Webtoon writer and broadcaster Kim Poong revealed that he was previously the CEO of a character company.

On the afternoon of the 17th, a video titled 'Trend-savvy low-speed old man | EP. 95 Kim Poong | Salon Drip 2' was released on the YouTube channel TEO.

That day, Jang Doyoun introduced Kim Poong as a 'popup YouTuber,' drawing attention. In response, Kim Poong explained, "I don’t have a channel; I just do fun things."

Jang Doyoun asked, "Don’t you want to do fun things with your channel?" and Kim Poong candidly said, "I don’t have the ability to expand my influence. I used to run a company. I had a character company in my twenties. After doing it, I realized I couldn’t manage it. I’m just a player. Or maybe just an advisor."

Regarding the character company he previously managed, he mentioned, "When Cyworld started, I entered with it and disappeared when it did. I sold MiniMe and skins. It was okay back then. At that time, I saw the future. I thought, 'Can this make money?' After a month, it vanished, and I bought things with acorns. It was like coins now," adding, "Well, they paid me, so I sent the character, and that turned out to be profitable."
