File extension epk seems to be mainly related to a special firmware package format used by LG. It is mainly used in Smart TVs and appears to be some kind of encrypted archive.
A typical .epk file is digitally signed and encrypted with AES encryption by 1024-bit private key.
These files are found and loaded automatically through the MENU -> SYSTEM SETTINGS -> ABOUT and SYSTEM UPDATES menu.

Metin2 was originally developed by Ymir Entertainment Co., Ltd. and released in China in 2004 before being released in Europe. The game uses EPK packages to store its installed data.
An .epk file is an encrypted package containing game resources such as graphics, text and sound files. Metin2 commonly uses these packages together with related index files that help the game locate their contents.
Metin2 opens its EPK files automatically when it runs on Microsoft Windows. A program called Metin2 File Extractor was used to inspect or extract EPK files, although compatibility with newer files may vary.
There is no standard conversion from an EPK package to another file format. A compatible Metin2 extraction tool can unpack the archive into its component game resources, but this is extraction rather than conversion.
