HanbitSoft Inc. (한빛소프트주식회사) is a Korean publisher and developer established in January 1999 [1] by Kim Young-man, formerly a manager at LG LCD's (formerly LG Soft) software publishing unit. [2] In December 1998, LG LCD was reorganized to focus on its LCD and system integration businesses; the decision was made to get out of the content business, which was becoming less profitable. Kim proposed spinning it off; LG agreed and sold it to Kim for ₩300,000,000. [3]
HanbitSoft initially found great success as the Korean publisher of StarCraft, which would go on to sell six million copies there. [4] The company later focused on online games; developer JoyImpact was acquired in 2003 [5], a joint venture with Hitachi called Hanbit Ubiquitous Entertainment was established in 2004 to provide services in Japan [6], and a game portal called "Hanbit ON!!" opened in 2005. [7]
In 2008, Kim sold two-thirds of his shares in HanbitSoft to T3 Entertainment. [8]
