Nexon CEO Owen Mahoney will step down in March and be replaced by Junghun Lee

Nexon announced a leadership succession plan where longtime CEO Owen Mahoney will step down in March 2024 and be replaced by Junghun Lee.

That’s a big milestone as Mahoney had been in charge of the online games giant for a decade. He led the company to expansion, despite the fact he was a Westerner in charge of a company with its headquarters in Japan and much of its development staff in South Korea.
