Sumgo Surpasses 33 Million Cumulative Estimates... "Impact of Expanding Contactless Services"

Lifestyle Service Matching Platform 'Soomgo'
Registered Experts Surpass 700,000
Secures 32 Billion KRW Series C Investment

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bo-kyung] Brave Mobile's matching platform, Soomgo, has surpassed 33 million cumulative estimates. Currently, about 700,000 experts are registered on Soomgo.

On the 11th, Brave Mobile announced that Soomgo's cumulative number of estimates exceeded 33 million as of last month. Soomgo, short for "Soom-eun Gosu" (Hidden Expert), is a lifestyle service platform offering services across a wide range of areas including moving, cleaning, interior design, lessons, and event business. Soomgo's estimates serve as the link between experts and customers, with each estimate sent representing a match between expert and customer.

Amid increased demand for home and living services after COVID-19 and the expansion of non-face-to-face lesson services, Soomgo's number of estimates achieved last year's total performance in just the first half of this year. As the MZ generation's perspective on work changes, the number of experts challenging multiple jobs (N-jobs) by doing what they love has steadily increased. In the first half of this year, 120,000 experts registered on Soomgo.

Robin Kim, CEO of Brave Mobile, said, "We hope that both experts and customers connect within the Soomgo ecosystem to improve their quality of life," adding, "In the near future, Soomgo will become a platform that provides value across customers' lifestyles and experts' business areas."

Meanwhile, Soomgo was recognized for its corporate value by attracting 32 billion KRW in Series C investment last June.
