OpenAI establishes its third Asian outpost in Seoul, signaling South Korea's emergence as a critical AI hub. The MOVE capitalizes on the nation's rapid adoption of generative AI tools, with Korea now ranking as ChatGPT's second-largest subscription market globally. Corporate partnerships with Samsung, SK Group, and Kakao complement academic ties to Seoul National University, creating a multifaceted growth platform.
Market traction metrics reveal explosive demand—weekly active users quadrupled year-over-year while premium subscriptions tripled.
