In June, Webtoon Entertainment celebrated going public by sounding the closing bell at the Nasdaq exchange

Ooooh that's why now they stopped all the free coins promotions and also stopped paying all small creators in the canvas series.

They just needed to pump the monthly active user count to make it more palatable to the bag holders

Webtoon is a giant sinking boat. Employees are sharing their horror story inside it and boy does it not sound good.
