Lịch sử
[sửa | sửa mã nguồn]Lee founded the company as a startup incubator, using a variety of equity-based swaps and investments to roll-up software businesses in South Korea.[1] Yello Mobile's approach was a new one for South Korea at the time but various copy cats emerged very quickly.[2]
Over a period of 6 years, the company acquired over 94 startup companies in their SMATO (Shopping, Media, Advertisement, Travel and Online-to-Offline) categories.[3]
While revenue increased from 68 million won (US$60,463) to 527 billion won (US$468 million),[khi nào?] it faced headwinds from lawsuits with investors and financial challenges.[3][4] The company pulled their initial public offering from the KOSDAQ for these reasons.
In February 2019, the company announced that Lee had resigned as CEO[5] amidst rumors of bankruptcy proceedings and embezzlement accusations.[5][6]
