C.Contract balance

 

The balance of contract assets and liabilities from contracts with customers as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 is as follows:

 

                   
        December 31,
2025
    December 31,
2024
 
        (In thousands of Korean won)  
Current            
Contract assets (Unbilled revenue)       1,065,645       -  
Contract liabilities (Deferred revenue)         1,252,195       -  
Non-current                    
Contract liabilities (Deferred revenue)         650,000       -  

 

The Company recognizes unbilled receivables from media production service as contract assets. The Company capitalizes the cost associated with the production, including development costs, direct costs, and production overhead per title as prepayments and prepaid expenses. The Company amortizes the capitalized asset in ‘Cost of revenues’ on the combined statements of comprehensive income based on the percentage-of-completion for each contract.

 

The contract liabilities primarily relate to the advance consideration received from customers for media production service, for which revenue is recognized over time. This will be recognized as revenue when the Company satisfies the performance obligations.
