existing games, developing and publishing new titles, and broadening
distribution channels, as well as by improving corporate governance and
internal control standards. Nevertheless, we are listening to our shareholders
and committed to an open and constructive dialogue. We will continue our
efforts toward building a more transparent and accountable governing structure
as we drive the business forward. With the EGM as a turning point, the
management encourages all the shareholders and staff to help the Company make

to conduct its closed beta testing in Korea scheduled to begin on December
27th, 2006, In addition, the management urges the 2 hedge funds, Ramius and

responsible shareholders. We will do our best to fulfill the expectations of
all the shareholders.”
