Nexon announced on the 21st that it will operate the branding room 'FC Online Lounge' for its authentic online soccer game 'EA SPORTS FC™ Online' (FC Online) in collaboration with Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors FC at its home stadium, Jeonju World Cup Stadium.

The 'FC Online Lounge' is the first branding room in the country that connects gaming and professional sports, featuring the highest-grade spectator seating, the skybox, themed around 'FC Online,' providing a unique viewing experience that combines real soccer and gaming. Inside the lounge, four PCs and relay monitors are installed, allowing for real-time gameplay along with the match viewing.
