BioWare Visits Korea!

By Robin Mayne November 4, 2003

BioWare has recently returned from a Korean tour showcasing Neverwinter Nights, including Shadows of Undrentide and the upcoming Hordes of the Underdark expansion! The group consisted of several BioWarians, including one of our joint CEOs, Dr. Ray Muzyka, and Senior External Producer, Diarmid Clarke. Fortunately, they managed to take lots of pictures!

The first stop was a Neverwinter Nights LAN party at PC Bang, hosted by the Korean Asgard NWN Clan and their leader Lee Hyung Geun (who also helped with last year's Korean NWN LAN party!) Ray was more than happy sign some boxes in between presentations of our upcoming titles, such as Jade Empire.

It was then off to the opening ceremonies of the World Cyber Games Conference, quite a spectacular event! Ray was attending the WCG this year as a guest speaker, and both he and Diarmid attended meetings with developers and publishers after the conference. Ray and Diarmid finished the tour off at Atari Korea with a Shadows of Undrentide press demo.
