[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heeyoon] Woongjin ThinkBig announced on the 6th that it has launched the children's audiobook platform ‘Ddalgi Kong’.

According to Woongjin ThinkBig, ‘Ddalgi Kong’ is a monthly subscription audiobook service for children. Users can enjoy unlimited access to over 5,000 domestic and international children's book audio contents for 9,900 KRW per month.

Its main advantage is that it holds the largest collection of kids' content among domestic audiobook services. It offers a variety of audio content, including the world-renowned picture book series by Anthony Browne, winners of the Ragazzi Award at the Bologna Children's Book Fair, representative works by domestic children's literature authors, and Disney English audiobooks.

Additionally, Ddalgi Kong curates audiobooks tailored to the child's age and interests. Woongjin ThinkBig explained that it provides monthly learning-linked content according to the Nuri Curriculum and school curriculum, as well as recommended audiobooks by category.

It also offers customized playlists for different situations. Users can select themed lists such as ‘World Classics to Listen to in the Car with Mom and Dad’ and ‘Cool and Cozy Dreamland Stories Anytime, Anywhere,’ making it convenient to listen wherever and whenever. Furthermore, users can enjoy natural history content from the National Science Museum, audiobooks featuring popular characters, famous operas and musicals, and content about artworks.

A Woongjin ThinkBig official said, “There are many cases where audiobooks are needed to listen to with children while traveling or before bedtime, which led to the launch of Ddalgi Kong,” adding, “We hope that through over 5,000 carefully selected audio contents, parents can reduce childcare burdens and enjoy the pleasure of listening to books.”

Meanwhile, the Ddalgi Kong app is available for download on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. Woongjin ThinkBig is running a promotional event offering the first month free trial and a discounted subscription rate of 7,500 KRW per month for one month upon subscribing.
