Founding
Creatrip was founded by Yim Hae-min. Before founding the company, Yim worked part-time as a ginseng salesperson. Touting the products to travelers who'd come to experience Korea left a guilty conscience and Yim founded Creatrip to offer more authentic experiences of the country.

Funding
Creatrip received its initial funding of seed round amounting 200 million won from KAIST Ventures on February 25, 2016. A 2018 news article indicated that Creatrip had raised a 1 billion won Series A round by CKD Venture Capital. In December 2019, Creatrip raised 3 billion won from lead investor Altos Ventures and 400 million won from supporting investor Bass Investment.
