YA!! glad to see you found your thread on TL and shared the experience with us. I think we all can live a bit vicariously through you since you got to do what we all want to do (act a fool on national television at a professional SC:BW match)

props to you mate!

Lol this is awesome. I wish there were more people like you.
We need to show them that foreigners love watching bw as well, and that the progamers have fans all over the world.
Every time they're interviewed by foreigners it always goes like "-do you know you have many fans from out of korea ? -Oh what, I didnt know that"

Big props to Daniel. :D

Nonono I agree Sometimes they just suddenly put you on TV. But sometimes you know it's coming because the camera man puts the camera right on your or super bright lights turn on. I expect this is what happened when you were chanting song byun goo.

Anyways, I'm a huge fan. Nice to see you found this thread!

Hot damn... we got him to post... I wonder who tipped him off about the thread.
Hopefully you get other opportunities to meet stork, it sounds like your trip was amazing.

Cheers

Good job daniel! <3

I always found it heartwarming that korean idols, not only starcraft, but also signers make the time to meet their fans. Teams got fandays, kpop group got fanmeetings.
It really shows that they enjoy you being their fan and makes it all worth more.

Daniel, all the haters are just jealous, wishing they could be in Seoul cheering on their heroes like you did.

I still think you're the spitting image of Rick Moranis though.

Dear TL!

Yes, it's me - I am the guy!

First, I want to say a big THX to every TL-member out there. To be honest, I thought that this community would trash my appearances to death, but this thread and the various messages show that there IS a lot of love here on TL, even for a semi decent strange looking guy from Vienna, Austria. This thread should prove this forever, I really enjoyed reading ur messages, I never thought that this would happen - so propz to all of u guys - THX to all of ya, I wish you also the best, I declare u guys as my friends too! U guys here on TL made me, I hope u enjoyed it, I'm sorry if I may have offended you but tbh, I think most ppl here enjoy a western guy acting crazy over there.

Let me just make it clear that I wasn't intending to troll nor was this thingy a big show for me, it just showed my passion for the korean SC scene and my support for Stork and Samsung Khan for years, now i could finally get to Korea - sadly I am back in Austria so no more games with me. I partly have to disagree with Chill, sadly, some of my cheering cards weren't even shown in the mbc studio nor were there any lights at me when I was there - I had another message to january and I even wrote a message to a girl - those moments were not captured because the director/cameraman decided to do so - they can decline everything if they want to do so. Sometimes I even was suprised to see me so I acted goofy lil wayne style - I'm sorry . Khan fans are really upset because of the fact that fans like KT get more support, I even saw the director passing a cup of coffee to like one of the biggest female (T)Flash groupies! (she made like 1000 pictures of him while he played vs light) - while many Khan fans weren't even shown on other days. Also there were not many fans when the games started, mbc has to do something about this and some of my sightings may be to blame for this. Maybe free drinks could change this I thought?!

To prove my support for stork, I brought a present for him from Austria and I think he really enjoyed it (he thought I m from Australia first - its hard for Koreans to spell it..). I even have a picture of him on my fridge since he won a starleague so yes - I m a big fan but pls don't blame me. I met KT/MBC and Samsung Players and they were really friendly, even when some of them may have lost the game. Because of my crazy OSL appearance, Stork came out of the vip area just for me, I received a sponsor price money of 50.000 Won for snacks for the best ceremony and OGN officials gave me the poster stork signed, I was so flattered, I really felt love & support by the koreans for the stranger so THX to all of them - there's this huge OSL promo poster in my Austrian appartement signed by him - I always wanted something like this!

I want to point out 2 ppl who really supported me when I visited the games:

braq aka Harry - the asian guy with the glasses u see next to me often. He speaks english very well and is like one of the biggest stork fans so we instantly connected, he is really a good guy. He waited 5 hours (!!!) for the OSL games and just gave me a few of his front seats, without him u wouldn't even see me, so many ppl were waiting for the games. He also has contact to (T)firebathero , they even played a couple of games and share a nickname.

The second one is the girl who was with me at the OSL, her name is So Yeun. Even though she doesn't like electronics nor did she even know about SC in korea at all, she came with me - supported me and she told me that she really had a wonderful time at the games. TBH, she is like the cutest and nicest girl on this planet, her signs and cheerings speak for it...I may be in love, lol - I had tears in my eyes when I had to leave

Here are a few shots to prove it, THX to all of ya! (if ya guys want to know more/interview/pm i don't know - I m busy for a few days but later - I can answer every question. I have a lot more to tell about my experiences and can help if u guys want to go there)

The gift:

Propz to you TL, Thank you!


There's the icing on the cake. You would make a great mascot.

Just thought he looked a bit like the Hulk with the Song Byung Goo + hand movement... You can probably come up with something better.
