South Korea Mindfulness Meditation Apps Market to Reach Around USD 438.68 Million by 2035, Aided by the Growing Penetration of Smartphones

South Koreans report stress at a rate of 95%, while the elderly have startlingly high rates of depression. The adoption of mindfulness meditation applications is anticipated to surge in the forecast period as meditation gradually becomes a part of daily life.

The South Korea mindfulness meditation apps market expansion is being driven by the growing awareness regarding the importance of mindfulness and the use of mobile apps by customers to assess their anxiety levels and alleviate stress through guided meditations.

The market for mindfulness meditation apps is expected to expand as a result of the rising prevalence of mental illnesses and the growing demand for meditation to reduce stress and mental illness in South Korea. Koreans also spend a significant amount on health and wellness. As regular mindfulness meditation benefits mental and physical health, their adoption in wellness practices is increasing.

In January 2024, a mindfulness meditation app, Mabo, announced that its meditation app now offers a "Mabo Class" page, where users can immediately apply for and sign up for offline lessons taught by Mabo meditation teachers. This initiative makes it possible for Mabo to develop into an online-to-offline (O2O) platform. Users can see offline meditation classes on a variety of themes by selecting the “Mabo Class” tab.

Beginning with the introductory one-day session for mindfulness meditation, each month additional lectures by specialists in the field will be presented to each student, covering topics such as body care and regular advanced classes. These apps can be easily accessed on smartphones such as Samsung (KRX: 005930), iPhone (NASDAQ: AAPL), and others.
