Streams, they are portals to many great things: BW and SC2, Tournies and Laddering. From the beginning we had a little bit of everything:
Late Night BW Streams
Great Foreign Players
The Jack of All Streams
The God of Portal 2
Team Streams (VT used to have one, but yeah...)

But the one thing that was always missing was the Korean streamers.

For the longest time this guy:

Was the only Korean streamer (and the only singer) on TL.
And even though he is the best streamer ever, he can't do everything. He became a Streamer/Coach/Singer/Hamburglar/SexGod and he didn't have time to stream too much anymore.

But in the past few months that has changed drastically. TL has experienced a 1000+% increase in Korean Streamers, as you can see by the graph here:

This is beyond awesome. Being able to go onto TL and choose between watching 2-GSL Semi-Finalists or the Code A champion is like living in a dream. It is awesome that they take the time to entertain their foreign fans, and I hope things continue to head in this direction.

:D i think its because the korean SC2 association let korean SC2 progamers stream now :D thank you SC2 association!
also, not having an actual income sometimes kinda sucks, streaming helps rake in a bit of money to help you continue your progaming carrer.

and i just realized that Google Chrome doesnt think progamer is a word.. HERESY!
