SK Planet team leader, Jung Incheul, commented, “We hope that this business agreement will allow customers to enjoy the web3 environment more easily and conveniently. We expect great synergy in the future as we combine the capabilities of both companies, such as introducing Oasys network’s content IP to customers through the UPTN Station.”
