- Assignment of a filming director and producer;
- Preliminary meeting and filming of a video within 2 days on average (time may vary by class); and

4. Editing and Post-Production

5. Subtitle
Subtitle file (SRT/VTT) production service is provided under the PRO and PREMIUM service plans. Creators that subscribe to the BASIC or PLUS service plans will have to create their own subtitle files (SRT/VTT).
6. Feedback Service
The producer in charge will provide feedback on the pre-production, filming, and editing of classes, to a limited extent.
7. Selling
7.1 The Company may sell the class separately or in the form of a subscription service, by means such as public transmission during the applicable registered service term. A Creator that is a joint owner or one of the owners of the copyright to the class registered for sale must have received prior consent from each of the other owners of the copyright with respect to the Company’s use of the copyright, in accordance with the Terms. The Company performs the rights and obligations with respect to class sale executed with the Creator only, and will not have any involvement with the internal legal disputes among the joint owners of the copyright.
7.2 There are no limits to the topic and contents of the classes that may be registered for sale by a Creator. However, the Company may suspend the registration and sale of a class that contains the following, upon giving the Creator prior notice of the reasons for suspension:
- Contents that may infringe the IPR of a third party;
- Violence, obscenity, brutality or speculation (gambling);
- Contents that infringe human rights or social ethics or that harm the reputation of a third party; or
- Advertisement or product placement that generates profits for the Creator or third party.
A Creator may submit the opinion in connection with the above, however, such opinion does not bind the Company.
7.3 The Company may request a Creator to amend (supplement) a part or all of a class in accordance with the CQCP and the Creator must comply with such request within 5 business days unless there is a justifiable reason not to comply. A failure to comply with the Company’s request may result in suspension of the selling service.
7.4 Creators must sell the class for a period of 60 months from the class launch date (date that at least 1 class video clip or chapter which is defined as the minimum unit comprising of a class has opened, except for previews) (“Minimum Selling Period”). Creators may terminate use of the Company’s selling service at any time after the expiration of the Minimum Selling Period. The Company will stop selling the class on the 90th day from the date it received a Creator’s request for termination of the selling service. In the event a separate contract regarding the selling service was executed between a Creator and the Company prior to the date this Policy was implemented, individual sales will continue for the term of such contract while the Minimum Selling Period starting from the date the Creator consented to the Term of the Use of the Creator Center will apply to subscription sales. Provided, however, the Minimum Selling Period will not include the period during which the Company used the class in part or in whole to the extent reasonable or otherwise used the class to the extent necessary to create and use secondary works, for promotional or marketing purposes.
7.5 Regardless of a party’s liability, in the event the selling service is suspended due to the circumstances of the Company or Creator or external circumstances such as compliance with laws and regulations, the Company will, in principle, suspend the selling service after the elapse of a 90-day grace period starting from the date of occurrence of the ground for suspension.
7.6 The sale method and sale price are subject to change at the Company’s discretion and the Payout will be made to the Creator in accordance with the Service Fee and Settlement Policy.
8. Copyright and Publicity Right
8.1 Under the BASIC and PLUS plans, the copyright in the class will not belong to the Company unless agreed otherwise.
8.2 Under the PRO plan, the Company and the Creator will jointly produce the class, and the Company and the Creator will each own 50% of the copyright in the class. The Company will exercise the copyright on behalf of the joint owners during the period which the selling service is provided. When the selling service expires or is terminated, the Creator and the Company may each freely use its copyright in the class and the Company may continue selling the class at its discretion and pay the Creator its Payout in accordance with the Service Fee and Settlement Policy.
8.3 Under the PREMIUM plan, the Company will produce the class and will be the sole owner of the copyright in the class as its author. Furthermore, when the selling service expires or is terminated, the Company may continue to sell the class without making any separate Payouts.
8.4 In the event the Company, pursuant to this Policy, jointly produces a class with a Creator or legitimately uses a class under the consent of the Creator, the Creator’s relevant exercise of its moral rights as author will be limited.
8.5 The Creator agrees with the use of his/her personal identity marks, such as portrait, name, voice, etc., which constitutes the class that the Company has produced independently or jointly or was made available by the consent of the Creator, on websites, applications, other publications or promotional materials, etc. through media such as drawings, photos, and videos without any additional consideration.
8.6 In the event the Company directly or indirectly uses a Creator’s personal identity marks pursuant to 8.5 above, the Creator will not exercise the relevant publicity right with respect to such use and will not exercise the right to request for prohibition of the publicity right infringement.
9. Compliance Obligations
If the schedule agreed in writing (including email, SMS, LMS, SNS, and other electronic documents) with the Company needs to be adjusted or delays in the schedule are expected, the Creator must promptly notify the Company of the reason and initiate discussions on the change in schedule. Such notice must be provided to the Company at least 10 days prior to the initially scheduled date.
- The new date must be decided upon mutual discussions within 30 days from the date of Creator’s notice.
- In the event the Creator gives timely notice (at least 10 days prior to the date initially agreed), any costs incurred due to the change will be borne jointly by both the Company and the Creator. In the event the Creator gives notice less than 10 days prior to the initially scheduled date, any costs incurred due to the change will be borne solely by the Creator.
- In the event of a suspension for reasons attributable to the Creator, the Creator will compensate the Company all of the costs incurred due to the suspension, provided that the suspension is not in any way caused by the Company’s willful misconduct or negligence.
The Creator will be held liable for the compensation of damages incurred by the Company due to the Creator’s breach of these obligations or discontinuance of class production without justifiable cause.
