Kakao to shut KakaoTV service on June 30 after 9 years

Kakao will shut its video service KakaoTV on June 30, ending operations nine years after it was first introduced in 2017.

Ahead of the shutdown, Kakao will run a video backup process for creators and viewers. Users can back up uploaded videos from March 9 through June 30. New channel creation and VOD uploads will be fully suspended from June 1.
