No and no :(.

I found scans of 1 of the 2 PC gaming magazines I bought as a kid, and I'm going to go through them as soon as the moderator on the webpage accepts my registration.

Unfortunately it's not on one of the demo disks I remembered it to be, so it probably
was on the magazine I can't find scans of...I will keep you posted guys

The guys at the retro forum couldn't help me, but I found some old magazine scans and coincidence would have it they had a feature on games made in Korea (and this article was written in 2000) and...........

FOUND IT :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

I want to first apologize for the genre (turns out it's an action RPG) and about the protagonist (he had light brown hair instead of blonde)

But at least I was correct about it being number 3 in a series :P

Very Cool. Glad you found it. I know how that can get on your nerves when you want to remember something like that!

I enjoyed learning about other JRPGs and Korean games on PC. Here's a list I found with a bunch I had never even heard of :

Yes. Actually I want to try out like 3-4 games from this thread. That is why I changed the topic title. It's a shame for such an interesting conversation to end.
