As a Growing “K-Kids Contents” Player, PlayCurio (CEO Sangjun Lee) Has Successfully Achieved Entertaining and Educational Goals
December 13, 2023, SEOUL, South Korea /CNW/ — With the release of “Peet the Forest Detective,” a real-life environmental education cartoon coproduced by EBS, and “Living Exploration,” a nature inquiry content for kids coproduced by SK broadband, there has been a recent rise in the “kids’ contents” business. Sangjun Lee, the CEO, founded ‘PlayCurio’ in 2018.
“Providers of AR/VR content typically highlight their technological prowess. ‘Fun’ is what we believe counts. If children become bored with fancy technology, it is useless. Which is larger, a tiger or a lion, do you think?
CEO Lee asked the question, grinned and gave out paper cards featuring a tiger and a lion. The images of the tiger and lion materialized on the screen like holograms when he used the camera on his smartphone to scan the card.
“Most people believe that the lion is larger, but when you use augmented reality to view them, you can see that the tiger is larger. Our ‘comparison of item size’ technique, which allows one to estimate an animal’s true size, is patented. Kids’ favorite creatures, dinosaurs, are easy to compare in size. Every time you read an animal’s entry in an encyclopaedia, we’ve introduced an exciting function called ‘gathering’ cards,” he continued.
Based on his prior experience as a regular father and developer of children’s entertainment, the business was founded.
