Disclaimer: picture-heavy!
Some of you know that I was in Korea for the past 3 weeks, mainly to visit family and see friends but an awesome additional plus was of course, starcraft!
I planned on going to see the GSL on the 16th since MMA was playing as well as the one liquid player I hadn't met yet, Liquid`Zenio. I was hoping I could get some photos and a video so that the foreign community could get to know him more since we haven't seen much yet. Thank you to both Nazgul and Huk for letting him know I was coming; I'm sure he would've been really confused if some random person accosted him for photos and a video otherwise haha. Wolf was incredibly awesome (thank you again!) and helped me find the studio and gave me a quick tour of the place; it was surprisingly smaller than expected. Inside the studio, I saw Mr. Chae and his co-commentator -
Then during this pre-show they were doing, they brought Zenio out! Finally saw him for the first time
Afterward, I introduced myself and because he was playing second, there was some time for some photos and a quick video message (video is at the bottom of this blog)
It was time for the matches to begin so I went back into the studio and took a quick photo of MMA setting up in his booth ^_^
Tasteless came out after getting ready and took a second to pose
I asked to take a picture of all the casters together
We met some awesome fans from San Francisco and got caught in the screencap haha
Then it was time for Zenio to play!! Was nervous the entire time ><; Was ecstatic when he won his first match against Yugioh though!
Also props to Wolf for getting me sweet seats on the gstl benches!
I then made a cheerful which apparently wasn't properly seen on the stream ;; thank you TLO for letting me know ;;;

I tried to hold up the cheerful longer the next time and some people got it on stream :p
Was really heartbroken when Zenio lost T______T... but good fight nonetheless!!
Afterward I got a chance to talk to Mr. Chae a bit which was nice since I hadn't seen him since IPL3 which was way back in October. He is such an awesome man, really hope he can make it out to more foreign events given the chance!
And then the night ended with dranks with Wolf and Tasteless. Thanks Tasteless for coming out despite having casted a long day ^^;; Good times and talks were had~
and LAST but certainly not least, here is the video message by Liquid`Zenio to the foreign community!! It was pretty impromptu, but I think you guys will be impressed with his English for sure ^_^ Let's cheer for Zenio in his IEM run!!

Awesome pictures, Smix! Hope you had fun! ^^

Nice pictures! The GSL studio really does look much bigger on stream than it does in person.
|
Saw your sign while watching GSL. Exciting blog entry, really well done 
|
Amazing Saw your sign live, I'm so jealous
|
I appreciate the pictures, BUT WHY NOT MORE MMA?
Also, tasteless looks like Robin from Batman Forever.

I got to talk to MMA a bit but after he finished (and yugioh was out) slayers players left a bit earlier so I didn't get a chance to get pictures with him ;_;

|
Tasteless so handsome. Nice pics Smix. Looks like you had a blast.

Wow so cool. Imagine sitting in the same seat that greats like MMA/DRG/Clide/QXC have sat while waiting for their turn to all-kill their opponents o.O
Also Gom should make the GSL Studios into like an overnight hotel for foreign fans who misplanned their holiday and could only make last minute appeals on TL Blogs for a place to stay.

How'd you like the rest of Korea? :D
|
Wow he has really good english. Zenio Fighting! Awesome pictures smix

So that's what you look like! I remember the whole stir back when you posted the pictures in this blog, sans face. I guess that was a long time ago.
Nice blog, by the way. I wasn't going to click on it when I saw the title, but then I saw who wrote it so I went to see. The things you post are usually worth looking at.

So awesome!
♥ Smix and we love you too Zenio
Thanks for sharing all of this with us!
