problem statement

How might we make life more convenient for vegetarians living in Korea where lacks information for vegetarianism?

SOLUTION
OVERVIEW

A Mobile Application for the Fast-Growing Number of Vegetarians in Korea

Vemeal was designed for Koreans who have difficulty obtaining information about vegetarianism. It provides recipes according to six types of diet: vegan, lacto vegetarian, ovo vegetarian, lacto-ovo vegetarian, pescatarian, and pollotarian. Users can also communicate with each other and share their own recipes.

CONTEXT

The number of Vegetarians in Korea has been increasing

In recent years, the number of vegetarians in Korea has been increasing rapidly—surpassing one million—with the vegan population now estimated to be around half a million. Including flexitarian, a type of vegetarian who occasionally enjoys meat, the number of people who prefer vegetarian foods in Korea is nearly ten million.

➔ However,
since vegetarian culture has not been in Korea for very long, there are few services or platforms for Korean vegetarians.
