#7The company has not been acquired, just the Path and Path Talk apps. I actually do not understand that part - what exactly does the company hope to do with Kong? How is the company supporting 40+ headcount now?

I've heard of KakaoTalk before; it's one of the most popular messaging applications in South Korea. According to Wikipedia it's used by 93% of smartphone owners in South Korea [1]. Daum Kakao is the parent company, and looks to have their fingers in a lot of generic web services pies.
