[Jeon Hwa-sung's Startup Morning Coffee #1205] New Value of Idle Space

'Startup Morning Coffee,' broadcast live daily at 8:40 AM on the YouTube channel 'Jeon Hwa-sung's CNTV,' is a valuable information platform hosted by CEO Jeon Hwa-sung, which in-depth analyzes the core competencies and market potential of various startups and communicates with viewers in real-time. Recently, an innovative company that has garnered particular attention on this program is 'OurSpot.' OurSpot provides O2O (Online to Offline) services for after-school kids' lifestyle care, focusing on resolving the chronic care gaps and high childcare burdens experienced by dual-income parents. In particular, it solves the problem of not being able to cover critical care times, such as children's travel to and from academies, homework guidance, and snack provision, which often lead to parents contemplating leaving their jobs, thereby offering practical help to busy parents. Currently, OurSpot is accelerating its growth through CNTTech's women-specialized accelerator support program. OurSpot's core competitiveness lies in its highly efficient and satisfying care solution, which combines local hub spaces with integrated care services. It provides hub spaces where children can safely stay between academy sessions, and specialized 'Yellow Vest Teachers' are responsible for picking up and dropping off children. Furthermore, it offers one-stop support, including healthy snack provision and homework guidance from teachers with professional teaching backgrounds, thereby alleviating parental anxiety and providing a stable environment for children. Moreover, through a system that maximizes user convenience while reducing costs, it has dramatically lowered average monthly private care costs, which used to be around 1.09 million won, to the 300,000 won range, thus easing the financial burden on parents. CEO Jeon Hwa-sung highly praised OurSpot as "a company that solves the social problem of after-school care gaps through an innovative approach, namely the fusion of an O2O platform and local hub spaces." He emphasized that OurSpot's service, which addresses everything from academy pick-ups to snacks and homework care, while also lowering costs, is poised to become essential infrastructure that dramatically reduces the childcare burden for dual-income households, and has significant potential for nationwide expansion. OurSpot is creating social value with its innovative approach and demonstrating the potential to inject new vitality into the startup ecosystem.
