This increase was mainly due to increased revenues from Ragnarok Origin which was launched in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau on September 15, 2022 and such increase was partially offset by decreased revenues from Ragnarok Origin in Korea and Ragnarok X: Next Generation in Southeast Asia and Taiwan.

Other revenue was KRW 15,590 million (US$ 12,371 thousand) in 2022, representing a 15.3% decrease from KRW 18,404 million in 2021.
