Based on the number of funding openings by category, 'Food', which includes meat and fruit, accounted for the largest share at 62%. This was followed by 'Health Functional Foods (15%)' such as red ginseng and vitamins, and 'Beauty Products (11%)' including skincare and bath products.


In the food category, the three items Hanwoo, Yakgwa, and Shine Muscat accounted for a high proportion of 34%. Among fruit items, Shine Muscat attracted attention by surpassing traditional Chuseok gifts like apples and pears.

Among traditional Korean sweets, Yakgwa is very popular, exceeding 1570% of its funding goal. It appears that recent trends among younger generations have influenced this. Salt is also popular as a Chuseok gift. The 'Mineral Salt' introduced through Wadiz funding drew attention by achieving 2150% of its funding goal.



A Wadiz representative said, "Because we always open special exhibitions one step ahead considering the reward period after funding, we can read seasonal trends first on Wadiz."
