OTTOGI OMU

Sharing Delicious Moments through a New Community

OTTOGI OMU

Introduced 3-minute curry for the first time in Korea, Ottogi is a company with a long experience in the HMR market, which occupies a high share with various items and is consistently loved by consumers. To increase online sales, Ottogi launched a new brand OMU to offer new products that cannot be easily found in other brands, by identifying the needs of millennial consumers and using a diversified portfolio. Ottogi OMU is an online shopping mall with a variety of products to satisfy the lifestyle of the MZ generation. The brand name OMU, referring Ottogi community, means sharing mysterious tasting experience through attractive products with customers in their 10s to 30s who are the main users of online channels.

YNL Design understood the brand environment through Ottogi corporate analysis and market status analysis, and elaborately designed the brand image for Ottogi OMU based on the insights derived from trend research and case studies. The key task was to develop an attractive brand image to satisfy the OMU's target customers in their 10s and 30s while maintaining Ottogi's existing tone and manners. For effective communication with the MZ generation in their 10s and 30s who are familiar with communicating with images, we established more attractive and sensuous brand assets based on the friendly image of the existing Ottogi.

The brand identity of Ottogi OMU was developed to be recognized as an attractive brand through customer's consumption experience. Based on the brand concept of ‘Our Delicious Moments in Ottogi Community,’ we intended to express the identity of the online community that shares mysterious tasting experience. The symbol of OMU was designed to be younger and fresher while keeping Ottogi's tone and manners because it should be used on the package instead of the Ottogi symbol. To maintain the brand image of Ottogi, the existing Ottogi symbol with a symmetrical structure was changed to a free and lively asymmetrical cloud-shape symbol, and mysterious aura-like hologram colors were used to represent the brand value of offering mysterious tasting experiences while arousing curiosity.
