Before I went to Korea 3 months ago, I always ALWAYS wanted to meet Boxer in person, for my age it was like one of my life goals, I was only 9-10 when I saw his first plays on Game-Q on a ghetto ass computer and ever since then he has inspired me, not only through starcraft but because of the amazing dedication he has. I used to go to Korea every summer for 4 summers straight, and the very last time I went, the seeds of starcraft were planted. When I got back to America I was introduced to Starcraft and omg I fell in love with this game, and when my cousins were like ' Omg have you heard of Eem Yo Hwan?!? ' and they showed me his amazing plays I was in fucking shock. I watched him climb up all the way through the competition and tear through his opponents. And just 3 months ago, I was excited as BALLS to get to fucking Korea, because my family had financial issues I didn't continue my Korean vacation every summer so I hadn't been there in 5 years. And now I was fully aware of Starcraft's prestige. As soon as I got on the plane all I could think about was ' Wow maybe I can meet Boxer/Yellow/Garimto/Other players and maybe even get a autograph and a picture. The first match I was able to attend was Boxer vs Nal_Rock in the past challenge league [ I think that was it ] and I'm even in that VOD, in the best seat possible I went 3 hours early and the only reason I didn't get 1st row is because that's reserved for his fan club. He left promptly after the match and I soon realized that, that was going to happen every time and I'd NEVER get to meet with him. But that all changed when the Tucson league came about and the match between SKT1 and Hanbit began. I realized my terror as the teams came in because I was sitting on the Hanbit side - _-v But I said fuck it, and as soon as Boxer was about to leave to go buy a drink or something I stopped him and said ' Hi I'm from America, can I get your autograph? ' He smiled and said sure, what's your name? I still have that paper in the Boxer DVD box and I look at it from time to time. I've followed him pretty well and I can tell you he is a humble guy only trying to do his best in the one thing in life he has found that is FUN and earns him money while meeting great people. My previous thoughts about him were only further affirmed as I watched him play in real life, not only in VODs and his grand amount of concentration. Boxer never lost his greatness, he will always be great. | ||
