Wassup!
My name is Sasky and welcome to Mobile Master Race, where I check out the latest kick-ass
mobile games and I SHOVE.
THEM.
IN.
YOUR.
FACE.
Today I'll be reviewing Almost a Hero, a fun incremental game where the main gameplay element
is TAPPING FURIOUSLY ON YOUR SCREEN.
*Tapping intensifies* Fundamentally, Almost a Hero is a pretty standard
incremental game like Tap Titans or Clicker Heroes.
The object of the game is to accumulate gold, recruit allies, and upgrade them until they
become unstoppable killing machines.
You start with a Lightning Ring, which, by tapping on your screen, can unleash powerful
arcane energy on waves and waves of enemies.
You earn gold for killing stuff, which you can then use to recruit powerful allies to
aid you in battle.
These allies will attack by themselves, and they even passively generate gold for you
when you are not playing.
CAPITALISM HO!
Your new-found friends also have access to powerful ultimates that do stuff like attacking
everyone on the screen or casting defensive spells.
And like all such games, you can level-up your allies and improve their skills with,
you guessed it, gold!
The game is free-to-play, but it also has a premium currency in the form of gems, which
you can use to buy treasure chests that contain cool new weapons and accessories for your
allies!
Like most incremental games, Almost a Hero has a prestige system.
What this means is, when you "prestige", the game resets your progress and rewards you
with a certain number of "Mythstones" which you can only acquire through prestiging.
These Mythstones can be used to craft Runes which give you nice bonuses that stay with
you for all your future playthroughs.
A word of warning: The game is super addictive.
*Tapping* The
simple gameplay mechanic of tapping, combined with the fact that the game consistently rewards
you with gold and upgrades makes it so that you'll be playing Almost a Hero for many,
many hours.
The graphics are very polished, and each individual hero is very unique and cute.
The game is a preetttyyy nice game to look at.
However, one thing I didn't like about the game is that at certain points in time, the
enemies get really strong and really hard to kill.
So you either keep prestiging and hope to get good runes so that you can clear these
enemies quickly, or else you just press on and tap until your fingers break.
Overall, I like this game.
I think it's a great F2P game where you don't have to spend a single cent in order to make
progress.
Moreover, the gameplay is very addictive, even though it can get a little bit repetitive
and linear at times.

Chicago PD - Just Talk to Me (Episode Highlight) - Duration: 5:02.
- My client will not answer any questions regarding any
allegations or any appearance of a confession on a video tape.
As a show of faith, however, he is willing to speak
on his relationship with Bobby Trent, but, be aware,
I will shut you down the moment you make any attempts--
- Yeah, are we about done here?
- Yeah, go ahead.
- So we're operating on faith here, Cal?
Go ahead.
Tell me what you want me to know.
- Bobby sent me the tape two months ago with a note
saying the audio would be released if I didn't pay.
I paid. He wanted more.
I paid again.
- See, I know where you grew up.
I came out of Cicero.
Know what we used to call you guys?
Junkyard dogs.
Yeah, we'd ask "How are you?"
You'd say, "Why the hell you wanna know?"
See, I'm guessing for a guy like you,
even after all these years being under someone's thumb,
it just felt wrong.
- I would've kept paying.
- Yeah, if the footage was released...
- Mm-mm.
- Now your family business earns, what, 600 mil a year?
And its CEO is being accused of raping
his nine-year-old daughter. - All right, that's it.
My client is not gonna sit here and listen to any more of this.
That's enough. Do you hear me?
Enough. - No.
I never heard from Bobby after the second payment.
I'm happy to share all our correspondence with you.
Thursday night, I was with my wife,
and my friend Miles, a junkyard dog,
will confirm that.
- All right.
You keep smiling, Cal.
You know, the nice thing about my job,
no matter how much money you have,
I land every killer in the exact same place.
- You say so.
- His lawyer's playing it right.
Even if Sarah gave you a statement for the rape,
which would've been necessary for a charge,
the abuse occurred 22 years ago in a state
with a statute of limitations that's 20.
You have to get him on the murder.
- Oh, Calvin's financials show that his assistant withdrew
the 60 grand from Calvin's son's college fund
and FedExed it to Bobby.
- Burgess. - The alibi's airtight.
Both Jessica and his friend Miles confirmed
that Calvin was home all night.
- Could the killer have been hired?
- No, it was too sloppy.
The killer was in the car, gave Bobby time to struggle.
- Sergeant, Calvin's lawyer Williams is downstairs
insisting Sarah see a lawyer.
- Well, he can insist all he want.
He can't be her lawyer.
- It's a conflict of interest.
- Yeah, he's got another attorney with him.
Insists Sarah's her client.
- You have to let her lawyer upstairs then.
- We need to talk to her first.
Stall them.
- You can't do that, Hank.
- Stall them.
- Your lawyer's downstairs.
Or your dad's lawyer, I should say.
Your dad is in the next room.
By law, I have to let your lawyer up here
unless you tell me not to, or you can sign this waiver
and just talk to me.
- I don't understand.
- Sarah, you could've asked me for a lawyer at any time,
but you didn't.
- I told you all I know.
- It's family.
My mom never even told me who my dad is.
It was always just me and her,
and she was a terrible parent.
She failed me every time, and I took it
because I didn't have a choice.
She was all I knew, all I had.
So I stand there in front of her,
and I take it on the chin.
And every single hit has hurt.
So I look at you, and I look at what you're going through,
and I think to myself, "There's gotta be a time
where we stop standing up for more."
- He's gonna let me come home
to my brother...and my mom.
It's my family.
I'll lose all of them.
- Did you ever really have them?
Sarah...
Did your dad kill Bobby?

Trump Makes Ivanka Official - Duration: 5:08.
IVANKA TRUMP WILL BE TAKING A POSITION AS AN UNPAID FEDERAL
EMPLOYEE IN THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION.
NOW, OF COURSE THIS HAS LED TO A LOT OF DRAMA, ESPECIALLY
CONSIDERING HER HUSBAND JARED GERSTNER IS A SENIOR ADVISER IN
THE WHITE HOUSE; HOWEVER, HER ROLE WILL BE SENIOR ADVISOR TO
THE PRESIDENT.
SHE SAYS BECAUSE OF ETHICAL CONCERNS SHE WILL NOT TAKE
A PAYCHECK, SHE WILL JUST BE THERE ASSISTING HER FATHER.
SO AGAIN, IT IS AN UNPAID ADVISOR TO HER FATHER IN
THE WHITE HOUSE.
SHE SAYS, "I HAVE HEARD THE CONCERN SOME HAVE WITH MY
ADVISING THE PRESIDENT IN MY PERSONAL CAPACITY WHILE
VOLUNTARILY COMPLYING WITH ALL ETHICS RULES, AND I WILL INSTEAD
SERVE AS AN UNPAID EMPLOYEE IN THE WHITE HOUSE OFFICE, SUBJECT
TO ALL OF THE SAME RULES AS OTHER FEDERAL EMPLOYEES.
THROUGHOUT THIS PROCESS I HAVE BEEN WORKING CLOSELY AND IN GOOD
FAITH WITH THE WHITE HOUSE COUNSEL, AND MY PERSONAL
COUNSEL, TO ADDRESS THE UNPRECEDENTED NATURE OF MY
ROLE."
SO, ONE OF HER CRITICS WAS ME, NOT THAT SHE IS RESPONDING TO
ME, BUT PROBABLY.
I EXPLAINED IN AN EARLIER STORY HOW SHE WAS GOING TO VOLUNTARILY
FOLLOW THE ETHICS RULE, EVEN THOUGH SHE DID NOT NEED TO.
WELL, IF IT'S VOLUNTARY, YOU CAN JUST CHOOSE NOT TO FOLLOW ANY OF
THE ETHICS RULES ANYTIME YOU DON'T WANT TO, SO THAT
REALLY MEANS NOTHING.
NOW, SHE'S NOT TAKING A SALARY, OF COURSE!
OF COURSE YOU CAN TAKE A SALARY, THAT WOULD BE INSANE, ESPECIALLY
WHEN YOU ARE CLAIMING YOUR DAD IS WORTH $10 BILLION, ETC.
BY THE WAY, THAT HAS NOT CHANGED, SHE NEVER SAID SHE
WAS GOING TO TAKE A SALARY, TO BE FAIR TO HER.
NOW, IN THIS CASE SHE HAS A SPECIAL ROVING ASSIGNMENT OF,
I'M GOING TO TRY TO GET MY DAD TO NOT DO STUPID STUFF, AND
THAT'S WHY WE ARE GOING TO CALL IT ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
WHAT ARE YOU IN CHARGE OF?
HEALTHCARE, SHOES?
WHAT ARE YOU IN CHARGE OF?
NO I DON'T KNOW, I'M IN CHARGE OF TACKLING HIM WHEN HE'S ABOUT
TO DO A STUPID TWEET.
THE INTERESTING THING IS, I DON'T ACTUALLY MIND HER BEING
THERE, I THINK SHE IS ONE OF THE MORE MODERATE, BUT SHE IS STILL
RIGHT-WING, BUT IN THAT INSANE WHITE HOUSE SHE IS ONE OF THE
MORE MODERATE.
WHY DO WE THINK SHE'S MODERATE?
BECAUSE AUNT ñ BECAUSE ONCE IN A WHILE SHE WILL GIVE A SPEECH AND
SAY FEMALES ARE ALSO HUMAN.
LOOK AT THAT, THAT'S A MODERATE IN THAT WHITE HOUSE.
WHEN WE HAVE KIDS, WE SHOULD MAKE THEM GO RIGHT BACK TO WORK
BUT AFTER DELIVERY, MAYBE WE SHOULD HAVE PAID MATERNITY
LEAVE.
SHE DOES ENFORCE THAT.
RIGHT, BECAUSE TALK IS CHEAP, AS CHEAP AS HER STILETTOS.
DAMN, SHOTS FIRED.
I WILL SAY THAT I LIKE HER STYLE.
PLEASE BELIEVE ME!
OH YOU SAID YOU LIKE HER STYLE.
I THINK SHE HAS GREAT STYLE.
ARE WE NOT MERCIFUL!
YOU CAN COME ñ
YOU CAN COMPARTMENTALIZE PARTS OF PEOPLE.
IS SHE BEAUTIFUL?
YES.
DOES SHE HAVE GOOD STYLE?
THAT'S ABOUT IT.
BUT WE KEEP TALKING ABOUT HER AS IF SHE IS A MODERATE BECAUSE
SOMETIMES SHE SAYS NIGHT ñ SOMETIMES SHE SAYS NICE THINGS,
BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING.
IF YOU LOOK AT THE WAY SHE TREATS HER EMPLOYEES, OR THE
FACT THAT HER APPAREL IS MADE IN CHINA, AGAIN, TALK IS CHEAP.
WE DON'T REALLY KNOW THAT MUCH ABOUT HER, IF YOU REALLY
THINK ABOUT IT.
WHICH IS WHAT THE PROBLEM IS THAT SHE HAS A ROLE THAT IS
TOTALLY UNDEFINED, AND SHE HAS BUSINESS INTERESTS, AND SHE
ATTENDS MEETINGS WHERE SHE IS SITTING THERE WITH THE LEADERS
OF COUNTRIES WHERE SHE DOES BUSINESS, INCLUDING DURING THE
TRANSITION WITH THE TRANSIT ñ
WITH THE JAPANESE LEADERS, LATER WITH THE GERMAN LEADERS.
HER HUSBAND JUST GOT THE BIGGEST SWEETHEART DEAL WE'VE EVER SEEN
IN NEW YORK, WHERE A CHINESE COMPANY DIRECTLY TO ñ
DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT SEEMS TO HAVE
OVERPAID HIM BY ABOUT $400 MILLION.
THAT IS SUPER ROUGH, AND PEOPLE WILL ARGUE OVER THE PRICE OF
THAT BUILDING, BUT IT WAS THE BIGGEST SALE IN NEW YORK FOR A
BUILDING, AND ALMOST EVERY EXPERT IN REAL ESTATE AND
MARKET SAYS IT WAS A WAY OVER INFLATED PRICE.
THAT IS A WAY ñ THAT IS THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT GIVING
HUNDREDS OF MILLION DOLLARS INTO IVANKA'S POCKET.
THEY ARE MARRIED, IT IS INTO IVANKA'S POCKET, AND NOW
SHE IS THE ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
IS SHE GOING TO WHISPER SECRET TOPPINGS INTO THE EAR OF CHINA
AFTER THEY JUST PAID HER HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
THAT BY ALL REAL ESTATE EXPERT ACCOUNT IN NEW YORK THEY
SHOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN.

Papá pro-gay | Caso Cerrado | Telemundo - Duration: 19:30.
French author Andre Gide once said,
"It's better to be hated for what you are
than to be loved for what you aren't."
Hello and welcome to<i> Case Closed.</i>
That's an interesting quote.
It brings up a concept...
We all want to be loved... but for what you aren't?
Let's see what our first case is about.
Bring out the litigants.
What do they insinuate I am?
This has to stop immediately.
All we want is for him to be who he wants.
And for the mockery and harassment to stop.
Good afternoon and welcome.
Good afternoon.
Geovani, you're the plaintiff.
You're suing Karla and Jesus, who I understand
are your father and sister.
That's right.
Why are you suing them and what do you demand
to resolve this case?
Ma'am, I'm suing my father and sister
because they're employing a social media campaign
to create a totally false image of who I am.
It's affecting my personal and social lives.
They need to stop using me for their anti-homophobia campaign.
By using my image, I'm coming across
as a poster child for homosexuality,
but it's not true.
I am not gay.
Wow!
What you're saying is totally absurd.
These are your father and sister.
Why are they labeling you as something you're not?
How old are you?
19.
How did this situation come about?
I've been a calm kid my whole life.
I don't like sports.
I prefer the arts and reading and going to the movies.
You have other tastes. Fantastic.
Totally different tastes, and in Puerto Rico...
They're not typical macho tastes.
Exactly.
In Puerto Rico, if you're not a big, strong guy with a beard
in baggy clothes, then you must be homosexual.
To be clear, not just in Puerto Rico.
We can apply that concept all over the world.
For a long time I've heard the insults
and dealt with stuff,
but I learned to ignore it and deal with it in my own way.
But two months ago, I experienced something
that affected my father,
and that's when they started this campaign
to combat homophobia.
What happened two months ago?
I was going out with my best friend as we often did.
Just to chill at a bar.
But two guys started harassing us and making comments,
asking if we're dating and who the girl is,
if we're a lesbian couple, etc.
It's happened to me plenty, so I ignored it.
But it reaches a point...
Ma'am...
Let him finish explaining.
Please, Dad.
Fine. Continue.
They were physically attacking my friend,
and I had to do something.
So I started fighting, but look at me, ma'am.
I can't really...
You're not a big guy.
It didn't go great for me, my best friend tried to help,
but he ended up in worse shape than me.
When we got home and my dad saw me, it affected him,
which I understood.
I told him not to call the cops because in Puerto Rico,
nothing is done in cases like these.
You file a report and give a description
of the people who supposedly roughed you up,
but they don't investigate.
Even though it's a hate crime, which is what it is.
Just because you're not gay, they're behaving
under the assumption that you are!
So it's still considered a hate crime.
And the police don't follow up on these cases?
No, but my father took justice into his own hands.
He took pictures of me,
and my sister helped him create a page
on Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat,
basically all over social media.
They're constantly posting pictures
of me after I was beaten.
So they've got a huge network of followers
who know me and think I'm gay.
They've got a false concept of who I am.
Because of this, I can't even go to the corner store
to buy bread because my lifelong neighbors
congratulate me and support me for coming out of the closet.
"How's your boyfriend?" they ask.
These comments make me uncomfortable.
-Because they're not true. -They're not.
You're 19.
Have you been with a woman?
Yes.
-You have. -Yes.
So in your mind, there's no doubt at all
as to your sexual orientation.
Exactly.
You know what you like.
But I don't post it on social media.
No, I get you.
So you want them to stop this campaign,
or rather, continue it, but not use your image.
Yes.
Like I mentioned, there've been experiences.
I'm not one to talk to strangers,
but at school, these people I don't know
come up to me, congratulating me and supporting me.
"What your dad is doing is awesome."
So I don't know how to react when a homosexual
tells me he came out of the closet because of me
and thanks me.
I don't know how to tell him I'm not gay.
That I'm not the superhero he thinks I am.
It's gotten to the point
that men are constantly messaging me.
So you're attracting attention you don't want.
Vulgar things I don't want to see.
Do you have a girlfriend? Have you ever had one?
I'll explain.
I was in a relationship with a girl.
We were talking and it was getting serious,
but because of this, she begins to doubt me.
She says my dad's saying I'm gay.
And if it's my family, well...
So I told her it wasn't true.
She even asked me if she was my beard, which offended me.
It's really annoying.
I really cared about her, but because of this,
she dumped me,
so I lost this person that I was really into.
That's what led me to say enough is enough.
My life can't continue to change
because of what my father and sister are posting
all over social media when I myself
never even posted that much!
I'm very private, and I value my privacy.
Okay. I got it.
Do you have evidence? Oh, we have some here.
"I'll wear what I want on my head.
Just try and call me gay or hit me."
I'm just supporting my son, ma'am.
"I'm proud of my son, even if he's different."
That's you after the beating, right?
Yes.
Two months ago.
And that's your friend.
Yes.
Great.
I understand.
Good afternoon.
I'm Jesus, Geovani's father.
He's told you how he feels,
but this has been going on
since he was in elementary school.
Geovani's always been a calm kid.
He likes the arts and music.
He likes to look good. He's a metrosexual.
Great.
He doesn't like going to the gym.
He's effeminate, like many other men who aren't gay.
They're just effeminate.
He's metrosexual.
After that beating he received two months ago,
I couldn't take it anymore.
Somebody had to hear me out.
As he mentioned, the police take a statement,
take pictures, do nothing,
and file away the case.
So somebody has to hear me out.
I'm listening to you.
I get what you're doing, but I don't understand why.
Because it's affecting me. I even had a stroke!
I'll be direct so as not to waste time.
You're insinuating that your son is gay.
No, ma'am.
Listen to me for a moment.
You're not insinuating that he's metrosexual.
Nowhere does it say there "my son isn't gay
even though he looks it.
That's why idiots are being prejudiced.
So I'm defending him."
It's one thing to defend him with what you're implying.
It's another to defend him with the truth.
You're not doing that.
Or do you question your son's sexual orientation?
He looks at his daughter.
It's like me asking Ignacio for the ruling on a case.
Let her explain.
Our mother died when he was five and I was ten,
so I've always looked after him.
In school, he's always been like what you see.
A good-looking, studious kid.
He's artistic and likes performing.
Totally unlike other kids who prefer sports and so on.
His nose was always in a book.
That made him a little more sensitive
and he felt himself marginalized.
They called him sissy and f-- at school,
and I'm the one who defended him.
I didn't ask her to defend me.
So I've got the pain of a big sister, of a mother.
He didn't ask you to defend him.
I know he didn't, and I understand.
But then who would?
He can't defend himself.
Listen up.
He's got someone to defend him.
Karla, it's great that he's got someone to defend him,
if that's what he wanted.
But he's up for the challenge of dealing with who he is,
which I think is wonderful in a person.
No matter who one is, one must deal with the consequences
of what others think, as people often do.
Instead of coming up with new ideas,
people are obsessed with others' identities,
and I don't know why.
Let's take a short break, but first listen t
Yes or no?
Of course they do.
You don't?
I don't.
To me, if he is or isn't doesn't matter,
so I won't answer with a yes or no.
He has the right to be whatever he wants.
See, ma'am?
Even my own family questions me.
That's why they're misleading about my image.
You're losing focus.
You're causing more trouble for him.
People are misinterpreting who he is
and what his identity is.
He was dumped by his girlfriend because of all this.
As a responsible father, it's my duty to protect my son.
Any witnesses?
I have one.
Bring out the plaintiff's witness.
Look, this is all well and good,
but we can't stray far from reality.
The truth must always come first in life.
And he's needlessly suffering.
As am I as a father.
Good afternoon, sir. Your name?
I'm Tony.
-You're Geovani's friend. -His best friend.
We're childhood friends, so we know each other well.
I have something to say.
I believe that both his father and sister think he's gay.
Their attitude proves it.
I agree.
I think they question Geovani's sexual orientation.
They're proving it.
And just like it affects them, it affects me.
What's happening to him is happening to me.
Everything happening on the street to him
happens to me.
I'm questioned every day.
People think we're a couple.
My parents question me.
So I'll ask you. Are you gay?
No. I love women.
You love women.
We've dated women, but this is affecting us.
Please bring out Dr. Madeline Hernandez
and attorney Lizette Sierra
so we can discuss two issues relevant
to what I consider an absurd situation.
This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.
Good afternoon.
Good afternoon, ma'am.
Let's talk about this.
I'm focusing on what's most obvious to me.
I believe that they aren't clear
about his sexual orientation.
I agree.
-You do? -Yes.
And that campaign is just more discrimination against him.
It's slandering him.
They're suggesting something about him...
That isn't true.
Why do they question Geovani's sexual orientation?
I think because of the traits previously mentioned.
Geovani exhibits feminine traits.
Yes.
And we succumb to the stereotype
that men with feminine qualities are probably gay.
And that's not right.
So you're saying a good percentage of the world
has to be taught that a man doesn't have to be
a big oaf to be heterosexual.
Of course not.
He doesn't have to be crude or talk like this.
He doesn't have to like sports.
He can be as feminine as a woman and be
completely heterosexual.
That's right.
So we're the ones who're wrong.
I believe so.
We're ignorant.
Many men are into the creative arts.
That has nothing to do with socialization.
It's biological too, a process in the brain.
Being interested in those things
doesn't make them feminine.
They can be both.
Of course.
Let's talk about this campaign.
They're using his image
to propagate something about him that isn't true.
This is defamation.
I'd argue that this is a gray area
with merit on both sides.
Consider a memoir, a book of one's life story.
They're talking about an event that affected them
and informing the community...
But they're distorting it.
They're saying he's gay when he isn't.
They don't say it directly.
They imply it.
Yes, but for it to be defamation,
it'd have to be proven untrue.
We know he's not gay, but they're not saying it directly.
They're talking about something else.
So it's arguably not defamation.
Or invasion of privacy either
because the event happened publicly.
And they're not divulging private information about him
because they're not calling him gay.
I understand that part.
But I still think this is a private matter,
and above all, you are a loving family.
You love one another...
I love and support my son.
Shh.
Since you love and support each other,
this should've never even made it to here.
I'm glad it did because it's an interesting topic
we've dealt with, but listen up.
As a loving family, you resolve this one of two ways.
Either stop using any images of him for your campaign
or clarify the matter.
Be as clear as can be.
"My son isn't gay, yet because of his appearance,
people label him a certain way,
and just look at the consequences
of the hate in this world."
Use the truth, not insinuations
because they're hurting him.
That's what I'd do.
Secondly, I'd end the whole campaign.
He's a private kid, and I get the impression
he can deal with the consequences of who he is.
And he does it like a man.
Like a courageous human being.
So respect that.
Respect him
and respect his wish for you to stop insinuating
he's something that he isn't.
And do it with love and respect.
That's what a close family does.
What I did was out of love and respect.
But now you'll end the campaign for the same reasons.
Because I rule in your favor.
They are to stop using your image
because you aren't that,
and you don't like them saying you are.
It's final. Case closed!

Korean cosmetics companies branch out beyond China - Duration: 4:30.
Korea's cosmetics companies know they are in for a dry spell as Beijing continues its
economic retaliation against Seoul.
Some in the industry are already adapting... by finding ways to diversify their product
lines and moving further into the global market.
Lee Unshin has more on how some are creating opportunities out of the odds.
The shopping district of Myeong-dong is one of the most famous tourist spots in Seoul
and not so long ago... it was almost always packed.
These days, though, the streets aren't as crowded.
"With all these cosmetic shops here, the area was especially popular with Chinese tourists...
and store clerks standing outside would say hi or introduce their products in Chinese,
no matter who was passing by.
But that's no longer the case either."
The number of Chinese visitors in the nation has dropped sharply over the past few months,
following Beijing's unofficial economic retaliatory measures against Seoul for its deployment

And because China is the primary importer of Korean beauty items...the industry is concerned,
that other potential retaliatory measures from Beijing could have a serious impact on
cosmetic exports in the long run.
"Korea has long been dependent on China for exports.
But with the recent events, we don't know how long we can maintain the China sales figures.
That's why instead of depending solely on just one market, it's important for Korea
to broaden and explore its overseas market potential."
One Korean cosmetics company has already made inroads into markets overseas.
Meet the early bird -a cosmetics firm that makes beauty products specifically targeting
clients in the Middle East.
Their makeup line was given halal certification, meaning it only uses ingredients that are
permissible under Islamic law.
"I built this line after realizing there was a lack of makeup products that meet the high
standards according to Islamic law.
It requires that goods be free of animal products, certain chemicals or dyes.
But when we developed the products, the result was cosmetics with no unwholesome ingredients
or chemicals, so now, our products are in demand globally."
But he isn't the only pioneer.
This cosmetics distributor also saw market potential outside China... ahead of its competitors.
The company has over 130 Korean cosmetic brands going out to more than 40 countries in regions
like Southeast Asia, Europe and the U.S.
And because different products are popular in different regions, the distributor says
that with the right marketing strategies... there's practically no limit to the Korean
cosmetics industry's growth.
"Skincare products are in high demand in Southeast Asia.
Makeup in vibrant colors is popular in Japan."
It was the company's keen eye for market trends that led it to broaden its horizons beyond
China.
They recognized Korean cosmetics hadn't yet peaked in China... and decided to start marketing
their products around the world before it happened.
"We have a branch in the U.S. and we have individual partnerships with each country
in the Southeast Asian region to localize our marketing strategy.
For global marketing, our main focus lies in utilizing mobile advertising, social media
and Google's search platform."
Industry experts agree the Chinese market is still valuable, but with the potential
for robust sales all over the world, they ask: 'why not explore all markets?'
"Korean cosmetics makers used to import their base ingredients, but now they're producing
makeup with homegrown ingredients and unique designs.
Demand for these original Korean cosmetics is now very high, especially in populous countries
like Japan, the U.S. and India."
To meet the soaring demand, the experts suggest that quality improvements and exceptional
marketing tactics are crucial ingredients for global success.
As some of the first comers in the field have proven, diversifying your market options is
the only way to be successful in the global business arena.
Companies seeking to follow with made-in-Korea products that go beyond beauty... may just
want to take note.
