http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/biz...30556.html Animation companies including Walt Disney Co (DIS.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) have shown an interest in Nexon, South Korea's No.2 online game maker, according to the Nexon's founder. Another industry source said Disney proposed 2-3 trillion won to acquire Nexon.
Reuteres News (click here to see news about Disney & Nexon)....Kim Jung-ju, president of Nexon Holdings, the parent company of Nexon, seemed to agree when he hinted to a local newspaper that he might opt to sell a chunk of his 68 percent plus stake in the online game publisher if the right deal emerges.
However, after Kim’s comments were reported, Nexon officials were busy on the phones denying speculation that they are about to become employees of Walt Disney.
``No, it is not true,’’ said a Nexon spokesman, who claimed that Kim’s words were taken out of context in the interview.
The Nexon official revealed that the company has been negotiating with Walt Disney over potential business projects, such as releasing animation based on the characters of its popular games such as Maple Story, which has a strong following in the U.S. However, the talks have never been about selling company shares, he said.
An official at Walt Disney Korea declined to confirm whether the company is interested in Nexon or any other domestic online game provider. However, he said Walt Disney is committed to increasing its game-related revenue here, although there are no significant business projects to comment on as of yet.

``Right now, I have no plans to sell Nexon, which I worked so hard to develop over the past 15 years,’’ said Nexon’s founder.
``However, if they approach us with plans for an indirect investment or other reasonable offer, I will positively consider them,’’ he said.
