Market context

Why programmatic in South Korea

Local giants own attention

Naver and Kakao hold a large share of Korean search, messaging and content. Open-web DSP buys work best alongside, not instead of, those platforms.

The most connected audience

Korea has some of the world's fastest mobile networks and heaviest video use. Formats need to be mobile-first and video-led.

Strict personal data rules

PIPA is one of the strictest privacy laws in Asia. Targeting has to rely on consented, contextual and first-party signals.

Platforms

Google DV360

Amazon DSP

Amazon has no local store in South Korea, so we use Amazon DSP for brands already selling on Amazon abroad and for cross-border shoppers. For local reach, DV360 and Adform usually do the heavy lifting.
