News:: DJMax is finally coming to the west in earnest, we talked to developer Neowiz about how it happened

It's mostly stuck to South Korea with very few exceptions since 2004, which is insane given that the import scene is so active (I was given a figure of 100,000 in sales in the US without localizations for select titles).

That's why it's so crazy that DJMax Respect is hitting the PS4 worldwide, in one of the biggest marketing pushes in the history of the series. I caught up with Seung-shul Baek, Director of Development at Neowiz, to see how this herculean task even came about.
