Our Thoughts and History
FOR A MORE FUN LIFE
When GOOGIMS COMPANY started, the local characters
market was really limited at that time and most of
the products were considered exclusively for children.
What is the joy that our design can give? We are
imagining happiness through our character episodes
and messages. We want to give hope and challenge with
our colors, campaigns and graphics.
A company who designs a more fun life?
Our motivation is called "Fun"
Through fashion, we would like to take a role like a
seasoning ingredient. Although we will not be able to
eat it every day, we could not forget its taste.
GOOGIMS only thinks of customers who will be happy
thanks to our products. We imagine our customers’
delight when they meet our happy GOOGIMS’ character.
We always look at the product in a joyful point of
view. We do not want to be a company who just sells
a product but sells the joy and happiness, and let
our customers feel it.
A Sales Concept
GOOGIMS COMPANY does not rush a sale. Designer puts
a story in each product, and thinks, at first, of
creating the values of the materials, production,
and quality management one by one. We do not create
products for a sale, but we design joy around us and
want to convince our customers thanks to our happy
thoughts. Therefore, we are extremely caring about
the joy that our customers meet with our designs.
And, our reward is to make them happy.
We draw ourselves over ten years
All our efforts of creating, planning, designing,
getting the best quality of GOOGIMS started in South
Korea but, are now introduced to the world beyond Asia.
As character designer's brand, we are concerning about
the direction and values of the work we do. GOOGIMS is
challenging itself to make feel joy and happiness to
its customers. We shall become the character’s brand
of the world, thanks to our meticulous step by step
progress planned on 10 years.
THE STORY BEGINS
Beginning of GOOGIMS COMPANY
Persuaded by his parents, Mr Felix did not enter
the Art School but went to an Engineering School.
He started GOOGIMS when he was only a second-year
college student. He always liked drawing and started
posting his scribbles about his life’s vision.
At that time, most of his cartoons series’ content
were dealing with the reason of the life, its sense
or break-up. Those stories were not as happy as they
should be however, 2 years later, many fans
appreciated his drawings and, persuaded by publishers,
his work was published. It is at this moment that he
found out that many people, more than he could have
imagined, felt empathy toward his drawing by living
similar experiences as its characters. Being an
engineering student enable him to understand and
approach the online shopping relatively early, with
the help of his web programming’s friends. He put a
lot of efforts trying to find out the determining
elements of consumers’ purchasing. Nowadays,
over 90% of GOOGIMS COMPANY sales are made online.
And, GOOGIMS has created a stable and quality system
to guarantee the best systemizing and professionalizing
online system that we can provide. Please, expect Mr
Felix and GOOGIMS’s future to be more and more
funny every day.

FLY BADGE: 플라이 배지
구김스 컴퍼니는 2009년부터 한국타이어의
ATLAS BX 레이싱팀 유니폼 및 각종 기어를 후원합니다.
그들은 20명의 팀원들이 하나가되어 0.01초를 줄이기 위해
수백가지의 아주 작은 변수들을 바꿔가며 테스트하고,
경기를 컨트롤하기위해 엄청난 열정과 에너지를 쏟아내는
그런 그들을 존경하게 되었습니다.
그들의 캠프에는 눈에 보이는 수많은 물질적인 것들 외에도
동기부여, 팀빌딩, 리더쉽과 같이 눈에 보이지않는
긍정적인 요소들이 느껴집니다.
이런 수많은 요소를 반복적인 조합을 통해 경기를 만들어가는
그들의 가슴에 구김스 플라이 배지를 달 수 있어서 영광입니다.
