TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NEXON Co., Ltd., (3659.TO) (“Nexon”), a worldwide leader in free-to-play online games, today announced the appointment of Min Kim to the position of Chief Executive Officer of its North American business unit, Nexon America, effective September 1, 2012. Min Kim will replace Daniel Kim, who is relocating back to Seoul to take on new duties at Nexon. “We thank Daniel for his many contributions and leadership in North America, and look forward to leveraging his talents in Ko

Is this a good a bad thing?

This may seem promising

I wonder if this has anything to do with the remark Daniel Kim made about consoles needing to be F2P or die out.

Thinking the same thing.

He's becoming Nexon's golden toilet cleaner. That's his 'new duties' and they look forward to leveraging his 'talents'

I wouldn't have kept him on staff after that recent remark. Nexon has enough trouble with their forum managers making embarrassing public misstatements.

What he said wasn't THAT bad. It was ignorant as pomegranate but it wasn't offensive or grounds for removal. Something else must be going on.

He's already been at the head of everything as it is, so this really shouldn't make any lasting impact imo.

I agree with this. Nothing he said was that out-of-bounds, maybe a touch radical, yes, but not out-of-bounds. Clearly something else is going on.

Maybe my emails are being read by someone.

Not sure if this is good...

.....

Or bad.

It had to be done. Let's see where Nexon is gonna go, is it gonna become better? Worse? Worse-r? Back to Square 1? All these questions are gonna hurt me.

Maybe my emails are being read by someone.

Hardly, your physical mail will end up in someones rear end, and you know it. Either that or through the shredder, unread.

I hope with this new CEO we end this vicious cycle of creating more and more powerful weapons and struggling with this powercreep that's significantly shorting out Nexon's/Maplestory's lifespan.

Nexon America doesn't have that choice. 99% of the "power creep" decisions come from Nexon Korea.
