Wysiwyg Studios, a publicly-traded company headquartered in Seoul, South Korea, operates as a comprehensive media and entertainment enterprise. Founded on April 15, 2016, the company established itself in the content production market and was subsequently listed on the KOSDAQ on December 20, 2018. The firm's core business revolves around the production of content for movies, videos, and broadcast programs, with a specialization in computer graphics (CG) and visual effects (VFX). Its service offerings extend to animation, interactive media, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR).

The company's name is an acronym for "What You See Is What You Get," reflecting its focus on creating visual stories for the global film and television market. A subsidiary of Com2uS, which holds a significant stake, Wysiwyg Studios functions as a key player in the Korean VFX industry. The company's business model is centered on providing video technology and production services for a range of media including movies, dramas, and animated features. It has strategically expanded its portfolio through the acquisition of subsidiaries involved in drama and movie production, as well as a web novel IP company, to create a one-stop content platform. This vertical integration allows for involvement in content planning, investment, production, and distribution.

Wysiwyg Studios has worked on a number of notable projects, including the movie "Space Sweepers" (titled "Victory" in some listings) and dramas such as "If you like it, it rings," "Wedding," and "Ireland". The company has also ventured into the metaverse market, leveraging its expertise in realistic content to explore opportunities in retail, commerce, and entertainment, including the production of extended reality-based media and virtual events. Key figures associated with the company include CEO Sungwan Cho (also listed as Jo Seong-wan) and Park Kwan-woo, who has also been cited as CEO. Through strategic alliances with companies in China, Hollywood, and Southeast Asia, Wysiwyg Studios aims to further its global market presence.
