KakaoTalk

Channels and tools

KakaoTalk is the messaging app of South Korea, used by almost the whole population.

In Korea it is not experienced as a simple chat: it is a national identity social network, with far higher engagement than the social networks of the Meta group, and it integrates payments, bookings, banking services and e-commerce functions, including sending physical gifts. People buy products there, and for this reason it has become the country's flagship social network: anyone exporting cosmetics to Korea has to pass through it.
