KT Season, Seocho Era Begins... Jang Dae-jin "Will Present Content That Satisfies Customers"
First Day in New Headquarters... Employee Town Hall Meeting
[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] KT Season, a core pillar of KT Group's media and content strategy, has established its base in Seocho-dong, Seoul, and plans to strengthen its online video service (OTT) offerings in the second half of the year.
On the first day of moving into the new office in Sinsa-dong, Seocho-gu, Seoul, KT Season CEO Jang Dae-jin (photo) announced the lineup of content scheduled to air on 'Season' in the second half of this year, stating, "We will consistently present content that satisfies our customers."
At 11 a.m. on the same day, CEO Jang plans to hold a town hall meeting with employees to share strategic directions and vision. All company employees, from content acquisition to marketing, service, and management, will work at the new office.
KT Season, officially launched last month, closely collaborates with KT Studio Genie, which oversees KT Group's media and content strategy. It is also geographically adjacent to Studio Genie, which is located in Seocho-dong since April.
Original dramas produced by KT Studio Genie are also on standby for release. 'Crime Puzzle,' starring actors Yoon Kye-sang and Go Ah-sung, will be released in October. As part of exclusive OTT content, the horror film 'Rangjong' will be released this month. The original movie 'Another Record' and the romance web drama 'Part-time Melo,' both planned and produced by Season, will be released in October and December, respectively.
