Originally, this paper was prepared for an international conference of gaming. We were rejected for some shortcomings. Severe comments from two game academics were extremely appropriate, and gave great helps to revise this work. Now, we are in work to improve this article.

For all of its weaknesses, we decided to open this work. A critical consideration on the success of an MMORPG of Korea shed some lights on the unique side of playing MMORPGs. Maybe, you could look some deep secrets in the dazzling growth of gaming market of Korea.

This paper is still going on, so if you give us any comment on this, it is really helpful for us.
