Suseong Webtoon Achieves 70% Revenue Growth to 92.8 Billion Won in 2025, Turns Operating Profit Positive View original image

Suseong Webtoon continued its performance improvement trend last year by not only expanding its revenue, but also turning an operating profit.


According to the audit report disclosed by the company on March 20, 2026, consolidated sales for 2025 reached 92,774,430,000 won, marking an increase of approximately 69.5% compared to 54,734,930,000 won in the previous year. During the same period, operating profit turned positive, recording 5,213,050,000 won.


The company attributed this achievement to the inclusion of key subsidiaries and the expansion of its content business. A company representative stated, "With the increase in sales, our operating profit structure recovered, leading to an overall improvement in our business fundamentals." The representative added, "The performance of our webtoon platform 'Toomics' was reflected on a consolidated basis, contributing significantly to revenue growth. With the annual results now fully incorporated, we have secured a foundation for further growth."


This growth is analyzed to stem from a business structure centered on the global webtoon platform. Suseong Webtoon, through its subsidiary Toomics, provides subscription-based webtoon services to users worldwide. Toomics operates in 11 languages, including English, Chinese, Japanese, French, and Spanish, and has secured approximately 60 million global members.


Notably, about 80 to 85 percent of the company’s total sales are generated overseas, demonstrating a revenue structure based on global demand. The number of paid users is increasing, especially in the United States and Europe, and it is analyzed that the revenue structure, which is centered on payments in US dollars, could also have a positive impact on the company’s performance.


The company’s revenue model is also differentiated. Unlike the domestic webtoon market, which is centered on per-item payments, Suseong Webtoon has secured a stable revenue stream based on a monthly subscription model. The company has also reduced revenue volatility by operating both its own platform and external distribution channels, which is a notable point.



A company representative stated, "Based on our global business structure, which has a high proportion of overseas sales, we are achieving both external growth and improved profitability." The representative added, "We will continue this growth trend by expanding our global user base and strengthening our content competitiveness."
