1. Tell us about Su&su design.

Su&su design provides high-quality souvenirs at reasonable prices to tourists, including visitors to Korea.

2. What inspired you to create 3D metal magnets?

Magnets are attractive items that tourists collect while traveling or give as gifts. Magnets are attractively priced, small, and easy to carry. It’s a product that can be decorated anywhere a magnet will stick, whether it’s a porch, refrigerator, or board, allowing tourists to cherish memories of Korean travel destinations.

3. What was the aspect you focused the most on within the product development process?

The stainless steel, gold-plated magnets are designed to capture even the most intricate details with precision.

4. Were there any challenges in the production process?

A significant challenge is the time required in mass production due to a large proportion of manual labor involved in the production process. We are addressing this by increasing staff and improving production stages for better efficiency. In terms of online sales, the challenge of providing only indirect experience to customers is being addressed by including videos and other interactive methods.

5. Tell us about your future plans.

Our plans include packaging two items as a set in a box for sale and developing larger-sized versions of the products to extend their use as decorative frames.

6. What did you learn from the contest, and do you have any stories you’d like to share?
