What kind of company is this?
Searching for the OO team in Slack gave me a chance to take a closer look at each member again.
Everyone was wearing masks...
A mysterious photo was posted on our company messenger. Those enthusiastic reactions are the passionate reviews from the Jin-gu members who saw the photo. This isn’t some “World’s Best Costume Contest” or a graduation photo from OO High School. It was taken atWadiz Pangyo office studio Jinguk Photo Studio! The photosare snapshots fromthe event.
Jin-gook's Photo Studio is open for business!
Jinguk Photo Studio is the perfect place to capture a group photo of our team—one that’s truly one-of-a-kind. The Education and Culture Team, which is dedicated to fostering a positive organizational culture, opened this studio on a whim so we could create lasting memories with our cherished team, discover our hidden talents, and see a different side of our colleagues that we hadn’t noticed while working.
All 10 photo studio tickets sold out within four hours of registration opening! We received so many requests for an encore that we released five additional tickets. As a result, 15 groups visited Jin-gook’s Photo Studio.

With the props, makeup, and atmosphere heating up by the minute, the set was even more incredible than we could have imagined. Here are some never-before-seen behind-the-scenes sketches! We’re revealing them right now.

I guess the theme is Christmas! Such a cute little bunny 🐰
Huh... Something seems off. Is this really Jin-gook's Photo Studio?
Huh?
Huh?
From camping gear that suddenly appears in these heartwarming photos to a T. rex and even a pink-haired character—looking at these on-site sketches makes me even more curious about the photos taken at the “Jinguk” photo studio 👀 In particular, out of the 15 teams, just one was selected by their colleagues’ votesasthe most impressive photo,winning the “Jinguk Photogenic” award.
To be honest, I thought we’d come in first… Sigh… There were way more formidable (?) teams than I expected! But it was such a memorable experience—I can’t remember the last time I laughed this much with my teammates.
Mr. J from the Project Management Team
It was truly meaningful to get together as a group for the first time in a long while at the photo studio, catching up with each other and sharing lots of laughter. It was so cute to see the professionals, who usually work so hard, wearing adorable headbands and beaming with joy! Even now, thinking back on that moment brings a smile to my face haha. As the year draws to a close, it was a precious time to remember a fleeting moment of BX, even if just for a brief moment!
Mr. K from the BX Team
Here are the thoughts of the two Jinguks who visited the photo studio. Thanks to them, I’m even more excited to see the photos. Now, let’s reveal the unique photos and the team that won the Jinguk Photogenic Award!

Can you guess which team will win the highly anticipated Photogenic Award?

(Drumroll, please!) We’re revealing the Photogenic Award winners, along with some never-before-seen shots!
The team that won the Photogenic Award was the Recruitment Team, who showed off a variety of colorful hairstyles! We caught up with the Recruitment Team to hear their thoughts.
I think this event was actually meant for the HR team. Our team has a tradition (of sorts) where we pick a theme and dress up according to it about once every six months… It was so much fun to break the routine for a change!! Rock 'n' roll!!!!
We did everything we wanted to do with the recruitment team in 2023. Hahaha 😁 Let’s keep moving forward with this same energy in 2024!!!! Ding~~~🎸🎵
We finally managed to have a little fun for the first time in ages (?)—not a single member of our hiring team was left out!! Just as expected~~🎸
I can’t help but wonder if the rock spirit that radiates from every word of this review wasn’t the secret behind winning the Photogenic Award, which is all about 200% authenticity.
The Jinguk Photo Studio, which has brought so much joy and laughter to many Jinguk fans. I hope it reopens soon. Please ~
🦑 Is there another person who’s been causing a stir at the Pangyo office?! (Click)
