Production Technology: The Pass Train package is made using eco-friendly paper materials, ensuring sustainability and durability. The 'die cut' process precisely shapes the locomotive chimney, reinforcing its identity. Double-layered reinforced paperboard enhances structure while keeping it lightweight. Offset printing with matte and gloss finishes highlights the four color variations, and the Terminal Package features a bold black color to emphasize goal achievement.
Design Challenge: The key challenge was integrating the symbolic meaning of chapssaltteok with the structural characteristics of a train while ensuring functionality and durability. The elevated chimney required multiple prototypes to maintain its form and stability. Additionally, balancing cost-effective production with a premium gifting experience was crucial. The final design successfully blends cultural meaning, storytelling, and structural innovation.
Research: This project explores symbolic packaging that enhances the gifting experience. Research included market analysis of success-wishing gifts, cultural significance of chapssaltteok, and packaging design trends. Surveys with students and gift buyers provided insights into emotional engagement. The result is a package that combines cultural tradition with an interactive storytelling concept, reinforcing goal achievement and encouragement through design.
Inspiration: In Korea, chapssaltteok (glutinous rice cake) is a traditional good-luck gift, symbolizing the hope of “sticking” to one’s desired university or goal. Inspired by this, Pass Train reinterprets the tradition using the structure and symbolism of a train. Just as a train steadily moves forward, students advance toward their dreams. This package transforms a simple good-luck gift into a symbolic journey of encouragement, delivering heartfelt wishes for success.
Project Duration: The project started in Seoul in March 2024 and was completed in Seoul in October 2024.
Operation Flow: The Pass Train package offers an immersive unboxing experience that symbolizes the journey toward success. The Pass Train Ticket marks the departure, leading to the Locomotive Package at the front, setting the stage for progress. The Passenger Car Package extends the journey, while the Cube Package allows for easy single-serving consumption. The Terminal Package represents reaching the final goal, and the Two-Story Signature Package serves as a premium set, enhancing the gifting experience.
