Korean online game developer enters PC room business in Japan

Online game developer Nexon.com said Friday that it will become the first Korean company to enter the PC room business in Japan.

The fare of the games provided by Nexon Japan, a locally incorporated firm of Nexon.com in Japan, is 10,000 yen per Internet Protocol (IP) per month and 3 yen per minute.

With the step, Nexon.com expanded its business interests, which were previously confined to providing such game programs as ¡°The Country of Wind¡± and ¡°Quiz, Quiz¡± to private users in Japan.

Noting that the number of Japanese PC room operators who requested the service has already reached around 300, a Nexon official said, ¡°We plan to provide Japanese customers with a total of six online game programs this year, including ¡°The Legend in Darkness.¡±
