NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang made a surprise appearance at the 'Portal Internet Cafe' near Sinnonhyeon Station in Gangnam District, Seoul, on the afternoon of the 7th to meet with NC CEO Kim Taek-jin. The meeting took place at the 'Surprise Live' event for the MMORPG 'Aion 2,' which NC was hosting at the same venue.

CEO Huang entered the internet cafe around 1:55 PM. He signed autographs for the fans in attendance, asking, "Is everyone playing Aion 2?" and "Who loves Aion 2 the most?" He energized the crowd by adding, "I love Aion 2, too," and "Who loves GeForce?" After meeting CEO Kim, he remarked, "Everyone here is your fan. They are all playing Aion 2," and even encouraged the crowd to chant "TJ."

Standing at the front with CEO Kim and NC officials, CEO Huang expressed his special affection for the Korean market. "Korea has always been a special place in my heart. Korea and GeForce have grown together," he said. "Because Korea invented esports, the industry was able to boom. Esports is a wonderful export from Korea." He added, "NVIDIA GeForce and Korean esports have grown together, and I have loved you all for a long time."

"I brought some gifts today," CEO Huang said, holding up a GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card. He introduced it as a "Founders Edition RTX 5,090," signed it, and remarked, "This will be the only one of its kind in the world." When CEO Kim held the microphone for him, Huang joked, "TJ is my wingman today."

The giveaway was conducted via an impromptu lucky draw. When CEO Huang called out a number, a winner emerged, and he joked, "Korean gamers are really fast, but they are so slow at recognizing numbers." He handed the signed RTX 5090 to the winner, saying, "You are rich now."

CEO Huang then continued with his introduction of new products. "The PC has always been the same throughout my life," he said, emphasizing that the PC is being reborn as a new device for design, creativity, gaming, and artificial intelligence (AI). He introduced a new chip, saying, "NVIDIA and Microsoft have developed a new architecture, and this chip, which took three years to create, is named 'N1X.'"

N1X is an Arm-based system-on-chip (SoC) for AI PCs developed by NVIDIA in collaboration with Microsoft and Taiwan's MediaTek. The chip is featured in the 'RTX Spark' superchip, which combines a Blackwell GPU with Arm-based cores designed by MediaTek. It is scheduled to launch this fall in new Windows PC products from Microsoft, Dell, HP, ASUS, Lenovo, and MSI.

NVIDIA first unveiled the N1X processor during its keynote at Computex 2026 in Taiwan on the 1st, declaring its entry into the PC chip market long dominated by Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, and Apple. At Computex, CEO Huang also revealed plans to expand the AI PC product line, stating, "If there is an N1X, there will be successors like N2X and N3X in the future."

At the event, CEO Huang held up a laptop and said, "Last week, we announced a new computer called RTX Spark." He described it as "very beautiful, powerful, thin, and with all-day battery life." He then presented RTX Spark vouchers to two lucky users, promising, "I will send them to you once mass production begins."

CEO Kim Taek-jin responded, "I heard about it for the first time right next to you, and it's amazing." CEO Jensen Huang and CEO Kim Taek-jin then took selfies with Aion two users before departing.

Meanwhile, NC is set to launch 'Aion 2' globally this September. Aion 2 supports NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) Frame Generation and NVIDIA Reflex. DLSS is a technology that uses AI to boost frame rates and resolution, helping to maintain high graphical quality and smooth responsiveness even during large-scale battles.
