Aniplus Inc. (Korean: 주식회사 애니플러스; RR: Jusighoesa Aniplus) is a South Korean television channel and anime distributor. Founded in 2004, the company also operates different businesses including a video on demand platform and a merchandising arm in its own country.

Aniplus is owned by JJ MediaWorks, a VOD service provider. It distributes its programs outside its own platforms to clients such as Netflix and Coupang Play.[2]

History

[edit]

The company originally started as a television station called SBN TV. Originally owned by C& Group, its parent company dissolved due to a liquidity crisis. JJ MediaWorks acquired the station in July 2009 and renamed the company to Aniplus Inc. the following month. The company launched the Aniplus television channel on December 7, 2009.[3] Seung-Taek Jeon, the CEO of JJ MediaWorks, became the new CEO of Aniplus following the acquisition.[4]

Aniplus launched an independent television feed for Southeast Asia called Aniplus Asia in 2013.[5] The following year, Aniplus established its subsidiary Plus Media Networks Asia in Singapore to handle anime and Korean drama distribution for the Southeast Asian market.[1]

In 2014, Aniplus entered the art exhibition business by establishing a subsidiary named Media & Art.[6]

On February 7, 2020, Aniplus became listed on KOSDAQ.[7] In the same month, the company fully acquired Korean drama production company WeMad to diversify its portfolio.[3]

On February 4, 2022, advertising agency NEGO Company became a subsidiary of Aniplus.[8]

On August 17, 2022, industrial design company Rowoon Company was acquired by Aniplus to strengthen its IP commercialization.[9] Aniplus has 67.11% stake in the company.[1]

On November 8, 2022, private equity firm Keistone Partners announced that it and Aniplus would jointly acquire 87% stake in animation streaming company Laftel Inc. from RIDI Corporation, the owner of Manta webtoon platform for 80 billion won. RIDI would invest 10 billion won in Aniplus to support the platform's growth.[10] Aniplus owns 56.38% stake in Laftel, with 12.5% of it being a call option.[1]

In April 2023, Aniplus had entered an acquisition deal of Animax, the second largest animation broadcaster and rival competitor in South Korea, with KC Global Media Entertainment. The deal was approved in June of the same year. The numbers were not disclosed, but sources close to the transaction suggested it was about 46 billion won.[11] The deal made Aniplus the biggest anime distributor in South Korea.[1]

On October 4, 2024, it was announced that Aniplus Korea will discontinue some of its key core services effective December 31 due to various internal and external factors including the changes in landscape of media environment that focuses more on its stronger business venture in the area. The services that may affect the discountinuation include its live broadcast, VOD streaming and download functionalities; while the rest of owned and operated assets such as Laftel, Animax Korea and other offerings will remain unaffected.[12]
