The K-Comics World exhibition is bringing the fascinating universe of Korean comics and webtoons to international audiences through a comprehensive showcase running from September 11 to November 14, 2025. The exhibition, currently being held at the Korean Cultural Center in Hungary, is organized jointly by the Korean Cultural Centers, the Korea Creative Content Agency (KOCCA), the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of the Republic of Korea, and features popular works including "Your Letter" and "Dark Moon: The Blood Altar."

Webtoons, a distinctive form of digital comics that originated in Korea, have been specifically optimized for reading on both computers and mobile devices. These digital publications have captured global attention with their compelling narratives and distinctive characters, achieving remarkable success not only within Korea but also in international markets. The popularity of Korean digital comics continues to expand worldwide, with many stories being adapted into films, television series, and video games, demonstrating their versatility and broad appeal.

The 2025 K-Comics World exhibition represents an ambitious international tour that will visit five countries: Egypt (Cairo), China (Shanghai), Canada (Ottawa), Hungary (Budapest), and Japan (Osaka). Each exhibition location features carefully curated Korean webtoon works that are specifically tailored to match the interests and cultural preferences of local audiences. Beyond static displays, the exhibitions incorporate engaging author programs and interactive content designed to make the world of webtoons accessible and enjoyable for visitors of all backgrounds.

At the Budapest location, visitors can explore two distinctive webtoons that represent different aspects of Korean digital storytelling. "Your Letter" by Cho Hyeon A, despite consisting of only 10 episodes, has quickly gained favor among readers due to its lyrical writing style and emotionally resonant narrative. The second featured work, "Dark Moon: The Blood Altar," represents an innovative collaboration between the entertainment industry and webtoon creators, having been developed in partnership with the popular K-pop boy band ENHYPEN and published by Hybe, a major multinational entertainment company.

The K-Comics World exhibition serves as a powerful demonstration of how contemporary Korean comics successfully communicate with diverse audiences across the globe. Through interactive experiences and carefully curated content, visitors gain valuable insights into both the current state and future prospects of Korean webtoons. The exhibition also provides an immersive experience that allows guests to explore the rich and diverse world of Korean creative content, showcasing the cultural impact and artistic merit of this uniquely Korean medium that has transformed the global digital comics landscape.
