Hey Busan Web3 Game Connect,
Busan is like a sacred place for game developers in Korea.
Every year, G-Star is held here as Korea’s flagship gaming festival.

I hope this very first BW3GC grows into an event that captures global attention beyond Korea. And it’s an honor for me to be part of this very first step.

[Anh Tran @SaigonButcher]
