K-POP Mood Typography Cohort 3
Experience real-world work at an entertainment company
A typography designer who has collaborated with NCT, ZEROBASEONE, ILLIT, MEOVV, and more
Wonderkey personally teaches you everything about K-POP mood typography
Plan and produce one lettering poster, a virtual artist packshot package, and two finished portfolio pieces
over six weeks following the practical workflow of an entertainment company.
Typography,
why do you need to understand it properly?
Typography is the core language that visually defines an artist’s identity.
From logos and posters to music video captions,
the mood of the lettering is the experience itself, and
simply making the letters “pretty” is not enough.
In the 〈K-POP Mood Typography Workshop〉, you’ll learn everything from the fundamentals of typography theory
to approaches and ways to enhance the quality of your work.
In particular, typography tailored to entertainment companies
requires deep context and approach
Typography in the entertainment industry requires more meticulous planning than ordinary lettering,
and work instructions always come with limited conditions.
The experience of interpreting these constraints creatively and
designing within them is precisely the skill set required in professional work.
＜K-POP Mood Typography
Workshop＞ is based on actual briefs from entertainment companies,
allowing you to experience the industry's language and workflow firsthand.
Enhance your entertainment industry-specific practical skills through a six-week challenge.

Hello, I’m designer Wonderkey.
After completing the K-POP Mood Typography Workshop cohorts 1 and 2, we decided to open cohort 3 to share this experience with more people.
This workshop is designed not merely to listen to theory and be done, but to help you understand the essence of typography and develop practical skills by creating letters by hand yourself.
Over six weeks, you will create your own lettering, complete a poster design, and go on to develop a fictional artist brand and packaging. Since the workshop is conducted like a real industry project, you will gain a genuine sense of accomplishment from seeing one project through to the end.
Letters carry messages in and of themselves and have the power to convey emotions. Through this workshop, we hope you will discover your own Visual Voice and express it through your work.
I look forward to meeting you in the live lecture.
One lettering poster and
a virtual artist packshot package.
Create two high-quality finished works that you can include directly in your portfolio.
