Effort standing on top of ShangHai radio tower in the OSL Ro36 intro pretty much confirms it already.

I hope this will prove to be some good advertisement for SC, the stage is big and finding possible investors/sponsors at the World Expo would most likely allow SC to survive SC2 very easily...

Wow... this could be very big.

I'm sure the Korean folk will be sad about this, but this is such an unprecedented gesture.

They should have had a few random pro league games in china seems dumb to randomly decide to host the osl finals there.

I agree. It does seem really strange to just arbitrarily move the location of a domestic-league finals.

This is something you'd expect only after some kind of integration.

I'm currently trying to find some reliable Korean source to ask to at the moment.

If I get an answer, I will report back ASAP.

actually it could be a scheme by the korean air to sell tickets for starcraft fans to go to other countries to watch. not only they earn money off starcraft but airplane tickets too

I might be a bit off topic but I want to take Japanese boyband agent Johnny's as an example....It's all about business.

Johnny's have sent several popular boybands to hold concerts and fan meetings in Taiwan for years. How do they handle with domestic fans? They partner with tour agencies to form tour groups purely made up of loyal (plus rich) fans. Fans have to pay ridicilous amount of money to sign up for the tour compared to a normal 3 or 5-day trip to Taiawn. But they are willing to because some exclusive fan services are included in the tour package - separate meeting with boyband members, first served at signature meeting, front seats at concerts, etc..

I don't know either OGN or Korean Air has gone this far. But I won't be surpised if they finally bring the OSL final to Shanghai with an additional 737 or 747, full packed with crazy fangirls (or fanboys).
No more SKT1, it's SKP2.

My personal take is that anything other than a straight-up denial leans in favor of supporting this as fact.

logistically impossible as teams would have to fly in and out on a five-day a week schedule.

Agree. Especially because that rumor could make thousands of korean fans angry, OGN would definitely deny it straight-up if it wasn't true.

The only question that remains is if there has been a leak among OGN staff about this, how come it was published on chinese websites before korean blogs ? I assume the person responsible for the bookings of the Orient Tower spread the rumor.
