, “Kakao participated in the event to provide a new character intellectual property (IP) experience offline in time for the summer vacation season. Following their participation in the Seoul Festa in May, they planned a space called ‘La Chundo Chubi Beach’ with the theme ‘Meeting Kakao Friends at Gwanghwamun’ at Gwanghwamun Square.”,

, ‘During the event, the water park zone behind the statue of King Sejong in Gwanghwamun Square will be decorated with Kakao Friends. They have set up two water slides around 7.5m high adorned with characters like Ryan and Chun-sik wearing swim caps and goggles, along with a 40m long large swimming pool at the center, a photo zone, and an event zone, providing a colorful event for visitors to enjoy.’,
,
, ‘The water play facilities will operate five times a day from 1 pm to 8 pm. Except for those who received advance admission tickets through the Seoul Summer Beach pre-registration event, visitors can enter on a first-come, first-served basis on-site.’,
,
, “The photo zones ‘La Chundo Station’ and ‘La Chun Tanning Zone’ are designed to enjoy a vacation atmosphere. They provide photo tickets and goods upon entry, featuring a concept with oversized Ryan and Chun-sik dressed in summer costumes, enjoying tanning. They will also set up an ‘Apeulun and Chun-sik Bus’ photo zone. In the ‘Jordi Event Zone’, a special event where visitors can meet a new character, Jordi, will also be held.”,
