So this is a television review of the event from you, right? (It was you asking for which channel OGN was on before if I remember correctly.) The SCforAll.com crew is going/may already be there, but sadly I cannot go because of teaching commitments. I won't even be able to watch the stream/televised games - it's going to be quite the surprise..... the last PL finals I attended in Pusan was brilliant, but I nearly killed myself working that long in one go without a break.

I'm just waiting to photograph the OSL/MSL/Gom finals now within the next few weeks. Roll on the new season. Oh and as for this -

'Now: Watching this estro vs KT special forces and really how the fuk would e-sports survive without starcraft. it doesnt matter how good the grpahics are or even how the gameplay maybe. esports thrives in korea cuz of one reason: the common woman can follow the action without a headache.'

Not sure what you're trying to say with the last part since Korean female fans are actually far more educated about SC than a lot of their male counterparts. Especially those in the fanclub capacities.

The turn out for live events that are not SC - aka. FPS leagues like Sudden Attack's Super League, Special Force PL and other eSports leagues like DF and Kart Rider have steadily improved since I've been attending them (I.E. over the last year and 4 months.) Yes without SC Korean eSports would be a lot lower profile and far more niche than it already is, but you can't discount other eSports if you've never been to a live and seen the queues to get in/the reactions of the fans.

Earlier: SNSD singing songs at Pusan Beach (해운대), continuing the sailor motiff from their album with white sailor tops, red fuck-me shorts and red heels. Perhaps I am just old but too many pretty girls in one location kinda deadens the appeal, no matter how nice their legs or questionable their age (are they 18 yet?) may be. i don't know korean music too well though so i dont know the name of the songs they sang but they are the popular ones these days, something about a wish (소원) and something about sex ( i hope).

You have angered the K-pop gods. Sones will hunt you down no matter where you are and you will die a painful death.

오해하지마세요 ^_^ what i mean is this. starcraft in korea thrives because the game, including the pace, is easily accessible to everyone, most importantly women. and i'll write more on this later in another post, but the simple fact is that women legitimize... anything, and not just in korea, but in most modern economies. there's a reason why all the major sports in america play those sob stories of recovering retards or whatever, to appeal peripherally to the emotion of women. and it's especially important to attract women in korea as they dominate as consumers
