All the other entries are for hardware I know, so yes.

What they will give you is a Windows program in korean. Later examination
revealed it to be some kind of self-extracting ZIP file.
Inside are some binary kernel modules they wrote which are specific to RedHat
7.1's version 2.4.2 kernel.
They've just updated their Windows drivers, so they -may- release a more
recent version, but I'd prefer not to have a closed binary module present.
