The Contest Entities assume no responsibility or liability for any error, omission, interruption, deletion, theft or destruction, or unauthorized access to, or alteration of Submissions.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Any entrant who incorporates any intellectual property or material owned by a third party into the Submission does so at the entrant’s own risk. Without in any way limiting, expanding or amending the Platform Terms, which Platform Terms shall remain in full force and effect, if WEBTOON is duly notified that any element of a Submission provided by an entrant allegedly violates or infringes upon the rights of another person and/or receives a legally valid request to remove the affected Submission from the Website or any other website related to the Contest because of such alleged infringement, such Submission may be removed and/or the Submission may be disqualified from the Contest, as WEBTOON may determine in its discretion. Further, no entrant will be eligible to receive a prize unless WEBTOON determines, in its sole discretion, that such entrant’s Submission has been or can be sufficiently cleared for legal purposes.
Once a Submission is uploaded to the Website it may be made available on the Website for viewing by the general public and any such posting will be deemed made at the direction of the entrant. At the end of the Contest Period, a judge or group of judges selected by WEBTOON (in either case, the “Judging Panel”) will review the Submissions in each of Category A and Category B that have been received and select potential winners based on the following criteria (the “Judging Criteria”):
  • Creativity (50%);
  • Quality and entertainment value (40%); and
  • Audience impact (10%). In the event of a tie, the potential winner with the highest score in the “quality” category will be declared the potential winner. The decisions of WEBTOON and the Judging Panel with respect to all phases of the Contest are final and binding in all respects and are not subject to challenge or appeal.
Assuming a sufficient number of eligible Submissions are received, the Judging Panel will make the following selections of potential winners:

  • Grand Prize: One (1) Submission that receives the highest overall score from all Submissions across all categories will be the potential Grand Prize winner.
  • Diamond Prize: up to three (3) Submissions with the highest overall scores in Category A will be potential Diamond prize winners.
  • Platinum Prize: up to three (3) Submissions with the highest overall scores in Category B will be potential Platinum prize winners.
  • Gold Prize: up to ten (10) Submissions with the next highest overall scores in Category A will be potential Gold prize winners.
  • Silver Prize: up to ten (10) Submissions with the next highest overall scores in Category B will be potential Silver prize winners.
  • Bronze Prize: up to one hundred (100) Submissions from all Submissions with the next highest overall scores will be potential Bronze prize winners.
  • Coins Prize: up to ten thousand Submissions from all Submissions with the next highest overall scores will be potential Coins Prize winners.

Each potential winner is only eligible to win one (1) prize per Category. Potential winners will be subject to verification to confirm their compliance with these Official Rules. A potential winner will be notified by e-mail using the contact information provided at the time of entry. WEBTOON shall have no liability for any winner notification that is lost, intercepted or not received by a potential winner for any reason. If, despite reasonable efforts, a potential winner does not respond within five (5) business days after WEBTOON’s attempt to notify them, or if the prize or winner notification is returned as unclaimed or undeliverable to such potential winner, such potential winner may forfeit the applicable prize and an alternate winner may be selected based on the Judging Panel’s scores. If any potential winner is found to be ineligible, or if such potential winner has not complied with these Official Rules or declines a prize for any reason prior to award, such potential winner will be disqualified, and an alternate winner may be selected. WEBTOON may successively attempt to contact up to two (2) potential winner(s) of an applicable prize in accordance with such procedure, and if there is still no confirmed winner(s) of such applicable prize after such attempts have been made, if any, the corresponding prize may go unawarded.

Each Coins Prize will be (i) emailed via unique code for redemption, (ii) deposited into each confirmed Coins Prize winner’s Account, or (iii) delivered as WEBTOON reasonably determines, after the winners of the cash prizes are announced. WEBTOON Coins are promotional Coins that do not hold, and are not redeemable for, any "real world" monetary value, and use of such Coins are subject to the TOU. Coins Prize winners are granted a limited, non-transferable, revocable, non-exclusive license for the personal use of the Coins solely to access certain content on the WEBTOON platform.

The total ARV of all prizes awarded in this Contest is Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000).
Prizes will be awarded only if each potential prize winner fully complies with these Official Rules. All portions of the prizes are non-assignable and non-transferable. All details and other restrictions of the prizes not specified in these Official Rules will be determined by WEBTOON in its sole discretion. Except as set forth herein, no cash alternative or substitution of the prizes will be allowed, except WEBTOON reserves the right in its sole discretion to substitute prizes of comparable value if any prize listed is unavailable, in whole or in part, for any reason. In the event of any discrepancy or inconsistency between guidelines, disclosures, or other statements contained in any promotional materials for the Contest and the terms and conditions of these Official Rules, these Official Rules shall prevail, govern, and control. Each prize winner shall be solely responsible for all federal, state, provincial and/or local taxes, and the reporting consequences thereof, and for any other fees or costs associated with the applicable prizes. If required by law, WEBTOON reserves the right to withhold and remit to the appropriate taxing authorities the amount of any tax or taxes due. WEBTOON or its service providers will issue and file an IRS Form 1099 or equivalent tax withholding documentation for the retail value of any prize or other items of value transferred to each prize winner by WEBTOON in accordance with United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requirements, and WEBTOON may also share such documentation with its service providers (to perform the withholding) and with a state or local government agency as required by law. Refusal or failure of each prize winner to satisfy the requirements of all necessary and appropriate tax, withholding or other required compliance terms (including Social Security number, IRS Form W­8BEN, IRS Form W­9, or equivalent information), as determined by WEBTOON in its discretion, may result in each prize winner forfeiting the prize(s) and an alternate potential winner may be selected in accordance with these Official Rules. WEBTOON will award prizes subject to any applicable withholding taxes, and the amount of the prize transferred, as reduced by any applicable withholding taxes, will constitute full payment of the prize, as applicable.

Each potential winner will be required to execute an Affidavit of Eligibility, a Liability Release, and (where imposing such condition is legal) a Publicity Release (collectively, “Prize Claim Documents”). If any potential winner is a minor, the Prize Claim Documents will include a parental indemnity and consent agreement, the parent or legal guardian of such minor will be required to ratify and sign the Prize Claim Documents, and in lieu of awarding the prize directly to the minor, and at WEBTOON’s option, the applicable prize may be awarded to and in the name of the parent or legal guardian of such minor winner and in lieu of awarding the prize directly to the minor. If any potential winner (or, in the case of a minor, such minor winner’s parent or legal guardian) does not respond or fails or refuses to sign and return all Prize Claim Documents by the deadline specified in the prize notification, the winner may be disqualified and an alternate winner may be selected.
