<p>Barunson Labs, a Korean blockchain-based platform for culture and arts, has <a href="https://www.edaily.co.kr/news/read?newsId&#61;03624406635803424&amp;mediaCodeNo&#61;257&amp;OutLnkChk&#61;Y" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">joined forces</a> with Web3 firm EQBR Holdings to offer film-based security tokens, aiming to bridge the realms of finance and cinema both in Korea and overseas.</p><h2 id="header-0">Barunson’s diversified endeavors</h2><p>Barunson Group, the parent company of Barunson Labs, has been a major leader in various cultural ventures involving film, drama, virtual reality, games and the metaverse. Notably, its production subsidiary Barunson E&amp;A is known for its investment in “Parasite,” the critically acclaimed movie that won four Oscars at the 92nd Academy Awards.</p><p>Earlier this year, Barunson Labs applied for a financial regulatory sandbox — a program under Korea’s Financial Services Commission that offers a special and provisional regulatory exemption for financial services that have been recognized for their innovativeness — to launch security tokens based on films. To gain approval, the firm also released the beta version of CRADE, a blockchain-based service that manages the flow of funds during the film production process.</p><h2 id="header-1">EQBR’s strategic expansion</h2><p>Meanwhile, EQBR has been developing a security token offering (STO) platform called Apanda Partners — a joint venture established with Shinhan Securities and Aegis Asset Management that received approval as a financial regulatory sandbox in December of last year. Apanda Partners’ Singaporean branch has since established a localized platform catered to the country’s securities firms and prepared for listing on the country’s regulated investment and trading platform SDAX. Barunson Labs and EQBR plan to list their first security token based on Korean content on SDAX in the first half of next year.</p><p>“Starting with our collaboration with Barunson Labs, we are developing a process to make diverse assets available as products on various security token platforms built on EQBR’s technology,” explained Lee Hyun-ki, CEO of EQBR. “We will not simply talk about our technological possibilities but also demonstrate them through real-life cases, proving that investments can be diversified through the use of blockchain technology and smart contracts.”</p><p>Lee is also set to participate in the STO Summit hosted by local news outlet Edaily from Thursday to Saturday (local time), where he will deliver a presentation on the application of STO solutions to actual financial services and the future trajectory of this trend. He will also introduce EQBR’s STO platform.</p><p>“We are taking a dual-track strategy by simultaneously launching security token products in Korea and in overseas markets like Singapore, which is one step closer to institutionalization,” said Kang Shin-beom, CEO of Barunson Labs. He added that the company would launch more innovative investment products in the future that are poised to boost the status of Korean cultural and entertainment content on the global stage.</p>
