Manga Arabia, part of the Saudi Research and Media Group, announced on Tuesday that it was publishing a selection of webtoons in Arabic on its Manga Arabia Youth.
The step reflects Manga Arabia's dedication to bring unique Korean works to appeal to audiences across the Arab world.
Manga Arabia is on a mission to combat piracy by providing authorized original content through legitimate frameworks. It has partnered with Korean Kidari Studio and V-bros to offer an inspiring cultural experience, recognizing webtoons as an important cultural tool that is popular among the new generation of readers.
Webtoons represented a goal that Manga Arabia had been striving to achieve, alongside a series of successes over the years, including the launch of the Manga Arabia Youth and Manga Arabia Kids magazines in both print and digital formats.
The user base of these magazines' apps has surpassed 12 million users across more than 195 countries, with over 220 distribution points in the Arab world, boasting more than 250,000 printed copies each month.
In a move aimed at expanding the company's international influence, Manga Arabia also launched Manga International, based in Tokyo, Japan.
