Daoncreative

Daoncreative is a Seoul-based webtoon and web novel publisher that specializes in serialized IP built for both domestic release and international scale. The company says it was established in August 2014 and later folded into the wider Kakao Entertainment group, giving it more muscle as a supplier of noble comics, adaptation-ready stories, and merchandise-friendly originals. The distribution footprint is the real tell. As of June 2025, Daoncreative said 397 titles had launched on KakaoPage, 226 were actively serialized on Piccoma in Japan, 115 were running on Tapas in North America, and 67 were live in Germany and France. That makes it a meaningful production node inside the same international IP lane that supports Kakao Webtoon and keeps Korean-origin story worlds moving across platforms, regions, and eventually adaptation deals.
