WEBTOON Collaborates with Duolingo to Launch New Duo Unleashed Series

By Josh PiedraOctober 16, 2024

WEBTOON Entertainment and Duolingo announced a brand and content partnership for a new original webcomic miniseries, “Duo Unleashed!” Produced by Duolingo, all five episodes of “Duo Unleashed!” are available to read now exclusively on WEBTOON.

“Duo Unleashed!” follows Duo, Duolingo’s charming and occasionally chaotic owl mascot, in his latest adventure. When Duo tries to lighten his workload by hiring an assistant, he is surprised with a clone machine that delivers more than he bargained for—an entire squad of unruly clones! What starts as a quick fix for his mounting tasks soon spirals out of control as each clone gets wilder than the last. Now, it’s up to the original Duo, Lily, and more Duolingo characters to save the day from total clone chaos. In this hilarious journey, Duo learns what it truly means to be oneself!

To promote “Duo Unleashed!,” WEBTOON and Duolingo are bringing the story to life at New York Comic Con (Oct. 17 – Oct. 20)  with an immersive fan experience including daily meet & greets with Duo and Lily. Fans can watch WEBTOON and Duolingo on social media for more details about the event and giveaways at the NYCC booth (Booth #2835).

Created in collaboration with WEBTOON and Duolingo, the series is written by Duolingo creative content coordinator Karen Buchanan with art by Kylie Hunsinger, whose previous work includes the WEBTOON Originals series “Madame Outlaw.”

From October 15 to November 12, WEBTOON users who read all five episodes of “Duo Unleashed!” will unlock a code for a one-month free trial of Super Duolingo, the brand’s ad-free subscription. Readers with a WEBTOON Monthly Coin Premium package will get a two-month free trial of Super Duolingo. The offer is available for readers who are new to Duolingo or already an active free user.

“This collaboration has provided us an exciting opportunity to introduce Duolingo and its dynamic cast of characters to WEBTOON’s audience of passionate global readers,” said Linda Simensky, Head of Animation and Scripted Content at Duolingo. “We loved getting to expand Duo’s story in this new space, and look forward to even more fans meeting him on WEBTOON.”

“WEBTOON fans love storytelling that is creative, curious, and fun. As a company that connects and enriches the world by helping people learn new languages and understand each other, Duolingo’s brand and product are a perfect fit to join the global community on WEBTOON,” said David S. Lee, Head of US  WEBTOON. “We are such fans of the app and, of course, Duo himself, and can’t wait for WEBTOON readers to follow him on this hilarious new adventure.”

“At Duolingo, we love teaming up with partners who bring something fresh to the table and help us tap into new fandoms. WEBTOON is the perfect match,” said George Audi, VP of Business Development & Partnerships at Duolingo. “Together, we’re unlocking new ways for fans to dive deeper into Duo’s world—this time with an epic twist. We can’t wait to see WEBTOON’s global audience fall in love with Duo just like our learners have!”

Some of the most exciting names in pop culture have worked with WEBTOON to bring their stories to webcomics. Recent collaborations include series and projects with names like Overtime; The Try Guys; HYBE artists BTS, TXT, and ENHYPEN; Lil Uzi Vert; Hayley Kiyoko; Kevin Kreider; Ava Max; GAYLE; MAY-A, and others. WEBTOON has also worked with marquee comic publishers like DC, Archie Comics, Marvel, and more.
