Seoul Exchange and Story Protocol has been concluded an agreement to build the first special blockchain exchange of Korea for Tokenized cultural and intellectual property assets. The collaboration outlines how Seoul Exchange will launch a regulated RWA trading platform that is completely powered by the blockchain infrastructure of the story for the next 3 years.
Seoul Exchange is a fintech company that offers real estate services for not -mentioned shares of startups and venture companies through its not -mentioned securities trade platform “Seoul Exchange”. It is one of only two platforms that have been officially selected by the Korean government to operate under the financial regulatory sandbox. Seoul Exchange has received investments from leading Korean and worldwide VCs such as hashed, softbank ventures, capstone partners and POSCO technology -investments.
According to the agreement, Seoul Exchange will use the story as the only infrastructure provider for registering and arranging tokenized offers. For a first term 3 years, all offers about the stock market ranging from Music IP and web tone to patents and private effects will be included on the Story network, which are composite architecture and native $ IP -Token economy.
IP is expected to be the leading category Real-World Assets (RWA) of Korea, with story positioned as the exclusive chain for the IP tokenization of Seoul Exchange. Story is a low-1 blockchain that is specially built to make intellectual property programmable. Story Supported by $ 136 million from A16Z, Polychain and Samsung Ventures, launched its mainnet at the beginning of 2025 and quickly became a leading infrastructure for Tokenized IP.
Korea is the home of some of the world’s most successful creative exports, but generating monetizing IP is limited to insiders. This new trading platform wants to change that. By bringing IP onchain, Story and Seoul Exchange unlock a new class of fractional, transparent and globally accessible digital effects. Global IP is appreciated on more than $ 80 trillion, Yet most of the illiquid and inaccessible remains. This partnership is intended to unlock IP and other Real-World assets (RWAS) via blockchain, which means that global investors can possess, act and earn high-quality creative works.
Korean storytellers have captured the imagination of the world. Worldwide hits such as K-pop Demon Hunter became Netflix’s most popular film of all time with 236 million views in the first nine weeks. Parasite won the best photo at the Oscars. Squid game became Netflix’s most viewed show. Baby Shark is a global phenomenon. But behind this success is a structural problem: makers rarely maintain ownership or share in the long term. Platforms such as Netflix own the IP. Studios work on thin margins. Even if the Korean content goes worldwide, the value flows elsewhere. This imbalance has led to a growing debate in Korea, with many voices that evoke a new model with which makers can separate themselves from the dependence on financing in advance and pre-production.
Story introduces such an alternative through content tokenization. By enabling global fans to participate directly in fundraising, production companies can retain ownership of their IP and instead enter into distribution agreements that ensure fairer and more sustainable income models. This approach not only protects the rights of the makers, but also opens the door to a new economy -driven economy in entertainment.
The platform will combine the accessibility of the retail trade with compliance with institutional quality among Korean regulations. If a Korean Stablecoin is approved by supervisors, the platform is designed to support its integration, it can be integrated for regulation in the native currency, which is further in accordance with the domestic financial infrastructure.
Tokenized -content, including music rights, game -universe, can be stated and traded by both retail and institutional investors, all within the evolving STO -regulating sandbox of Korea.
Story Protocol is the world’s first layer-1 blockchain specially built for IP. With this IP can be registered, given in a license and monitored in real time, whereby royalties and terms of use are directly embedded in the tokenized representation of creative assets.
Supported by investors, including A16Z, Polychain, Hashed and Samsung Ventures, Story launched his mainstje in early 2025 and quickly expanded its ecosystem and a diverse music collectives, Defi protocols and global entertainment ips. Story, for example, has already started to Token the big K-culture IP, including the music rights of leading K-pop artists (BTS, Blackpink, Psy, Bigbang) and worldwide artists (Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus)
The integration of Seoul Exchange makes the story the de facto infrastructure for the next wave of cooled Rwas from Korea, and positions it as the blockchain gateway for cultural capital.
This partnership bridges the thriving cultural industries of Korea with the capital markets of the world.
The platform will give priority to assets with strong fan engagement and in the long term value potential, and will also support future integrations with financial products, remix licenses and governance layers, which brings programmability for rather static IP rights.
