What is ICT AWARD KOREA?

ICT AWARD KOREA is Korea's premier ICT awards ceremony, launched in 2004 and running for over 20 years. It is the nation's leading ICT awards event that discovers and honors achievements in digital innovation services, platforms, content, and technology development utilizing ICT.

This year’s awards spanned six divisions: Apps Websites, Digital Experience Innovation, Digital Solutions, Digital Performance, Digital Branding, and AX Innovation. These divisions are not ranked hierarchically; rather, they are organized to highlight different directions of innovation within the digital industry.

The AX Innovation Division, in which Hancom won, emphasizes achievements that leverage AI to redesign work and service processes or innovate user experience and productivity. Through this award, Hancom not only gained recognition for its ability to translate AI capabilities into tangible workplace innovation, but also broadened public perception of Hancom as an AI brand through the campaign itself.

The Conductor of AI: Hancom AI Orchestrator

The campaign that won this award was designed to communicate Hancom’s transformation from a ‘document company’ into an ‘AI orchestration enterprise’ that encompasses data, security, and everyday safety.

Opening with the tagline “Hancom is not just a document company,” the campaign challenges familiar brand perceptions, then declares Hancom’s new identity with the message “We are the conductor of AI.” It goes on to showcase a range of capabilities—AI-driven data transformation, Q, document automation, autonomous security, and life monitoring—within a single narrative flow, emphasizing the orchestration capability that organically connects diverse AI technologies.

Having led Korea’s document environment for over 30 years, Hancom used this campaign to demonstrate its evolution beyond a simple solution provider into an AI platform company that integrates and orchestrates diverse AI technologies.

As a result, the campaign recorded over 17.02 million views on YouTube, generating significant public interest and engagement, and marking a meaningful turning point in Hancom’s leap toward becoming a future-oriented platform company that connects and orchestrates AI technologies.
