The disclosed rounds in Seongnam show a clear size outlier: Rebellions’ $250M round on 2025-09-29 dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amount ($234M by SK Eternix on 2026-03-06) and sits far above the rest, with the next-tier dropping to $135M (XCENA, 2026-05-29) and $100M (KoMiCo, 2026-05-18). At the same time, the page is heavily weighted toward undisclosed funding (9 of 19 entries), which makes disclosed-size comparisons concentrate in a smaller subset.
Timing clusters are also visible. While the rounds span 2025-09-27 to 2026-08-03, 2026 accounts for 16 of the 19 entries, and two separate days share the most recent round date (2026-08-03 includes DEEPX’s $3M and MediQStar as undisclosed). Sector and stage labels skew toward AI and “Series Unknown,” with Artificial Intelligence (AI) appearing on 5 entries and Series Unknown showing up on 8 entries (including Huons BioPharma on 2026-06-23 and SSenStone on 2026-06-02).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in Seongnam, and how does it compare to the next-largest?
Rebellions raised $250M on 2025-09-29, followed by SK Eternix with $234M on 2026-03-06. The gap is material: after those two, disclosed amounts step down to $135M (XCENA, 2026-05-29) and $100M (KoMiCo, 2026-05-18).
Are the funded rounds clustered in time near the top of the list?
Yes. Even though the date range runs from 2025-09-27 to 2026-08-03, 16 of 19 entries are in 2026. The most recent date (2026-08-03) includes two companies: DEEPX ($3M) and MediQStar (undisclosed).
How concentrated are disclosed amounts, and what stands out as unusually small?
Disclosed rounds are limited (10 of 19 are disclosed), and the smallest disclosed amount is Kinetic Lab Inc.’s $40K on 2026-04-20.

Series Unknown is the most common label (8 entries), ahead of Seed (5) and Series B (2). The two largest disclosed rounds are both not labeled Series Unknown: Rebellions is Series C at $250M (2025-09-29) and SK Eternix is Series Unknown at $234M (2026-03-06), while XCENA ($135M) is Series B (2026-05-29) and KoMiCo ($100M) is Series Unknown (2026-05-18).
