Has anyone noticed how bland and unremarkable most of the players are portrayed in it? Especially last years finalists walking through park/school like pussies, (Z)Jaedong on the other hand

Fucking blows up a bulding! Badass

Go watch his game against (P)Pure if you are not convinced.

that's how his name is spelled.

There are different romanizations used for Korean right now, I think "Je" is from the more correct/recent system of romanization. "Je" is also much closer to the actual pronunciation of his name than "Jae" (which is not supposed to be pronounced like Jay but closer to Jeh).

Jae or Je , doesn't matter. It's not English, remember? They have different ways of romanizing things, I believe their might even be a standard, but who cares?

I guess thats because of recent changes how to romanize Korean.
TL is sticking with the old way as it says Lee Jae Dong in player database.

I'd attribute it more to the innately repressed nature of (most) progamers than the lack of creativity by the production team. But the 'blandness' is consistent with Jaedong's image as the ice man with the death-stare.

Having said that this OSL opening is really disappointing, hasnt grown on me at all.

so might be expected. I couldn't see Pure in the Intro clearly. He's like a street fighter but the camera didn't focus on his face. He got robbed. Jee Jee.

제 = Jeh.

I guess the whole Jaedong thing started because the man himself used "Jae" in his name tags.

Yea, the players themselves romanized their own names and they probably still think that jae=jeh.

It's not Doon. It's Dong. But you place some emphasis on the 'o'.

Haha you made me laugh with the Intro Thing.
Actually... Jae is indeed the only one who is "evil" in that Opening XD~

And because of the Jae/Je/Jeh whatever thing...
Since he is calling himself JAEdong, I'd also continue with Jae Dong and also think Je Dong is weirdo o,O
