Koreaboo is an English-language web portal and media website focused on sharing K-Pop content. Launched on October 4, 2010, it has grown to become one of the largest content platforms for international K-Pop readers with over 50 million readers worldwide.[1]
The website mostly focuses on the South Korean entertainment and celebrity industries, but has expanded into reporting on trending cultural, technology, and lifestyle news to great success.
Since launching in 2010, Koreaboo has expanded its reach by producing multiple concerts, festivals, and auditions. By 2012, Koreaboo caught the attention of Korean mega-conglomerate CJ E&M and together co-founded KCON, the largest K-Pop convention held in the United States.[2]
Koreaboo is also credited with first discovering South Korean singer Wendy, who is now part of SM Entertainment's girl group Red Velvet, in 2010 during their Cube Entertainment auditions in Vancouver, Canada.[3]
