(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=Apr-GfzFkgxY3FNiiAF2Xgr7xLCxfm08pJzgfG_JUGT-FLO0kxRLyg1kg2WWXLD9qed6RWxI0FyZdOYGwWI59gHUMgwTT5LccJ6lnzoT6YPxj3RAmhuXkSy8CZEN2XSa\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><u>NASDAQ: KWM<\/u><\/a>) (&#8220;KWM&#8221; or\u00a0the &#8220;Company&#8221;) today announced new additions to its board and executive leadership team, which will assist KWM in executing its strategic direction and initiatives. KWM has appointed Joongjae Lee as a director and as Chairman of the KWM Board of Directors, and Richard Kim (Kim Myungjong) as a director and Co-Chief Executive Officer alongside Ted Kim. The appointments became effective immediately.<\/p>\n<p>KWM believes that the appointments strengthen KWM&#8217;s ability to identify, evaluate, and integrate acquisitions in AI infrastructure, semiconductor technologies, and advanced manufacturing as KWM continues to execute its transformation strategy, and that the appointments also support KWM&#8217;s active acquisition pipeline. KWM is currently conducting due diligence on multiple opportunities in AI infrastructure, semiconductor components and advanced manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Joongjae Lee currently also serves as the Chief Executive Officer of Rabbit Walk Co., Ltd., a Korea-based producer of AI-driven and real-time visual content, in which KWM acquired a majority interest in 2026. Mr. Lee brings technical expertise in applied AI, including generative AI production pipelines, AI-based digital humans and real-time rendering infrastructure. As Chairman, Mr. Lee is expected to help shape KWM&#8217;s technology strategy across the AI value chain and to support the technical evaluation of prospective acquisition targets.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Richard Kim will serve as KWM\u2019s Co-Chief Executive Officer, together with Ted Kim. Both will serve on and report to the KWM Board. Mr. Kim has 30 years of experience in corporate finance, cross-border M&amp;A, and listed-company management. He has led multiple strategic acquisitions, including transactions in the semiconductor-related business, and has successfully executed post-acquisition integrations that expanded operating capabilities and created long-term value. Mr. Kim has also held senior executive leadership positions at multiple KOSPI- and KOSDAQ-listed companies, overseeing both corporate operations and finance.<\/p>\n<p>Under the new structure, Richard Kim will lead KWM\u2019s business operations, corporate strategy, acquisition execution, and post-acquisition integration, working primarily from Korea, where KWM&#8217;s operating assets and acquisition pipeline are located. Ted Kim will lead capital formation, investor relations, and KWM&#8217;s U.S. regulatory, Nasdaq, and capital markets activities.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Our acquisition strategy requires strong leadership in both Korea and the U.S.,&#8221; said Joongjae Lee, Chairman of the Board. &#8220;The Co-CEO structure allows one team to focus on sourcing and integrating acquisitions while the other focuses on capital markets, creating a stronger platform for execution.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The new leadership team has already begun executing KWM&#8217;s acquisition strategy, including sourcing and advancing previously announced acquisition opportunities in the semiconductor sector. Mr. Richard Kim has already demonstrated his execution capabilities by identifying, sourcing and advancing KWM&#8217;s recently announced semiconductor acquisition opportunity, reflecting the industry relationships and transactions he brings to KWM.<\/p>\n<p>Richard Kim said, &#8220;Over the next 12 months, my objective is straightforward: complete strategic acquisitions, integrate profitable businesses, expand recurring revenue and operating cash flow, and create long-term shareholder value.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>KWM intends to pursue potential acquisitions using a disciplined capital allocation strategy designed to minimize shareholder dilution while maintaining financial flexibility through a combination of equity, debt and strategic financing alternatives where appropriate.<\/p>\n<p>KWM also expects to provide additional updates regarding acquisition milestones, technical leadership appointments, and corporate branding initiatives as those milestones are achieved.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, following the share consolidation completed earlier this month, KWM has received shareholder approval to change its corporate name at the Board\u2019s discretion. The change remains subject to completion of customary filings with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies and notification to Nasdaq. KWM expects its ordinary shares to begin trading under the new name &#8220;NEXUS Advanced Technologies Inc.&#8221; and the ticker symbol NASDAQ: [NXAT] on or about August 21, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About K Wave Media Ltd.<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>K Wave Media Ltd.
