[Special Stock] NCSoft Drops Over 9% the Day After New Release
NCSoft released its new massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) "Throne and Liberty" (TL), but its stock price dropped more than 9%.
As of 9:50 a.m. on the 8th, NCSoft was trading at 237,000 KRW, down 9.37% from the previous close. In the early morning session, it even fell to 224,500 KRW, a sharp decline of 14.15% compared to the previous day.
This decline appears to be due to the disappearance of positive factors as the highly anticipated new release officially launched.
