“The largest budget was spent on a single event since the founding of Nexon.”
“The total recruitment cost is slightly less than 10 billion won.”
“There were a lot of legends that we wanted to invite, especially in the striker camp, but there were a lot of players that we couldn’t invite due to fitness issues.”
“There were cases where we were not invited because the players were not coming for a simple tourist trip but for commercial activities, so visas were not issued.”
“We also tried to recruit David Trezeguet, Gareth Bale, and Fernando Torres, but were unable to because of scheduling issues.”
“It is also unfortunate that we were not able to invite players like Toni Kroos and Iniesta, whose retirement timing was oddly different from their recruiting timing.”
“I saw a lot of reactions to the event matches (power shot competition, shooting match, etc.) on the first day saying, ‘Is this some kind of childish prank that brings together legends?’
The players really liked it. “There are players who have played in over 100 charity games, and they say that the event was really fun and that it was their first time doing something like this, and they really liked it.”
“I can’t guarantee that I will do it again because it is not an event that can be done with a small amount of money.”
