- WEBTOON Entertainment Inc. (Nasdaq: WBTN) operates a leading global storytelling platform that enables creators and users to discover, create, and share digital content, primarily through webcomics and webnovels. The company's core offerings include WEBTOON, the world's largest webcomic platform featuring vertical-scroll graphical comics across diverse genres; Canvas, a self-publishing tool for aspiring creators; Originals, high-production serialized webcomics; webnovels as text-based stories; hosting services via web and mobile applications; and IP licensing for adaptations into TV, films, animation, and merchandise. It serves a community of over 900,000 creators and approximately 155 million monthly active users, targeting Gen Z and millennial audiences in the digital entertainment industry, with operations spanning the United States, Korea, Japan, and internationally; WEBTOON Entertainment was founded in 2005, is headquartered in Los Angeles, California, and functions as a subsidiary of NAVER Corporation. Recent strategic developments include a major partnership with Warner Bros. Animation announced in November 2025 to co-produce 10 fan-favorite series such as The Stellar Swordmaster, Hardcore Leveling Warrior, Down to Earth, and Elf & Warrior for global distribution, expanding WEBTOON's animation pipeline with support from its U.S.-based WEBTOON Productions and Japanese IP teams. In addition, WEBTOON forged an expanded alliance with Disney, encompassing a new digital comics platform integrating over 35,000 titles from Marvel, Star Wars, Disney, Pixar, and 20th Century Studios—built and operated by WEBTOON with bundled access for Disney+ subscribers—and a non-binding agreement for Disney to acquire a 2% equity stake. The company went public via IPO on June 27, 2024, and has launched innovative features like Video Episodes on its English platform (short-form animated content from 14 Originals) and Cuts (UGC animated videos under two minutes) on its Korean platform in 2025, alongside new personalization tools to enhance webcomic discovery.
