Cultural Context
Korea was an early NFT hotspot — domestic giants like Kakao and Naver launched their own NFT marketplaces (Klip Drops, LINE NFT), and idol agencies like SM and HYBE experimented with NFT-based fan merchandise. The 2021–2022 boom brought enormous retail enthusiasm, followed by a major cool-off and regulatory scrutiny through 2024–2025. Terms like '민팅' (minting) and '지갑 연결' (wallet connection) are now familiar even to non-crypto Koreans, thanks partly to YouTube channels and variety show segments that covered the craze.
