after watching ep.9 and then going backwards, i can see nal_ra and go.go. are great friends (probably not anymore since he is banned from e-sports) ep.9 i see gogo very annoying and stuff whiney etc... but in the past episodes they actually talked to each other a lot! Even though go.go is really whiny, i can't see nal_ra hating him

Anyways, Thanks for all the work on the show.


go.go was being the ass. Ra was just shutting him down.


A korean poster mentioned something about this already, I don't know about the validity of his statement but I'll like to open your eyes to a different viewpoint. The korean poster said this is how normal transactions between hyungs and juniors interact. Hyung meaning senior[m] in korean.

So how about nobody was being an ass, and it was normal. Sure you might deem him to be an ass in their relationship but that doesn't matter because you are viewing them through your culture standards. And the matter of fact is they aren't living in your culture.

If you are in S. Korea and living there atm and you can absolutely testify against this, then my apologies for my presumptuous attitude. But if not, stop pointing fingers.

this is true, even if you are just 1 year older, or if ur of higher rank in a company, u treat them like they're ur parents. or else u die.

That probe rush is just ridiculous...Seriously, Kang-Min is the reason i started playing toss..

And yeah, the end of episode 9 was so ironic, with gogo saying that he won't come back...i felt a little bad for gogo..

But only a little...

I wasn't calling him names or pointing fingers. I assume a cultural difference and simple stated my perception of the situation. And it seems very weird to me. Also the junior/senior doesn't explain it to me as Hoejja was also a junior.

HoeJJa is the 'polite' junior that all the seniors like and commend behind their backs.

go.go is more of the 'wiseass' junior that the seniors get together and jokingly swear about.

This. Hoejja was very respectful and restrained, cleaning up without being asked, being deferential in general, and just lovable overall. The kind of junior you just want to hug and buy food for and get fucked up with soju.

go.go was pushing the boundaries. For him to be constantly using the Hoejja reference to call rA by his first name was especially annoying, even to me (I'm Korean-American) and I'm usually lax about this stuff. But even having grown up in New York City for most of life, let me tell you, if my younger brother ever called me by my first name (especially in the taunting, joking tone that go.go used) he would get fucking owned =) But he doesn't. It's just too rude. And in return, I try to take care of him and look out for him as an older brother should.

This is the mentality that surrounds their interactions. I'm sure Nal_rA was quite annoyed at go.go for needling him like that, but what's he going to do? Scold him seriously on TV? All he could do was half-joking command him to stop.

what kind of scolding is warranted/realistic in korean culture for acting like gogo, a beating?

what if there are some guys who never respect elders, are they beaten till they follow line or shunned?

i didn't know calling your brother by his 1st name is kind of an insult
i don't mean to be intrusive or anything i just can't seem to understand
how are you meant to call your brother ?

i mean if your name is Jack Smith, then i guess family and friends call you Jack, while your office co-workers/employees call you mr. Smith.

if I am missing something here or it's just a cultural difference, please tell me so i know

is 1st name for koreans something they hate being called by ?

Includes Spoilers about OSL prelims!!
+ Show Spoiler +

Why did rA do what he did on those two matches? For some reason I got the feeling that he wanted/needed to lose those matches. Is it because of the army that forces him to stop playing, because this show must end soon, or what other explanation is there?

Him as a commentator would be the best to know that recalls in PvT haven't worked for ages, yet he tried and failed not once but at least 4 times on those two matches, suiciding his units on a minefield that he had seen with an observer seconds before.

It's not that he HAD to win, but it looks like his losses were completely staged, that he didn't even try to pull through. Why not the reavers he uses so well? Why not at least take advantage of the 1 rax expo that puma did on the first game?

Oh well.. just my thoughts..
