Kakao Project 100 Season 2 Underway... 'Tapgol GD' Yang Joon-il Participates

[Asia Economy Reporter Buaeri] Kakao's social contribution foundation Kakao Impact announced on the 19th that it will proceed with the beta Season 2 of 'Kakao Project 100.'

Project 100, which opened last September, allows users to directly create or participate in projects on topics they want to practice, supporting participants to encourage and cheer each other while completing missions over 100 days.

Users can participate in projects by paying a practice deposit. The deposit is refunded according to the extent of mission completion, and any remaining deposit from uncompleted missions can be donated through Kakao's social contribution platform 'Kakao Together Value (Kakao Gatigachi)'.

For Season 2, projects can be created by accessing Kakao Project 100 until the 20th, and project participation applications are accepted until the 22nd. Participants will certify their daily mission completion for the projects they joined from the 23rd until June 30th, continuing the practices they set as their goals.

In Season 2, the practice deposit has been lowered from 100,000 KRW to 10,000 KRW to allow users to participate in multiple projects without burden. The user interface (UI) has been significantly improved for convenience. Since project creation began on February 24, about 520 projects have been created, with 15,000 users participating so far.

Project 100 collaborates with experts from various fields such as environmental activists, artists, non-profit organizations, and athletes to encourage user participation and ensure project diversity. Projects that received great responses and quickly closed recruitment include environmental practice projects by plastic-free solo environmental activist Go Geumsuk, sign language learning projects by HandSpeak?a group of deaf artists?covering sign language rap and sign language ballad, and a project delivering a soulful word with singer Yang Joon-il.

A Kakao Impact official said, "According to a survey of Season 1 participants, over 95% expressed that they would recommend Project 100 to acquaintances, receiving positive evaluations from users, which is increasing interest and response for Season 2," adding, "We will continue to improve the platform so that small actions can lead to positive social changes."
