As part of the KT Sports online homepages KT Rolster has opened their own English language site. Right now it's just an introduction to the company and team with profiles and a schedule, but hopefully they will follow in CJ and We Made's footsteps and expand on this site in the future.
The same can be said for SKTelecom T1 who have also recently translated their sports sections into English. It is also not a homepage with interactive features yet. Also contains wonderful sentences that will make you smile (Especially if you're a T1 fan.)
[EDIT]
They also appear to have invented an awesome new word;
F*ck yeah, Sportainment!

WOwow AWESOME!!!
I am so gonna register!
|
hahaha SKT has all the coaches/players bloodtype. wtf?
|
it's common in asia to list the blood type. it has something to do that the blood type has something to do with your character and such, or am i wrong here ?
|
|
|
;O!
I hope they keep these sites updated!
thanks for sharing ^^
|
Haha I love how the translated into english sites turn out. Someone who knows korean should volunteer to clean up their grammar/vocab, just as long as original intent is upheld (although I imagine an english speaker who knows no korean could do that relatively well too).
|
Awesome thanks for the link!

You are correct. In asian cultures it is believed that blood type is correlated with personality type.
|
You should hint to them to start some sort of guestbook thing for the English site n_n;
|
Awesome! Cool to see at least some recognition of the foreign community.

Or preferably a forum so that korean netizens can laugh at us.
Also, your post count is almost over nine thousand. Just saying.

SKT has n.die_Soo under the Protoss column and Mong under the Zerg column.. Jesus I could hardly recognize them in those photos, especially soo ;;;
Rofl @ Invincible Terran, Revered Protoss, and Strongest Zerg ><
|
Why don't they just have some fanboys who actually know english to help them with grammar? I'm sure there are enough fo those.
|
They have a crapton of things to improve, though. Needs to be interactive in some way.

It's stupid, but sometimes.....I've been a fan of two totally different celebrities who were both born on Nov 3 and blood tybe O.
|
they forgot
NICKNAME
Awesome that they made the sites in english though
|
GREAT. this is a huge encouragement for the foreign scene imo.
|
|
|
About time - hopefully it will become a successful venture for them.
|
It's nice to see this development but they should have participated in the new GOM season if they cared that much about foreign fans.
|
Am I the only one who finds this funny? :D
|
Haha, so much Engrish...
"KT ROLSTER GAME TEAM, LEADING THE SOUND AND HEALTHY LEISURE CULTURE OF YOUTH"
"and the team is committed to be the team to communicate with fans by strengthening the fan service through the communication with fans."

Take from the SKT1 introduction page.
"Also, it was a happy season for us since we saw how you enjoyed the various spotaiment events such as Funky."
Funky? I think i missed out on that one.

Hell no, they must not change that! My support for KT Rolster as a team increased by 100% after reading that. And the analogy makes so much sense. XD
|
The Engrish on these sites is simply incredible. Also KT appears to have 2 Flashes, though one is named incorrectly ???
|
Woo, i can't wait to be provided with upgraded sportainments!
|
KTF's sportainment is so lol. I never knew Rolster ≈ Roller Coaster!
|
check out the weight of the second guy at the SF Team. This guy is fat...
|
Ahahaha! July ain't got nothing on that guy. Good find!
|
This is so awesome! I hope all of the teams open up english versions or their site.

Check out the roster, they have two By.Flash too.

I'm really happy about this. It's a sign that eSports in Korea are taking steps to incorporate a foreign audience

562 is how much master chief weighs, so it's major pwnage.

KT is clearly better as they have a basketball team

Kinda funny that both these teams turned down GOM S4, but yet feel the need to have English sites...
|
KT Lolster delivers yet again.
|
OMG OMG! Bisu and I share the same weight and almost exact same height!
EDIT: AND WE HAVE THE EXACT SAME BLOOD TYPE! ASDFSADFSADFASDF!
Well, I think, I'm O positive. He could be negative, but still!!!!@!!@$@#$!@#%$#%

Tempest's nickname is 'eating' xD
LOL one of the riflemen is nicknamed 'besieged dong'
|
They got some good nicknames... freeloading NSP_Sharp, trouble free Firefist
|
KT has a very cool site.
Simple, effective, yes eye-pleasing design.
Obviously content is missing on both pages =]
|
Awsome!!! I hope they open a shop on site!!!

I really need to open a business for Japanese and Korean companies to use.
They send me their Engrish stuff, for a small fee I send them back what they actually meant to say in English.
I'd make a fortune.

KT's freaking exhibition room O_O

Picture of Bisu on the T1 site is so handsome. ~~

There is so much to love about this.
Myths are made by Zerg!

Ok seriously, is the lack of a native english translator that huge in korea?
you'd think a professional site such as this would get an actual translator to help them make a presentable site 0_o.

I think it's lack of caring.

FUCK YEAH SPORTAINMENT
CJ had an english site first!!!!
|
I'd like to know something more interesting about the players than just their birthdate, blood-type and height/weight. 
|
Whats with some of KT's nicknames? Rofl...

In Asia that is all you need to know about a particular robotic model to assess its make, quality, durability, and characteristics.

what about their name?
|
Shouldn't we call ForGG Never_V and Luxury Practice? They are always using these names during their games and these are the names on the website.
|
Many progamers have multiple aliases; Never_V_ and Practice (among others like Berserker for Iris) were used in GOM, for example. The other names are historically more common and widely known so it makes sense to use them over others.

Their real name is largely optional and is probably an endearing name to the product so that it does not remain as simply a barcode and production lot number.

I don't know about the more common part, but the names just stick and nobody ever wants to change because that's just confusing, even if the player goes by the new name 100% of the time now (and has for a while)
eg. Kal ->Goojila, Casy -> AdamaS, Killer -> Baxter

From what I have read, it is a Japaneses invention of their uber-fascist period (30's-40's) where they were looking for as many possibility to classify people with ineist criterias (obviously with very heavy racism following, hardcore eugenism etc...)
Somehow, Asians have never managed to overcome this bullshit. Some people are considered as inferior because they don't have the good blood type, which is exactly as stupid as saying that someone is inferior because of the size of his big toe. You even have to give your blood type when you look for a job.
Obviously, it doesn't have any, any, any scientifical fact behind.

this is awesome
does anyone else find it amusing that kt has player's blood types on the page?
|
Wow nice! Though I find KT pages a bit annoying to browse. And they both should add some more info about players. Like wtf blood type is the most relevant bit of info? =D
|
Sportainment isn't a new word ;/
|
haha. "sportainment." so awesome.
|
You know what KT website needs?
Pictures
Non-Flash pictures.
At this rate, KT will be known as the "one-face team".
Edit: Also, a lot of the players are surprisingly tall. I assumed otherwise because they are probably getting less than recommended amount of time....
|
Just for the fun of it...
Poll: Which site is better?
(Vote): KT's English Site
(Vote): SKT1's English Site
(Vote): Kespa's English Site
(Vote): TL's English Site (Duh')

OMG OOV IS 191??!?! I THOUGHT HE WAS LIKE 170 SOMETHING!!!
