Enuma is also active in addressing the inequities in education through its apps like Kitkit School, to tackle illiteracy of out-of-school children in developing countries, and Enuma Geulbang, which was developed to teach Korean literacy to children from multi-cultural families. The company also has offices in Seoul and Beijing.18/05/2020
