TREE NEWS update: Kingnet Network announced on the evening of September 12 that it plans to take an indirect equity stake in South Korean game company Wemade. Wemade is listed on KOSDAQ, was among South Korea’s first-generation online game developers, and is the original rights holder of the influential “Legend” IP.
Kingnet Network to Take Indirect Stake in Korean Game Firm Wemade
AI take
This is a Chinese gaming firm reaching for exposure to one of Korea's foundational game IPs rather than a fresh content deal, so the signal is strategic positioning around the "Legend" franchise and KOSDAQ-listed assets. It matters most to Kingnet's shareholders and to Wemade, whose IP value and Korean listing make it a cross-border target. The open question is how indirect the structure really is — the layer of ownership will determine whether Kingnet gains influence or merely financial exposure.
