Minister Yoo said, "Disclosure of probability-type item information is the first step to restoring trust between game companies and game users," and promised, "We will do our best to ensure the system settles and enhances the rights and interests of game users." He added, "As outlined in the 'Comprehensive Plan for the Promotion of the Game Industry' announced on the 1st, I will lead the Korean game industry to a new leap forward."

The probability-type item information disclosure system has been in effect since March 22. The Game Rating and Administration Committee's monitoring team has detected 105 cases, including 64 games that did not display probability information, up to this month. They have requested corrections and asked for data on six cases suspected of false probabilities, striving to enforce the system.
