Its not worth the 1,000 airfare to just go to korea for the pro gaming scenes. You have to travel, check out all of the different cities, natural parks, temple/shrines, restaurants, shopping malls, etc.
PC bangs suck cause so many people use the map hack program on the pc. 18 noms..

Anyway, I'm going to be there all day basically, dropped off in the morning and be alone [ I guess. ] From what I've heard Mega Studio is next to Coex mall? Is that where I want to go in the afternoon?
I heard 'no match on this Friday at mega studio coz of OSL round of 8 matches on this Saturday at Jamsil Stadium' Will you go there anyway? Mega studio is in Coex-mall, next movie complex 'Megabox'. Mega studio is the corner, next to,PS2 room(I don't know the shop's name exactly, anyway, the place is related to PS2.
OMFG ASDF STUPID FUCK FUCK FUCK~!
Well I'm going anyway because I'm doing anything else. >=( What will I do all day, is there enough there to last about 8 hours or more?
Edit: I can't go to Jamsil stadium either on Saturday, because I'm going with a cousin and her friends to an amusement park. Just for curiousity's sake where is Jamsil stadium? And what tmie are matches, since I can always watch on TV. =^ O^=

1000? We payed like $850 USD or so [ I'm pretty sure ] and well I've been to Korea 4-5 times before so I've already seen the other stuff. Pretty boring but still nice to see. And because this is the first time I've been here after SC explosion, what else is there to do besides Starcraft?
Btw, isn't it c8 noms? Idk why everyone keeps saying 18181818
18 = Eel pahl which doesn't mean anything, c8 = Shee pahl which means shit, fuck, whatever.

Ship ha da is an ancient verb meaning 'to fuck.'

if ur going to lotte world(and you prolly are), jamsil is really close, same number 2 green line i think. like 2 stops away or smoething(5min)
|
I'm going to Everland - _-;;
People tell me it's kids place. Oh well, it'll be alright.
I've been to Lotte world 3 times before though, it's great. I saw where Jamsil is on the subway thing on the way here to Coex. I'm in the Xbox game area right now. PC use is expensive as fuck though. It's 2000 won for just an hour. Everywhere else was just 1000 won or less. T_T

2000 won is about 1.60 i think

Yeah, something like that. And 2000 won instead of 1000 won is a big difference when you get used to the 1000.

Omfg, after I finished computer use at the Xbox place I played some Capcom vs SNK 2 on one of the many many many Xboxes they had set up with a bunch of other games. So anyway, after that There was a desk in the middle of the room and I was like, omfg that looks so similar to the desks that they 1v1 on in VODs.
So I while I'm playing Capcom vs SNK I see out of the corner of my eye that they are setting up two computers, so I'm like ^_^_^_^_____^_^_^_^ Maybe they are setting up Starcraft after all.
I get a really really early seat so I sit behind one of the comps so I am in plain view of the mouse and keyboard. Turns out it's warcraft. Oh well, I'll still take it. Better than watching nothing. The guy who was on the comp in front of me was Kenshin_WeRRa [ Yes I have good eyesight ] and he was on Samsung Kahn. The thing is that I couldn't even watch the match begin because my mom picked me up and we had to go eat with this other family that just so happened to be in Korea on vacation [ From U.S. ] too. @_@
I still have yet to go to a live event, but I have two more Fridays so I look forward to one, and to seeing Lim Yo Hwan in person, even from a distance ^_^
Thanks for reading.
Edit: For future reference, 1000 won is like 89 cents USD or something. Somewhere around that.

HaHa, Finally you visit Sejoong Game World. To see Boxer in person, go to the same place next Tuesday evening. Coz MBC Team League will start there, the openning match is SK T1 VS Hanbit Stars.

OMFG THANK YOU!!!! Hey will you go there so I can give you big hug and a present? Lolz, really thanks alot ^ O^ I will tell you all how it goes.
How do you go about getting an autograph? 
Edit: Do you know exactly what time? I want to get there 30 min to and hour earlier [ Is that early enough ] so I get seat behind Boxer. [ If he plays ]
|
7:00 pm but it will be very difficult taking your seat. I heard some fans waiting 5~10hours to see gamers(not games-_-).
|
Well I might just take the subway there in the morning and stay there all day, so I'll have plenty of time to wait, and kids have to go to school, I don't ^_^. Unless they skip school they can't wait more than three hours or so, as I understand doesn't school end around 4:00-5:00 then Hagwon? Then again adults might go.
Oh well, the bare minimum I want is at least a seat near the front and be able to see boxer, although getting an autograph would be uber amazing.
|
My ansewer is maybe late..anyway, a hour earlier is not early enough. Don't forget how popular Boxer and his team mates are. Get there 2 or 3 hours earlier if you want to sit behind players. If you arrive there around 7, you must stand up.
The matche begins at 7:00 PM (same as other leagues) as I know.
