Why are you doing Chinese players' name in English? And in a terribly wrong way*?

I know you did translate Legend's name directly into Korean, right?

*For example, Jim's name should be Cao Jinhui, not nonsensical JinHui Cao.

Even Has should be Ke Yu-feng, or less formally, Ke Yu Feng, not Yu Feng Ke.

Nevertheless, SSL S1 botched Jim's name, but I remember they correct the mistake by doing it it Korean (just like Legend in SPL) when it came to MacSed in S2. So I should wait and see.

No. None of the Chinese players in Prime or Sbenu was given the right name.

Well, if they were really gonna use the "correct" name they would put it in the original Chinese characters...after all, they don't romanize the Korean players' names
But I do agree that if they're gonna stick with romanizing all foreign players' names, they should at least bother to do it correctly
