At the New York Comic Con 2025, Webtoon Entertainment, the parent company of Naver Webtoon, made a significant impact with its large booth next to the Marvel exhibit. The convention, held from October 9 to 12 at the Javits Convention Center, is one of North America's biggest pop culture events, drawing over 200,000 attendees annually. The presence of webtoons, originally a niche culture in North America, is rapidly growing as a popular content medium. Webtoon Entertainment showcased various programs and engaged with fans through signings by North American creators like Violet Karim and Yue Yang. Recently, Webtoon Entertainment partnered with Disney to develop a new digital comics platform, further boosting its profile. With the inclusion of other Korean companies in the joint exhibition and attractions like the 'K-pop Demon Hunters' fan meet, the event highlighted the expanding influence of Korean content and technology overseas.
