Some weeks ago Dailyesports started this series on Korean Special Force 2 team hostels/practice houses called "Sookso Attack". Basically, each week, reporter Lee Sora pays a surprise visit to one team's hostel and provides us with pictures and insights on their living conditions. Some of the pictures are amusing so I thought I'd share them with you. So far, she's visited the hostels of IT Bank, STX Soul, SKT and KT Rolster.



IT Bank Legend

IT Bank's team lives at an officetel in Ilsan. When Lee Sora arrived there, she found it surprisingly clean and tidy for an all guys hostel.

STX Soul

When Lee Sora arrived at the STX hostel, the players were still sleeping. She was shocked at the appearance of star sniper Ryu Je Hong (the former Lunatic-hai counter-strike player), with his helmet hair and sloppy trousers, who looked a far cry from his charismatic self during broadcasts.

SKT T1

SKT are currently the undisputed best team in the SF2 Proleague. They went on a 23-set winning streak before being taken down by QSENN. In order to catch the players in their most candid moments, Lee Sora deliberately didn't inform them what time she would be visiting their hostel.

KT Rolster

By the time it came to KT Rolster's turn, Coach Lee had already seen the previous 3 Sookso Attacks and asked Lee Sora what kind of concept she was after this time. He pondered about whether the KT players should present a neat or "naked" appearance. In the end, he told Lee Sora not to tell his players what time she would be visiting them. lol

Unlike the previous 3 teams, KT's hostel is separate from their practice rooms.

Nice. What does that post-it note say in the IT bank photo section?

Looking forward to seeing what SKT's house looks like.
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

8 teams. Not nearly as big as SC1, but it's well supported by Kespa. It's a CJ E&M game after all.

SF2 is massively popular.
It's the most played game in PC Bangs ( by metrics, it's around 15%, BW is around 5% ) Aion - the most popular mmo in korea is only around 12%.

No wayyy... Not compared to the video footage from Artosis and Hyungjoon anyway... These photo's look a little like the environment T8 is having to deal with right now (or at least the photos of it from the beginning of the season).

Interesting pictures anyway! Looks like some of them 'dream to ride the white horse' as Rekrul eloquently once put it...
