Its core product and service portfolio comprises government-authorized elementary, middle, and high school curriculum textbooks; supplementary study guides and college scholastic ability test preparatory books, including flagship series such as Neungyule VOCA, Reading Tutor, Grammar Inside, Fast Reading Right Reading, Real Original, and Sooneung Manman; early childhood and primary development programs under the NE Kids and Three Rabbits brands; English Language Teaching (ELT) textbooks and international courseware under the NE Build & Grow brand; specialized periodicals including the NE Times English educational newspaper; adult language learning resources such as Tomato TOEIC; and digital education services encompassing the NE Class online learning platform and NELT (Neungyule English Level Test) diagnostic assessment tools. Internationally, the company exports ELT curriculum materials across East Asia and Latin America. Founded in 1980 and headquartered in Seoul, South Korea, NE Neungyule, Inc. operates as an educational affiliate of the hy Group (formerly Korea Yakult) and is publicly listed on the KOSDAQ under ticker 053290. In recent developments, the company has accelerated its digital education transformation through the development and supply of AI-powered digital textbooks aligned with South Korea's 2022 revised national curriculum standards.
