Toyou's Dream,
The Oldest, Biggest, and the Most Experienced,
And thus the Best Webtoon Production Company
Founded in 2009, Toyou's Dream is a webtoon company that has produced around 530 titles so far. Currently offering 78 works across 20 platforms, we are Korea's number-one webtoon producer and publisher.
Our top works include the ever-growing, ongoing trilogy of <Tong>, <Dokgo>, and <Blood Rain> all based on an interconnected universe, along with <Shark>, <Cleaner K>, and <Polar Night>. We not only offer content services across Korean and global platforms, but are also actively co-creating and exporting webtoons, as well as video content based on webtoon IPs, with our partners in Japan, China, North America, and Europe.
In 2021, we established Studio Toyou, a movie production house, to rise further as a webtoon IP-based, comprehensive content provider. <Tong Memories>, <Dokgo Rewind>, <Item>, and <Shark> prove our experience in adapting webtoon IPs into video format. We are a producer of varied content, freely crossing boundaries of media types.
