South Korean social networking and virtual spaces site Cyworld has announced a partnership with "automatic video editing" software developer muvee Technologies to deliver a new video editing service to Cyworld members.

Based in Singapore, muvee offers software and services allowing users to create and share home movies out of unedited video, digital pictures, and music. With the new agreement, Cyworld's reported 20 million users can add music and editing styles to their videos and photos, creating movies which can be displayed on their profile pages.

Said muvee CEO Terence Swee "Years before the term 'Web 2.0' was coined in the West, Korea had already been at the forefront of what we now call social media and virtual worlds. muvee is proud to be Cyworld's chosen platform provider for a service that can both satisfy the ease of use and interactivity demands of discerning Korean internet consumers, and match the scale of Cyworld's service level requirements. This partnership is a strategic addition to our internet business, which complements global partners we have in the PC and mobile space."
