Overview

HAEGIN is a South Korean mobile game developer headquartered in Seoul, founded in September 2017 by Lee Young-il, a co-founder of the established gaming company Com2uS. The studio's flagship title is Play Together, a casual social platform game launched in April 2021 that has been described as a Korean answer to Roblox, and which had surpassed 100 million cumulative downloads with daily active users exceeding 4 million as of mid-2022.

Beyond Play Together, HAEGIN has published a range of mobile titles including Homerun Clash, OVERDOX, Extreme Golf, the KBO-licensed baseball game 2026 Professional Baseball GO!, and the post-apocalyptic action title Last Hunter K: Seoul, which launched in 13 countries in April 2026. More than 90% of the company's revenue and user traffic reportedly comes from international markets.

HAEGIN reached unicorn status (a valuation above $1 billion) after closing a roughly KRW100 billion (about $82.4 million) Series B round in March 2022 backed by Kakao Games, NetEase, VNG, Netmarble, KDB Industrial Bank, and other investors, and shortly after that round SK Square and SK Telecom jointly invested a further 50 billion won as strategic investors to integrate HAEGIN's gaming and metaverse technology into SK's AI and Web 3.0 services.

Private securities are speculative, illiquid, and involve risk of complete loss of principal. You should be prepared to hold private securities for an extended period; there is no assurance of a secondary market, an IPO, or other liquidity event. You are fully responsible for conducting your own due diligence. Pricing is indicative — nothing here is an offer of securities.
