The webtoon Kindergarten for Divine Beasts is getting an AI-based animated series that will air on South Korea's Anione channel later this month. Daewon Broadcasting, which operates the channel, handled planning, production, and post-production in collaboration with Glitch Goblin Studio, an AI-focused video studio under Korea Edu Group. Each episode runs 10 minutes and adapts two original webtoon episodes. A Daewon representative said the project treats AI as a practical creative tool rather than just an automation system, and that the team worked to keep the original webtoon's tone and character appeal while meeting broadcast standards.
