Explanatory Note

As previously disclosed, on December 19, 2025, Playverse Co. Ltd. (“Playverse”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of K Wave Media Ltd. (the “Company”), entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Hansol Purchase Agreement”) with Hansol Holdings Co., Ltd. (“Hansol Holdings”), Lee Mi-sung and Cho Hyun-seung (collectively, the “Hansol Sellers”), pursuant to which Playverse agreed to purchase from the Hansol Sellers and the Hansol Sellers agreed to sell to Playverse an aggregate of 5,864,088 shares common stock (the “Hansol Shares”) of Hansol Inticube Co., an AI language and software development company with core capabilities in AI contact center solutions, voice recognition, chatbots, smart solutions and platform technologies (“Hansol”).

On March 10, 2026, Playverse consummated the purchase of the Hansol Shares pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Hansol Purchase Agreement. The Hansol Shares represent approximately 42.25% of the outstanding shares of common stock of Hansol.

Pursuant to the Hansol Purchase Agreement, the aggregate purchase price for the Hansol Shares was KRW15,000,337,104. The Hansol Purchase Agreement contained customary representations, warranties and covenants by the parties and customary indemnification obligations of the parties.

Pursuant to the Hansol Purchase Agreement, Hansol Holdings caused Hansol to convene an annual general meeting of Hansol’s shareholders for the purpose of electing individuals designated by the Company to serve as members of the Hansol board of directors, and such Company designees now hold a majority of the seats on the Hansol board of directors.
