Supporting Jeju Local Communities

NXC, in conjunction with Neople, supports local youth with new ideas. In August 2015, a new program was initiated under the name of 'The Youth Project for a New Jeju(a.k.a. Neo-Jeju),' which champions and uncovers young planners who would design and carry out various events and meetups that promote local communities.

NXC has been continuously supporting the Jeju Olle Trail as a close sponsor to preserve its natural envrionment, one that is considered to be the most beautiful and peaceful trails in the world. Along with the Jeju Federation for Environmental Movement and the Jeju Solidarity for Participatory Self-government & Environmental Preservation (JSPEP), NXC's efforts for the island's natural beauty will be firmly sustained.

NXC also supports various cultural art projects that can be organically grown into cultural ecosystems with an emphsis on its localities. Therefore, NXC continues to sponsor the local film festivals such as the Jeju Film Festival, the Jeju Women's Film Festival, the Jeju Disabled People's Human Rights Film Festival, and the Jeju French Film Festival. The company has not been sparing its effort for sponsoring a wide spectrum of local festivals in Jeju which includes the event like Jeju Fringe Festival.

*** Jeju-based Social Contribution Activities ***

Neople, a game development company located in Jeju, has contributed to the development of the local IT industry and software ecosystem since its relocation to the island, positively impacting job creation and regional economic growth. In addition, together with affiliates such as Nexon Networks, the company continues to expand employment and maintain stable business operations in Jeju, establishing itself as a locally rooted company.

In the field of education, Nexon supports initiatives such as the NYPC (Nexon Youth Programming Challenge) and the Hi-Five Challenge, helping enhance coding skills among Jeju youth and reducing the digital education gap. The company also contributes to the expansion of youth sports culture and the development of local football through programs such as the ‘FC Online – Stove League in Jeju’.

In addition, Nexon supports the development of young talents in arts and sports in Jeju through scholarship programs, while also expanding educational opportunities for underprivileged children through after-school learning programs such as ‘Dreamtle’. The company further supports vulnerable children through initiatives such as the Child Development Account matching fund program, while also contributing to welfare improvements through support for children from grandparent-led families and renovation of childcare facilities.
