Putting creators first
Empowering our creators by protecting what they create
With great content comes great responsibility
As K-content has risen in popularity, illegal streaming and distribution have risen with it. Content piracy hurts the livelihood of creators and impacts the trust of our fans.
At Kakao Entertainment, we have a responsibility to protect creators and fans from piracy by ensuring content is shared responsibly and creators are rewarded for their work. We actively protect our intellectual property rights and those of our creators through a culture of safe and fair content consumption.
