The platform offers aspiring artists a chance to share their stories with a global audience, with opportunities to monetize their work as they grow.

Parental Guidance
Parental Guidance
Webtoon is a popular digital platform that features a wide variety of comics across different genres, including fantasy, romance, action, sci-fi, slice of life, and more. While many webtoons are suitable for teens, some may contain mature themes, language, or content that may not align with every family’s preferences.
As a creator-focused class, students will be learning how to publish their own webtoon and will be required to have a Webtoon Canvas account (which requires users to be at least 13 years old). However, Webtoon is a public platform, and parental guidance is encouraged to monitor the content their teen is engaging with.
I strongly recommend that parents review Webtoon’s content policies and community guidelines and discuss appropriate content choices with their teen. If preferred, parents can explore Webtoon’s “WEBTOON Originals” and “Canvas” sections together to find content that aligns with their family’s values.
