Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency (KOTRA) Jakarta Introduces Indie Brands to Indonesian Millennials
The
development of South Korean products from various industries in Indonesia is
growing very rapidly. This cannot be separated from the great influence of
social media which makes the Korean wave very popular. Not only millennials,
the influence of South Korean culture is now reaching a wider group of people.
The
Korean wave is synonymous with the world of entertainment such as music
(K-Pop), drama (K-Drama), and entertainment programs (variety shows) that are
packaged attractively and also display culture to the daily lives of the actors
in the entertainment world. It is undeniable that this is one of the reasons
why the Korean wave is very popular with the Indonesian people.
KOTRA
(Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency) Jakarta as a South Korean government
organization under the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Indonesia has the
task of being a bridge between Korean companies and Indonesian companies, as
well as promoting Korean products to be better known in the Indonesian market.
, Since its establishment in 1964, KOTRA Jakarta has focused more on the B2B
field through various activities, such as organizing business matchmaking
events and trade missions and exhibitions. However, since 2018, KOTRA has tried
to penetrate the B2C world. This is motivated by the increasingly widespread
Korean culture among the general public, which affects the potential for the
development of Korean products in the Indonesian market.
K-Lifestyle
in ASEAN is the second 020 exhibition project for KOTRA Jakarta after K-Beauty
in ASEAN in 2020. KOTRA Jakarta tries to make the Korean wave trend which is
now popular among Indonesian people as a reference for introducing various
products from South Korea in Indonesia. Currently, Indonesian people are
increasingly familiar with various Korean-inspired trends, ranging from beauty
products (K-Beauty), clothing and accessories (K-Fashion), and food (K-Food).
Therefore, this year KOTRA Jakarta, in collaboration with KTO Jakarta, will
hold an event that combines all these aspects.
Through
K-Lifestyle in ASEAN 2021 which is planned to be held at Central Park Mall
Jakarta this November, KOTRA Jakarta wants to introduce indie brand products
that are not yet present in Indonesia. People can buy these products for the
first time at a pretty tempting discount. In addition, visitors also don't need
to worry because famous Korean brands will also be present to complete the
K-Lifestyle in ASEAN event.
In
addition to exhibitions and sales of indie brands, K-Lifestyle in ASEAN 2021 is
also planned to present several entertainment events, such as talk shows,
beauty classes, and cooking demonstrations. In addition to offline events, the
K-Lifestyle in ASEAN 2021 series also includes B2B online meetings and
webinars. In addition, KOTRA Jakarta also cooperates with iStyle.id, so that
people can buy products from brands that participate in K-Lifestyle through
iStyle.id with various attractive promos.
As
one of the leading bridges in connecting Korean companies with companies and
consumers in Indonesia, KOTRA Jakarta will continue to try to filter out brands
that have the desire to enter the Indonesian market. This is so that KOTRA
Jakarta can continue to introduce new brands with unique products, in
accordance with trends in the Indonesian market, and of course having good
quality. The K-Lifestyle in ASEAN 2021 event is expected to be the right place
for Korean product lovers to get to know more products from South Korea.
