🦄WEBTOON gifting creators Korea trip + Tiny Bookshop update

It pays to be a comic artist sometimes.

The Korea-based comic company announced its plan for 2026 which includes three large pieces:

1. Improved creator support
2. An in-person residency based in LA
3. A VIP recognition program where the prize is a trip to their Korea headquarters

WEBTOON Creator Residency Program

Twice a year, English-language service WEBTOON original creators may also be invited to a two-week in-person workshop in Los Angeles, California.

Residency participants will work closely with WEBTOON editors in dedicated story-building sessions, attend development workshops, and meet with teams across the company for a deeper look at WEBTOON’s offerings and ecosystem. Designed to give creators the time, focus, and hands-on support they need to refine their craft, WEBTOON will hold two Creator Residencies in 2026

Applications for the first session will open on December 18, 2025. You can apply via the WEBTOON Creator Portal.

WEBTOON VIP Recognition program provides a Korea trip​

Select creators will be invited to WEBTOON's Korean headquarters to see the "home of webcomics" as well as "meet industry leaders, and connect with global talent."
