In other words, the parent company NCsoft emphasized several times regarding the operation of NC, a professional baseball team. Whenever rumors of a sale came out due to deteriorating performance, NCsoft's top management drew the line, saying, "There is no sale." Rather, he expressed his firm commitment to NC's operation, saying, "The baseball team is helpful to NCsoft."

Recently, however, NC has been suffering from the city's irresponsible attitude and local media's reports that are different from the facts. NC is pushing Changwon City to make an improvement plan that the city has requested for "co-prosperity." It has even brought up the rumor that its parent company NCsoft's management is deteriorating, but it is far from the truth.카지노사이트

The background of the relocation of NC`s headquarters, which was recently raised by local media in Changwon, contains nuances pointing to NCsoft`s deteriorating finances. Rumors have it that the club requested Changwon City for cash aid and that the relocation was a paving stone for the possibility of the club`s sale. However, this is a distortion of the fact.

What the club requested from Changwon City is not "support," but "fulfillment of promises." This is because Changwon City has not properly followed the agreements and consultations that have continued since its inception. Changwon City is responsible for the purchase of advertisements and tickets worth 2.3 billion won per year and the compensation for losses caused by the temporary closure of its home stadium.

The claim that it is because the parent company's finances have become difficult is also not true. NCsoft's overall corporate financial position is still solid. As of the first quarter of 2025, NCsoft's cash equivalents amounted to 1.511 trillion won. The actual liquidity of funds is very high, including short-term financial products and investment assets.

The deficit recorded for the first time since its foundation last year is only an accounting loss due to a one-time reflection of consolation money, and its essential business base is still stable. It turned surplus again in the first quarter of this year, and is preparing to rebound ahead of the release of expected works such as 'Ion 2' from the second half of this year.

To NCsoft, NC is not just a marketing tool. It is viewed as a symbolic asset that grows with the local community. "The bottom line is no sale," an NCsoft source said. "(Selling the baseball team) could undermine the company's core competitiveness in the long run."

In other words, the current controversy over the relocation of the location is not due to NCsoft's financial or management deterioration. It is a 'just warning' against Changwon City's repeated failure to keep promises and distorted public opinion in the local media. With such a lack of local affection and trust, NC's departure from Changwon can be a realistic answer.

Currently, several regions are being discussed as candidates for NC's next affiliation. Among them, Seongnam City and Ulsan Metropolitan City emerge as strong candidates. Both regions have attractive conditions in terms of sports infrastructure, administrative support, and market size. "There is no reason not to consider moving the Yeongoji at this point," a baseball industry official said.

The bottom line is simple. NCsoft remains strong and there is no sale of NC. However, if Changwon City and local media continue to put irresponsible frames on it, NC can change its location. If you don't like the temple, you can leave the middle.
