YouTuber Kim Seon-tae Unveils First Office, Seeks Advertising Opportunities

Former 'Chungju Man' Kim Seon-tae has revealed his new office space, inviting advertising inquiries.

On the 11th, Kim Seon-tae's YouTube channel featured a video titled 'Promoting My First Office in Life.'

Kim Seon-tae shared, "I've secured my first office. At 650,000 KRW per month, it's not particularly cheap in Chungju. This isn't to belittle Chungju, but it's genuinely not on the cheaper side. For a bit more, you could rent a small apartment. I'm pleased with the condition. It gets plenty of sunlight," he said. He continued, "Initially, I considered a studio. But if things go well and I need staff, having a space with separate areas would be beneficial. It's a bit of a gamble, an upfront investment."

Kim Seon-tae mentioned, "For the record, many have offered gifts. However, I don't think office supplies or equipment are necessary." He emphasized, "Revealing the office might seem like a request to fill the fridge, but that's not the case at all." He plans to keep the office minimalistic, stating, "I don't need gifts. Instead, I'd prefer advertising." He added, "You might be curious about what the first advertisement will be. Stay tuned."

Previously, an online document titled 'Kim Seon-tae Channel Introduction' went viral. According to the document, the advertising and licensing rates for Kim Seon-tae's YouTube channel (based on a one-month contract) are 100 million KRW for branded content and highlight shorts, 80 million KRW for branded content, 50 million KRW for standalone shorts content, and 30 million KRW for simple product placements.
