Ten minutes to leave a lasting impression and make viewers crave for more. That's what this web drama start-up aims to do as it puts the final touches on the pilot episode of a new eight-part drama. "The series we're working on right now is about the lives of people who work at an advertising company. Each episode explores different themes: horror‚ parody and more. Most web dramas focus on romance‚ but we introduce diverse themes and it's been received very well. The idea behind it is making the story relatable." The start-up is one of the many content developers supported by the Korean government‚ which offers production facilities and business counseling in order to fuel the fast-growing content industry. Numerous players‚ from media giants to independent creators‚ have jumped into the field‚ cooking up short‚ snappy dramas‚ many of which feature popular Korean celebrities‚ and garnering a huge global fan base. "Only ten web drama series were made in 2013‚ but the production rate has doubled each year since then. In terms of clicks‚ the average has grown about 18 times from 2013 to last year." (Stand-up) "To celebrate some of the most-loved web series from Korea and around the world‚ the three-day K-Web Fest has opened at the Coex Convention Center in southern Seoul‚ introducing more than 100 works." From drama screenings and red carpet appearances to networking forums‚ it's not just an event for avid fans. It's also a pathway for local content developers seeking to go beyond the Korean market and enter the global arena. "Really good chance for creators‚ even with a small budget. Whoever has a good idea‚ you can make an interesting subject. We don't need big time distributors. We can show and communicate directly with the audience through this event." "My series won an award in the K-Web Fest‚ which then led it to the LA Web Fest‚ where it received a lot of international attention. Now‚ it will be shown in Spain and Brazil." The event also offers a selection of virtual reality dramas‚ which experts say could generate sizeable opportunities both at home and abroad. "Most VR content development has been concentrated in gaming or experiential displays. So integrating the technology into Korea's strong web dramas and video content could be a market-winning strategy." Taking on the challenge‚ a production company in Seoul launched a romantic drama series that allows viewers to step into the scenes‚ allowing them to fully immerse themselves in the story. "Most VR content in Korea was developed by researchers‚ so there's a lack of diversity. That's where we stepped in -- to produce new drama content‚ featuring a 360-degree view for our first series. However‚ there wasn't any interaction between the actors and the audience‚ so that's what we'll work on in the future‚ using VR features." To support such efforts‚ the Korean government has laid out a variety of measures. It offers more than 100-thousand U.S. dollars in grants for web drama production‚ 18-million for VR content and tax incentives and support for research and development. Still‚ experts have pointed to a need for more comprehensive support. "Financial aid and fostering content developers and start-ups -- these three areas need support. Moreover‚ it's crucial that the government specifies and invests in key areas of strength to create concrete success models with competent developers. Since it's an evolving industry‚ the policies need to be flexible and yet able to accommodate any issues that arise." With creative storytelling methods and state-of-the-art technology‚ Korean web series developers are working to bring their stories to life for a
