AI Summary
Dynamis One executives are now under prosecution for alleged data theft from Nexon Games. The studio previously faced a firestorm over the similarity of their now-cancelled Project KV to Blue Archive. Both parties are preparing for the upcoming legal proceedings as the investigation continues.

Dynamis One, the developer behind the 'Project KV' controversy, has been referred to the prosecution.
According to a report by Yonhap News on the 17th, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's Industrial Technology Security Investigation Unit has referred Dynamis One CEO Park Byung-lim and other key figures to the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office without detention. CEO Park is accused of unauthorized removal of data from an unreleased Nexon Games project following his departure.
Dynamis One is a startup established by Park Byung-lim, the former Japanese server PD of Nexon Games' hit title 'Blue Archive', along with other core developers. Their debut project, 'Project KV', which was unveiled last August, faced controversy over its similarity to Blue Archive, leading the studio to announce the cancellation of the project just one week after its reveal.
Following a police raid on Dynamis One's headquarters on February 24th, investigators concluded that key personnel had leaked unreleased project data while leaving Nexon Games. The investigation focused on whether this data was utilized in their actual game development. During the raid, CEO Park claimed, "While it is difficult to disclose specific details as the matter is under investigation, much of the alleged content is far from the truth."
A Dynamis One representative stated regarding the referral to the prosecution, "We will diligently participate in the upcoming legal proceedings." Meanwhile, a spokesperson for Nexon Games told Gamemeca, "Nexon Games intends to cooperate fully with all future procedures."

'프로젝트 KV'로 논란을 일으킨 개발사 디나미스 원 관계자들이 검찰에 넘겨졌다.
17일 연합뉴스에 따르면 서울경찰청 산업기술안보수사대는 서울중앙지방검찰청에 디나미스 원 박병림 대표 및 관계자들을 불구속 송치했다. 디나미스 원 박병림 대표는 퇴사 후 넥슨게임즈가 개발 중이던 미공개 프로젝트의 자료를 무단으로 반출한 혐의를 받고 있다.
디나미스 원은 넥슨게임즈 대표작 '블루 아카이브' 일본 서버 PD를 맡은 박병림 대표와 주요 제작진이 퇴사 후 설립한 신생 개발사다. 작년 8월에 공개한 신작 '프로젝트 KV'가 블루 아카이브와 유사성 논란이 제기됐고, 발표 1주 만에 개발 중단을 선언했다.
이후 지난 2월 24일 경찰은 디나미스 원 사옥을 압수수색했다. 경찰은 디나미스 원 핵심 인력이 넥슨게임즈를 퇴사하는 과정에서 미공개 프로젝트를 무단으로 유출한 것으로 판단했으며, 이를 실제 게임 개발해 활용했는지 여부 등을 중점적으로 살폈다. 압수수색 당시 디나미스 원 박병림 대표는 "수사 중인 사안으로 구체적인 내용을 밝히기는 어려우나, 혐의 내용은 사실과 다른 부분이 많다"고 주장한 바 있다.
디나미스 원 관계자는 이번 검찰 송치에 대해 “이어질 법적 절차에 성실히 임하겠다”고 전했다. 한편, 넥슨게임즈 관계자는 게임메카와의 통화에서 "넥슨게임즈는 향후 절차에 최선을 다해 협조할 예정이다"라고 전했다.
