[This Brand Is on the Rise] iLab: The brand that raised 250 million won with a palm-sized hair dryer
Update 2026.11.10
Have you ever seen a dryer covered by a single palm of your hand? It's easy to think that the wind will be weak if it's a small dryer, but a bone dryer from iLab reversed that common sense. It's about the size of an adult, and it contains a BLDC motor used in aircraft.
ILab Corporation is a maker that has consistently introduced small home appliances such as circulators, fans, and air guns in Wadiz. With one hair dryer, I raised more than 250 million won in the two previous funding, and I also raised more than 35 million won in the third funding with new colors. Introducing iLab in [this brand is coming up], which highlights brands that will be loved by more people in the future.
Why this brand is more likely to rise 📈
· Product appeal: It's a 196g size with a 110,000 RPM BLDC motor and a free bolt for safe use around the world.
· Maker's Authenticity: I've been researching motors for a year, starting from the business trip woes of the person in charge of curly hair.
· Verification of Supporters: It's the third round of funding from the same product, and the firepower is still hot.

Why does the dryer always take up one carrier?
Problems iLab found in the travel bag
Dryers are always an ambiguous item when you pack for a trip or business trip. It's heavy and big to bring, and the wind is weak in the dryer of the accommodation. I-Lab didn't let this inconvenience go by, which is mostly 'that's what it is'.
The beginning of the hair dryer started with a person in charge with curly hair.
If you don't wash your hair in the morning due to frequent business trips, you'll become a lion's head,
I had to wash my hair before my morning schedule.
Also, my scalp condition, which was not good due to my oily scalp
It was especially the worst during the business trip.
But to carry a high-performance dryer
The large volume took up too much space in the carrier.
"Is there anything that can complement all of this?"
From this question, the narrative of the one-sided dryer began.

ILab found people with the same inconvenience and found that people who enjoy traveling abroad, people who go to work right after a morning swim, working couples who go to school and get ready for work, and office workers who use a lot of wrists were experiencing similar inconveniences. I caught the daily inconvenience that a dryer can solve.
To make a small but powerful hair dryer
It should be small and have good space utilization,
I needed a strong wind, and I needed to be able to protect my scalp.
Also, it should not be unreasonable to use it overseas.
Of course, the design had to be pretty as well.

The performance of the dryer depends on the motor. So ILab researched for a year to put a powerful BLDC motor for aircraft inside a one-inch dryer. We also have pre-volt and plasma care functions for safe use around the world, and in the third funding, we added the existing cream white, lavender, and butter yellow color. Rather than making it small, the difficult thing is to make it small and not leave any inconvenience. ILab spent a year before putting out a hair dryer to the world.
Will it work in a hair dryer market?
Funding Challenged to Check
The first time iLab came to Wadiz was in 2023. At that time, I wrote the reason why I opened the funding while working on the wireless circulator project as follows.
The main purpose of pre-release on the Wadiz platform is
Before launching, we would like to publicize the product through support signatures from supporters.
Supporters' support and interest are the biggest boost for iLAB makers.
Over the next three years, iLab has conducted 22 rounds of funding at Wadiz and raised nearly 300 million won with 9,000 cumulative supporters. The biggest response among them was the "one-bare dryer" project, which succeeded in funding 250 million won. Satisfaction of supporters was 4.6 out of 5. Most of them were favorable comments.
It's going to solve another daily problem
Brand. Eye Lab
There are three reasons why Wadiz chose iLab as a "more likely brand."
❶ Superior problem solving: Equipped with an aircraft motor in one size. The brand that has solved this difficult problem is likely to solve other problems as well.
❷ Product power that prevents users from giving up: Size, weight, hair care, safety and convenience. The iLab Maker did not give up on any of them and focused on making good products.
❸ Sincere communication skills: The news of the iLab project has a lot of QnA, actual usage reviews, and usage videos. That's how much I tried to quickly solve the part that the supporters were curious about.
iLab has continued to introduce small appliances from circulators, fans, air guns, and lint remover, and has said this since I first found Wadiz.
iLab is working to research and launch products that are chosen by users by a small margin.
Supporters also want another challenge from iRAP. There are requests for wireless fans and air guns with the same performance. If the method of digging into the small difference works in the next product, I think there will be a lot more people who remember the name iLab than now. I hope it will become a more prosperous brand with the skills shown through funding.
