NHN Link will provide the infrastructure and service expertise of “Ticketlink,” one of Korea’s leading ticketing platforms, and leverage this foundation to participate in the investment and co-production of global K-POP tours and large-scale performance projects. MuseM will be responsible for securing K-POP artist IP and planning content, its core areas of strength, while also taking charge of performance, merchandise, and exhibition production, as well as global project planning, with the aim of maximizing synergy between the two companies.
Over the past year, MuseM and NHN Link have laid the groundwork for deeper collaboration through a series of successful joint projects totaling approximately KRW 20 billion. This official agreement will serve as a basis for further expanding their investment in global K-POP performance projects.
“By combining NHN Link’s Ticketlink infrastructure and service expertise with MuseM’s strengths in securing artist IP and planning content, we aim to help shape a differentiated performance culture,” said Wang Moon-joo, CEO of NHN Link. “We will continue to pursue diverse forms of collaboration to support the success of large-scale projects, including global K-POP tours.”
“K-POP performances are evolving beyond conventional stage productions into a comprehensive industry where content, fandom, and merchandise businesses are organically connected,” said Park Soo-wang, CDO (Chief Dreaming Officer) of MuseM. “Through our strategic partnership with NHN Link, we will present new investment and production models in the global market and build a sustainable K-POP ecosystem.”
Through this partnership, NHN Link and MuseM plan to create stronger links among performance, content, merchandise, and licensing businesses, while accelerating the expansion of new forms of K-POP business that combine technology and content.
