Business Description
Proven by 2B views, TOMTOMI is scaling into an animation franchise.
With 20 videos over 10M views, 25 over 5M and 200 over 1M, its five-language YouTube channels have built strong audiences across North America, Europe and Southeast Asia. TV, OTT and iQIYI extend reach. 15 Haksan titles, SAYPEN, toys and the Great People soundbook—a Kyobo bestseller sold out through five batches—prove screen-to-product potential.
The next stage is TOMTOMI: The Seed Star Explorers, a 13 x 10-minute 2D preschool fantasy adventure. Powered by the sun, moon, stars, clouds and wind, friends explore Earth and discover confidence, curiosity, desire, wisdom and fear as Seed Stars. Pre-production and pilot development support a model linking its global fanbase and multilingual channels to broadcast, OTT and digital rights, publishing, toys, education and experiential licensing. STARONE seeks investment, co-production, distribution and pre-sales partners to grow TOMTOMI into a global animation franchise.
