Overview
- Court transcripts show CEO Kim Chang-han testified he searched ChatGPT for faster answers on Krafton’s rights and deleted some chats over concerns OpenAI could use company information.
- A June 2 message to Krafton executive Maria Park referenced ChatGPT responses indicating it would be difficult to cancel the earnout, according to filings discussed in testimony.
- Krafton argues reinstating the ousted leaders would be inappropriate, citing records describing burnout and a 'Litigation Help' memo with derogatory remarks about Korea to suggest disengagement.
- The former Unknown Worlds leaders allege Krafton engineered delays to dodge a $250 million earnout, a claim the company denies while saying development has recently made strong progress.
- With testimony concluded on November 19, both sides now prepare post-trial briefs ahead of a January 9, 2026 hearing before the Delaware Court of Chancery issues a decision.
