify-esque platform called KakaoMusic.

Kakao has also added a range of other apps to its family such as group-chat app KakaoGroup, digital marketplace place KakaoPage, and a wildly successful gaming platform that accounts for over two-thirds of the app’s revenue.

In addition to the interview we had with CEO JB Lee and Co-CEO Sirgoo Lee, we had the opportunity to bring our little tour around the office to you! Enjoy!

I love creating great experiences for people. Also dabbles in florals and lettering, a fair bit of gaming, and enjoys lots of traveling. Happy to connect for collaborations for Tech In Asia events!
