Korean Startup Fleapop
Have you ever heard of the Z generation? Babies who were born after 1995 are called the Z generation. These Z generation babies are already in their 20’s. Now there is a market targeted just for the Z generation. Korean startup FLEAPOP is a marketplace that targets the preference of the 20’s and communicates with them.
Korean startup FLEAPOP distinctively analyzes the characteristics of the Z generation and uses it to fulfill their needs. The Z generation has their own characteristics. Therefore, they regard pricing more importantly than brand authority. Furthermore, rather than the brand authority, they prefer to have qualified products and prioritize function first.
Also, even though they have been exposed to digital machines and online applications, they not only like online shopping but also enjoy offline shopping. They still like looking at the products and feeling them for themselves. In addition, it also is regarded as a time to share some precious memories with friends. They share it through their Social Media. What they want is not only to buy things. They want something they can fully enjoy.
