Early Development

Ginno Games was founded on July 21, 2009 by Won-Hee Park and Chang-Han Kim; Park served as CEO while Kim served as Chief Technology Officer. Ginno Games received venture capital funding from Bon Angels Venture Partners (a leading early-stage venture capital firm in Korea).

Development of Devilian (originally known as Immortal Online) began in 2009. Ginno Games was eventually acquired by Bluehole Studios (finalized in early 2015 through an equity stock swap with Bluehole Ginno operating independently as a subsidiary). Chang-Han Kim also acted as Project Director at Bluehole Ginno and also served as Executive Producer for Devilian.
