Weekend Reading: Learn About Korean Game Companies

Just a quickie:

While doing research into the MMOs of Asia over the last week, I came across an interesting report by IT KOREA Journal. This 30 page pdf provides an interesting view of many Korean game developers that those of us here in the West might not otherwise know anything about. They even interview a few industry big-wigs, like Kim Jeong-ryul, chairman of Gravity, makers of Ragnarok Online.

There's info on trends in Asian MMOs, Asian mobile gaming, and profiles of currently successful games. Good stuff all around. Published March 2004.

While the original document seems to have vanished, Google has cached an html version of the pdf which you can read here. All the pictures are missing, but the writing is clear enough that it hardly matters.

Update: Found the original. If you want the bigger download with all the pictures, try this link
