The “Webtoons” are South Korean comics published on the Internet.

Just like TV series or manga, new episodes are released once a week. According to the South Korean government agency KOCCA, the global value of the webtoon market increased from 52.9 billion won in 2010 to more than 880 billion won in 2019. This value is constantly increasing as many of these webtoons are later adapted into movies and series such as the famous Kingdom series released on Netflix in 2019.
