The Taiwan Creative Content Agency (TAICCA) and the Korean Association of Musical Producers (KAMP) have signed a memorandum of understanding to increase musical theater collaboration between Taiwan and South Korea. The signing took place at the Taiwan Creative Content Fest (TCCF) in Taipei.
The agreement, organized by TAICCA—a body backed by the Ministry of Culture that promotes Taiwan’s content industries—focuses on industry exchange and co-productions. The two organizations intend to link companies, performers, and creators in both markets to encourage cross-border projects and help musicals reach audiences outside their home countries.
Erica Wang, CEO of TAICCA, stated that through this collaboration, they hope to develop new stories together, realize a shared vision of mutual benefit, and share expertise across market boundaries.
Han Seung-won, President of KAMP, expressed pleasure in witnessing this moment, stating he believes closer cooperation can open up a larger market and new business opportunities. Choi Seok-cheol, representative director of the Gimhae Cultural and Tourism Foundation in Gimhae, South Korea, attended the ceremony as a witness.
The new agreement builds on the KonTact Taiwan–Korea Musical Co-Development Program, which launched this year with South Korea as its main partner market. TAICCA stated that the program is designed to help Taiwan’s musical theater industry find international partners and move joint projects forward faster. TAICCA added that both the program and the new agreement are meant to strengthen professional networks and grow the musical theater industry across Asia.
