One Team — The Way Yanolja & NOL UNIVERSE Work

Yanolja is reshaping the global travel industry by providing technical solutions to partners in over 200 countries and operating approximately 60 local offices across 30+ nations. Beyond simply offering platform services, Yanolja's vision is to innovate every moment of travel worldwide through technology and data.

To achieve this grand journey, the Yanolja Group moves as a closely connected 'One Team' based on each member's expertise. We are working as one to provide a smarter, more connected experience for both travel enterprises and travelers.

• Enterprise Solutions Division: Creates innovative solutions that maximize operational efficiency for travel enterprises based on data technology.
• Consumer Platform Division (NOL UNIVERSE): Delivers a 10X easier leisure experience to customers through the 'NOL' platform, which integrates all the joys of daily life—from travel to leisure and culture.

Last November, broadcaster Kim Mina visited Yanolja's Seoul headquarters and the new 10X Tower in Pangyo for the filming of 'JOBPLUSTV', a program produced in collaboration with the Human Resources Development Service of Korea (HRD Korea)! We captured the stories of our colleagues who are innovating travel as One Team, sharing their deep contemplations and dedication.

Yanolja & Yanolja NEXT — Innovating Travel Through Technology

Part 1 features stories from various teams at Yanolja's headquarters, focusing on the innovation and growth of global talent, branding, and technology within a global travel tech enterprise.

Yanolja TA (Talent Acquisition) team goes beyond simple hiring; they focus on discovering talent that matches Yanolja's scale as a global group and connecting them to the right roles. They play a vital role in securing growth engines for the entire company, including Yanolja NEXT, which is currently seeing active recruitment.

Yanolja Marketing team builds the brand identity of the Yanolja Group and spreads our vision and mission to the global market. To achieve this, they communicate in real-time with member companies worldwide, executing strategies to expand Yanolja's consistent branding.

Yanolja NEXT, an independent R&D entity, contemplates travel-specific technology for both travelers and businesses through data, technology, and AI. A prime example is 'Tella by Yanolja NEXT', an AI service capable of real-time response in 24 languages, 24 hours a day. They focus on practical utility to innovate the industry with the most convenient and safe technology. You can learn more about their vision and role through the interview with Jungshik Jang, CEO of Yanolja NEXT.

NOL UNIVERSE — Expanding Horizons from Travel to Leisure and Culture

In Part 2, we sat down with the people of NOL UNIVERSE at the new 10X Tower who are creating everyday happiness and expanding the boundaries of travel and leisure.

NOL UNIVERSE T&A (Tour & Activity) Business department thinks deeply about weaving every piece of travel—beyond just booking flights or hotels—into a single journey on 'NOL'. They focus on implementing various products seamlessly so customers can enjoy uninterrupted joy from start to finish.

NOL UNIVERSE Sports Business department is expanding sports into a massive fandom culture rather than just a match to watch. They are leading the baseball merchandise market and creating new play cultures, such as away game packages, for true fan immersion.

NOL UNIVERSE Global Business department creates an environment where K-culture fans worldwide can travel to Korea more easily through 'NOL World'. They provide optimized infrastructure for foreign tourists and expand the reach of NOL's travel and leisure to a global audience.

The vision of delivering everyday happiness through play is reflected throughout the 10X Tower. The airport-concept lobby, the cafeteria reminiscent of Cappadocia in Turkey, and the Oasis library inspired by the Huacachina village in the Peruvian desert all represent NOL UNIVERSE's way of working—allowing employees to find inspiration and new ideas through travel in their daily lives.

The Future of Travel: Innovating Through Technology and Data

Yanolja is reshaping the global travel industry through two main directions: Enterprise Solutions for businesses and a Consumer Platform for travelers. Based on data, technology, and AI, we enhance industry efficiency behind the scenes while broadly growing everyday happiness—from travel to leisure and culture—where it's most visible.

Beyond simple technological innovation, Yanolja's members are constantly striving to connect every area of travel smoothly and smartly.

Make Travel & Play 10X easier — We look forward to sharing more of Yanolja's journey as we innovate the global travel industry.
