So I was looking round tl looking for materials that I can use for my research paper and maybe some good articles/interviews that I can use to convince my professor to let me use TL as my primary source (it's not like I know how to understand Korean to use fomos.kr as my main source). Anyway I just realized that TL and Liquipedia does not have an article on the history of e-Sports or at least history of Professional StarCraft Gaming in South Korea that might be of trivial interest to newbies.

I know that this is not much of a big thing to actually put effort on but maybe just for the sake of having something? Because after all, this is a site dedicated to StarCraft news and a few pages on it's history might be good.


I'm an idiot...~_~

For the Guide Contest a while back, somebody submitted something that had a pretty decent section on history of Broodwar in Korea. I think his name began with a "c," got to go right now so can't help you search, sorry, maybe someone who's much better with the search function can help out.

Hmm, this is a very helpful guide but I need an elaboration and maybe a more in depth analysis on the 6th point.

As much as you enjoy e-sports I think your paper would be better off written on something else.. especially since you seem to be struggling on finding info.

Read Boxer's autobiography.
He talked about the beginning of Starcraft and how he saw like the "first" progaming Starcraft player and it sparked him, etc, etc.

I always facepalm when research paper articles = forum posts. If you consider mod edits it's peer reviewed. RIGHTTTT?

Ew for no Assem mention in the History of Progaming: "somewhere around 2003 Rekrul and Legionaire go to Korea" ~~ Leg had been there for awhile and Assem went for longer than Rek.

Well, can't really look and think of another reliable source than TL. It's not like progaming is a big thing in our country that people would write books about it.
