South Korea Supreme Court Orders Ironmace to Pay 5.76 Billion Won in Trade Secret Case

South Korea's Supreme Court upheld a lower court's ruling ordering game developer Ironmace to pay 5.76 billion won ($3.87 million) in damages to rival Nexon for trade secret infringement. The case centers on allegations that Ironmace's CEO, a former Nexon employee, leaked source code from Nexon's P3 game project before creating Dark and Darker. The court rejected Nexon's copyright infringement claim.
