Traditional co-working offices or spaces are primarily physical environments where people work together. The term often refers simply to the 'space' itself, with little emphasis on fostering organic connections between users. In contrast, the concept of a co-working place is redefined as a space designed to build a community, going beyond just providing a physical location.

Co Station

The prefix 'Co,' meaning 'working together,' can be applied to various suffixes. Specifically, the abbreviation 'Co.'—signifying 'together' or 'with'—can be combined with words referring to physical space. The space is located near Hongik University Station (Subway Line 2, Airport Railroad, Gyeongui Line, and route bus), a place that serves as both a starting point and a destination depending on the user. The station, with its various transport lines, also functions as a space for meeting and transferring.

In other words, a co-station is a place where the 'departure' (startup), 'arrival' (graduated company), and 'transfer' (meeting) of entrepreneurship take place.
