Questions for People

1. Are you aware of LINE/Kakaotalk stickers or Facebook Messenger stickers/emojis? Do you use them? (FOLLOW UP) If yes, which sticker do you often use?

2. Why do you use emojis or LINE/Kakaotalk stickers? (Maybe for fun, giving more ‘emotion’ to texts, etc…) what do you like and don’t like about them

3. What stickers/emojis would you like to see more of?

Anonymous responses:

1. Yes, I use Brown & cony the most.
2. Because I don’t want to text and emoji is the quickest way to reply.
3. Humor.

1. Yes! But I recently deleted the LINE app cos they spam a lot and notify me a lot of stuff.
2. Yes, I use emojis and stickers. I use stickers and gifs (recently) on Facebook. It’s cute and conveys an emotion that would just be like, if you would send words and messages it’s more fun and usually there are stickers that would convey those emotion/feelings that would not be expressed well with words
3. “Terharu” we don’t have that do we? Also the hug one! I’d say, lazy stickers and weird stickers, (for example someone dancing) or a pamper sticker, like a sheet mask or something? Because most stickers are so random that I honestly don’t know when to use them. Even an aesthetic looking emotion, that looks nice. Or the sitting on the toilet emoji?

1. Yes I am aware, I don't use facebook or kakao, but I use line, I use yotsuba! Sticker the most
2. D r a m a, they are very good at conveying feelings that can’t be written
3. Funny stickers, stickers that relate to me

1. I am not aware for LINE/Kakaotalk stickers, and I also don’t use stickers on facebook messenger, I tend to use gifs more often.
2. I use emojis more for instagram posts as captions, when in conversations I use the crying laughing face pretty much all the time because I feel like it makes what I say less awkward and more jokey. I like that they express the way you’re trying to communicate things, however I feel like some people use too many and too often.
3. It think there should be more daily life things, if there’s going to be loads of emojis, there may as well be an emoji for pretty much everything.

1. Yes. I use stickers from movies/genres I like. For example I use Howl’s Moving Castle stickers on Line. I don’t usually use stickers on facebook, but I think that’s because I use facebook messenger the least.
2. To give more emotion, make a stronger point in messenger. I also use emojis as instagram captions when i can’t think of what to write
3. More adult humor emojis and also moving emojis

1. Yes. I’m an avid fan, even have t-shirts with BT21
2. Emotive texting, easier express things.
3. Feelings, “banjeon maeryeok”

1. Yes. I use it often if I don’t want to type long sentences, I just use stickers.
2. It is cute and it express the feeling, because if you type it doesn’t show/express the feeling.
3. Maybe something about feelings? Getting bored or getting excited?

1. Yes, I am aware. Line has too many features that it can be confusing. I don’t often use the stickers.
2. I use it as emojis, because emojis can be rather boring. It’s a part of language now...it’s makes me sound less serious. I would die to use emojis for emails because I am happy and not sarcastic.
3. I use happy things in LINE. Smiling crying, “proud”. There’s no emoji for that. I want to use that a lot, I need it. (You go bae, kind of thing). They need the snarky, shady, slurpy ones (reference to Kermit the frog). That’s totally me. The idea that there are memes/stickers that represent ME. Make a “lalat” one (rubbing hands).

1. Yeah. I don’t use them that often.
2. The only emoji use is the two pink hearts and purely crying or the snarky. Something vulgar and bring back the gun. Free speech! They need the praise one. Takes to many words to express things so it’s more efficient.
3. I would like that vomit emoji, the puking one and not the sick face one. I actually bought that sticker set. I need a sticker that just says "UGH, OH MAH GOD". (Utter frustration). There are just some feelings that can’t be expressed by words or emojis. You gotta need a lot to express most feelings

1. Yes, but I don't use them often. I only use some emojis and stickers whenever I just feel like using it.
2. I use it because it is easy and quick to send short responses. Aside from typing the usual 'ok', I sometimes just send a sticker that says or shows that. It's a lot more fun that way.
3. I think less cute-sy ones and more of the funny types. Maybe even the weird ones like 'Mr. Baldy' from Line.
