Here's the dilemma; OSL finals clashes with 2010's Dream Concert. There is no physical way to do both, because one is at World Cup Stadium in Seoul and the other is at Gimpo Airport in...well Gimpo.
I can access both locations easily via the subway/taxis (Although finding the hangar might be a strange/slightly awkward experience.)
So I'm now stuck with the problem of;
POLLING IS OVER! I'm off to OSL finals for the third year running 
Poll: What to Do on the 22nd?Go to OSL finals and report for TL. (162) 68% Go to Dream Concert. (76) 32% 238 total votes Your vote: What to Do on the 22nd? (Vote): Go to OSL finals and report for TL.
(Vote): Go to Dream Concert.
+ Show Spoiler +OSL Finals Pros/Cons:Pros: + TL gets exclusive English language coverage/videos and photos. + I get to photograph a finals again. + Free dinner afterwards usually + Potentially a live music act opening it. Maybe. Cons: + The location is a bit of a trip (maybe about 2 hours total.) + I will get one of my usual stress headaches. + Less hot Asians. Dream Concert Pros/Cons:+ Going with friends. + I get to see Beast finally plus a tonne of other groups. + Easier access location. + I haven't paid my friend for my ticket ($5) so it's no loss. Cons: + Sitting alone due to friends not being able to find seats for us all together. + Can't photograph it. My seat is way too far back even for my DSLR to handle it and there's no way to sneak to the front because security is way too tight (I know this from going last year and seeing how it seemed to be very well organized.) +++ Help me TL! I'm struggling with this choice.

Go to whichever one you think you will have more fun at.
|
|
|
Pros:
+ TL gets exclusive English language coverage/videos and photos.
---
Help me TL! I'm struggling with this choice.
=). OSL would be so awesome, especially seeing them transform a plane hanger into a stadium for the finals.

Plus it's basically become a tradition for me to cover finals as long as they're not in Busan. The only one I've skipped due to personal reasons was Jangbi versus Luxury @ Gom Art Hall.

Hmmm... I think the poll may be slightly skewed on this website.
I'd so go to the one where you feel less obligated to 'work'.
|
your choice rly
gotta find out who goes to dream concert thou
im sure awesome pics will be the result regardless of your choice ^^
edit; wow thats a pretty star studded lineup (specifically the snsd <3)
dam. do i wanta c my fav. player flash or a sick conert 
dbl edit: i actually kinda like bad girl and shock
but yea flash is sexy 0.0
|
beast is lame
there is no one hotter than flash
|
If there are no hot asian pics from concert then the choice is obvious.

That's the main sticking point for me. I was alright at last year's Dream Concert since I provided the first fancam of 2pm's first performance without Jaebeom and it got 80k views and made tonnes of people cry (oops.) but this time I am even further away :S
|
Definitely hot asians... at OSL finals

Ah... yeah if you had a better situation and closer up with the girls then perhaps I would urge you to take that opportunity. But hey, you can't go wrong with an OSl Final!!!!!
|
Are hot asians really so hard to find in South Korea?
I think OSL finals sounds more fun than a concert where you can't sit with friends... but if one of your top favorite groups is performing then you should see them while you have the chance.

Free dinner is a HUGE pro, and you get to photograph stuff. At the whatever concert you sit so far back you can't photograph, so besides not being able to do that...you're sitting way far back...and even if they are hot asians (Flash is way hotter though), you're nowhere near them. And if you go to the OSL no need to stress, relax and take some drugs before going.

haha i agree with this
i was gonna say 'go take photos of the babes' but since that's out of the question, go to the osl lol.
or go to whichever you will enjoy the most
also nevergg are you a lesbian?

On a serious note just go to the one you think you will have more fun.

STFU I like them. Anyway, it's tonnes of people from SNSD, Afterschool to 2pm and uh...other people. I kind of forgot the full list. It's pretty epic, but that airport hangar is beckoning to me...

I would go to Dream Concert.
It all depends on your priorities though. Which option will make you regret more later on?
|
Since you can't take pics, then definitely the OSL finals.
+ Show Spoiler +But it sounds like you really, really want to go to the Concert, so that's a good choice, too. Whichever decision you make, much love for all you do and try to do for all of us. And if you go to the concert all will be forgiven if you can find some way to get exclusive pics of Yuri. ;p
Edit: Just saw the list. Will you be able to forgive yourself if you go to the OSL and it's a one-sided laugher and you miss that lineup? Go to the concert!

Obviously you don't love them enough to get better seats.
OSL it is.

but...you could watch flash get the golden mouse...

the poll is redundant really
it's your choice, so there's no need in letting other people decide where you should go. :D
i would recommend dream concert, not because i love kpop, but because you can hang out with your friends and stuff. contributing to TL is fine, but your personal life is important as well.
|
|
|
You do enough for TL. Take a break and go have fun.
|
|
|
|
|
if nevergg were to do neither, there'd probably be more dream concert pics...
|
|
|
The concert list is IMBA.

do whatever you want to do
personally i'd go to the concert
|
lol @ everyone changing their tune and say go to the concert.
Only thing you'd be really missing at OSL finals is a probable golden mouse... but you saw JD get his so it's all good, yes?
|
Concert definitely. Not that I know anything about Dream, but if you're going with friends... ~~ Bound to be fun, right!
|
|
|
Not being able to photograph Dream Concert is a dealbreaker in my opinion. Go to the OSL Final.
|
You have a greater chance of picking up hot chicks at the concert. Fuck Starcraft, you want to be a nerd forever son?
|
AFAIK NeverGG isn't a lesbian.
Concert wins; this thread should be closed.

I'd go to the concert with my mates man.. Up to you though, just seems like you'd have more fun at the concert.

Hahahahahaha. I'm more of a daughter. Thanks for the replies everyone. I'm still debating it since the big lure for me is photographing potentially a massive upset win for whoever it is against Flash or him getting his Golden Mouse. Also I doubt we'll get another finals in an aircraft hangar.

Daughter or not, don't let that stop you from picking up hot chicks

nvm i change my mind
dream concert looks ridiculously epic
also, the probability that either effort or kal will keep flash from his golden mouse is rather low
|
The OSL should change their finals date =p Would be stupid of them to rent the most epic venue ever only to have noone show up due to some concert ~~
|
go to osl
i see asians everyday
|
well it's pretty obvious what the poll result is gonna be since you posted this on a starcraft site.... ^_^ have fun at the osl

OSL is bound to be rather one-sided, and is easily accessible by videos later. Go to concert if you enjoy it. That poll was quite terrible idea though- it doesn't show why people want you to take such action which people making their recommendation by posting usually does.
|
Concert and watch OSL on TV!~
|
|
|
Wtf is dream? Go to OSL you kid.
|
Girls > Starcraft every single time.
That being said, I will say do the OSL since you're going to be stuck in the back and unable to take sweet pics of the girls anyway...

Others keep pointing out that not being able to take pics at the dream concert is a dealbreaker but I actually think you'd enjoy the concert more by not being preoccupied with taking pics~ they're really nice afterward but for the full experience I feel like it's better to go just with friends and a fangirl heart~
|
Just make up your own mind of course. Just think, feel, choose.
Imagine the night of those events and you are getting ready for the chosen event , which one would you be more excited to be getting ready?
It's not too complicated.
BUT, if you really want us to pick for you, make a new poll about something arbitrary, but secretly assign a choice to each one
Chocolate or Vanilla?!
Then go based on vote.
|
|
|
flash and kal are hot asians.
kinda.
|
I'm seriously tempted by hot Asians, but I think the OSL has the potential to epic.
Which ever, toss a coin, or cut a deck of cards.

Funnily enough from experience I'm the absolute opposite. It might be alright if I was sitting with my friends as a distraction. I usually tend to sit there seething impotently about how (most of) the Korean photographers (not fan photographers who often do a lovely job.) who are covering it usually take ugly shots and don't care about what they're photographing.
I looked at the line up and it went like this;
Super Junior - seen/photographed.
SNSD - seen/photographed 3 times.
2PM - seen/photographed/spanked Chansung's arm.
Wonder Girls - seen/photographed/don't care about them.
Rain - Don't care.
Lee Hyori - Seen.
SS501 - Don't care.
KARA - seen/photographed.
After School - Don't care.
SHINee - Seen/photographed.
f(x) - Seen.
BEAST - ARGHHHHHHH, but they're rookies so there's plenty of time.
T-ara - Seen.
MBLAQ - Weirdly apathetic despite their muscles.
4minute - Don't care.
U-Kiss - Met/Seen/Stalked/photographed/given cat toys/touched Alexander.
Rainbow - Don't care.
ZE:A - LOL.
Davichi - Don't care.
F.cuz - Not seen, but again they're rookies.
Thanks to everyone who voted. I'm still debating this one, but we'll see. I'm leaning more towards OSL due to the uniqueness even if Flash is liable to stomp all over it again (Golden mouse time yo!)

I used to, but they bogged off to Japan for too long and also since meeting HJ I'm not keen since he's not half as nice as his little brother. I did like their last single, but I'm just not as fussed as I used to be.

I saw her perform at ASF back in 2007. I've met U-kiss a couple of times, Epik High and Chansung from 2pm. I need to go to more fan signings.

dream concert :3
so many good artists
|
Korean pop is totally lame so...
|
I would go to see the OSL finals, but since Flash is going to rape it 3-0, you'd better go to the concert, the line-up is impressive :o !
|
OSL, if you are in the back, you won't get much fulfillment on hot asians

Unless you can get some action with the Dream Concert go with it, not like we can change your mind anyways.
If you live, breathe, sleep SC, I would go with the OSL. Hot babes are always around, just talk to them

LOL for the millionth time - I am not a man. I'm not fussed on talking to 'babes' I just want to photograph Soshi more often.

This is easy. OSL Finals. You'll love the venue. Korean Pop is a drag imo. Thought he songs can be quite catchy.

Hmm either way while KPop is cool I have to say Starcraft.

Yeah, I already researched the location. It's really close to my house so I'll definitely be covering it for TL Who is potentially in it? I've not been keeping track of the individual tourneys lately.

It's Calm vs Jaedong and Flash vs free in the semis.
So... calling for a Flash vs Jaedong rematch.

That's quite a lineup there for the concert! I'd say go to the concert and then cover the MSL Finals next!

Well since I covered the last Flash versus JD fiasco I've got another reason to go. Hopefully this time we won't be locked in the press room under guard for almost two hours :S I'd like to see any combination of these players at the finals, but that is indeed potentially epic.

I know I've been on hiatus since November so there's a flood of new posters who don't know much about me; including my gender.

I'm actually surprised at the number of people that voted for Dream Concert. This is teamliquid lol, OSL all the way!
