Multi-device campaign creative for one of Korea's largest e-commerce platforms.
Swedish Gaston Luga had minimal presence in
Korea before I joined. Within a year we grew to thousands of monthly visitors resulting in hundreds
of orders — and Korea became their 2nd largest foreign market.
On the left, real data from a Google Data Studio report covering a full year (sales figures kept
confidential). The trend is clear. When Korea-specific marketing works, it really works.
My strategy: Naver-first, influencer-led, every post briefed and curated.
Influencers had creative freedom — but they never had to guess what to do. And it paid off
massively.

Instagram and YouTube build awareness. Naver builds trust — and
closes the sale.
In Korea, a buyer sees your product on Instagram, then searches Naver
for an in-depth review before purchasing. That is how the funnel works.
Miss Naver, and you are paying for awareness you never convert.
Naver content also has a long shelf life. A well-placed blog post keeps
driving traffic for months. Instagram disappears in 48 hours. YouTube
works — but Korean influencers demand high fees, making it the most
expensive channel per conversion.
Start with Naver. Layer Instagram for reach. Use YouTube
selectively.

Influencer traffic converts better when the checkout does too.
Korean buyers expect to pay with Kakao Pay and Naver Pay — not just a credit card form.
I helped integrate both into Gaston Luga's Korean checkout. It is not a simple process
without local representation, but it is worth it. Payment friction kills conversions that
good content worked hard to earn.
Shipping matters too. I worked with Maxpeed
Korea
to make delivery faster and more reliable for Korean customers. Koreans expect fast,
trackable shipping — a slow delivery from Sweden is a one-star review waiting to happen.
Awareness gets buyers to the site. Localized payments and fast shipping close the sale.
All three working together is what moved the numbers.
Content brings them in. Infrastructure keeps them.
Good marketing without good design is just noise. I design the creative that makes the strategy land
— campaign pages, brand systems, UX flows, social ads, and everything in between.
E-commerce campaigns at TMON, CJ Corporation, and 11st Street in Korea. Brand identity and UX at
Hyper Island in Sweden. And occasionally, candles and handmade bags sold on Naver via my own
influencer campaigns — because the best way to understand a channel is to use it yourself.

Korea runs on Naver, not Google. I build the organic content strategy, run Naver paid search campaigns, and translate the data into insights EU clients actually understand.
