Netflix’s World Exclusive Launch of 'Kenkadou Gaku'
Netflix has officially launched its highly anticipated series, 'Kenkadou Gaku', a live-action adaptation of the popular webtoon. This series has been made available globally as of June 11, marking a significant milestone for fans and enthusiasts of the original content. The webtoon, created by PTJ Cartoon Company and illustrated by Kim Jong-hyun, has taken the audience by storm, amassing over 5.4 billion views domestically and a staggering 22.8 billion views worldwide. This success has also earned it a spot as a recommended work by the 25th Agency for Cultural Affairs Media Arts Festival in the manga category, with a planned anime adaptation set to follow in 2024.
In celebration of the series' launch, 'LINE Manga', the electronic comic platform operated by LINE Digital Frontier, has established enticing promotional campaigns that run until June 24. This includes offering
20 free episodes of the original webtoon to encourage both existing and new readers to delve into the compelling storylines and captivating characters that have made 'Kenkadou Gaku' a hit.
Additionally, from June 11, users can enjoy gift vouchers in the 'LINE Manga' app that allows them to read
one episode for each voucher provided. There's also a
50% discount coupon available for individual episodes, applicable up to five times to enhance accessibility to the content.
To make this promotional event even more appealing, 'LINE Manga' is hosting a special
mission event. Users who complete all designated tasks on the platform will be rewarded with manga coins, adding another layer of incentive to engage with the series. These missions enhance reader interaction and offer a fun way to explore the webtoon.
Moreover, the official 'LINE Manga' account on X (formerly Twitter) is launching various promotional campaigns with lavish prizes. The first of these campaigns kicks off with a chance to win gift vouchers of 10,000 yen or exclusive 'Kenkadou Gaku' merchandise. To participate, followers simply need to retweet specific posts using the hashtag #KenkadouGakuWithLINE_Manga, making it an exciting opportunity for fans to win
In the second phase, commencing June 13, participants can win a 1,000 yen voucher or exclusive merchandise, including an original T-shirt featuring the popular line from the character Shinjo Reo, “Do you have 100 yen?”. To join, users must retweet relevant posts and share their thoughts on the 'Kenkadou Gaku' series.
As fans watch the Netflix series, it’s also the perfect time to check out the original webtoon, which invites readers into the extraordinary life of Kohta Shimura—a poor and weak protagonist who unexpectedly ventures into the world of online streaming. As he creates content around fighting, he navigates the challenges of learning how to fight, eventually growing stronger and turning the social hierarchy of his school upside down.
'LINE Manga' aims to keep enhancing and energizing the manga market with innovative offerings and engaging campaigns. Join the celebration today as 'Kenkadou Gaku' makes its global debut on Netflix, and don't forget to explore the webtoon that inspired this thrilling adaptation!
