MBCGame to shut down? - Page 28

Keep any SC2 vs BW comments out of this thread. This is a thread about Brood War and Esports (Tekken Crash, Special Forces, etc) in general. If you discuss what this means for ESPORTS be sensitive about it.

Basically, the management is still discussing this. They haven't made a decision whether or not to proceed with this. Even if they decide to proceed, they still have to seek the approval of the Korean Communications Commission (govt body) if they want to change the gaming channel into a music channel.

I REALLY hope this is not going to actually end up happening.
For once though, I have to agree with TTT: This is just another reason to hate Kpop.
Happy Birthday by the way.

This would easily be the worst BW news ever, right? Only thing that even seems like it would come close was the match fixing scandal.

Really really really hope this doesn't happen, I popped my BW cherry watching MSL. This is depressing!

Maybe we're digging the grave, having the funeral and the wake a little prematurely. It sounds like they're seriously considering it but nothing is final yet. I hope all the public outcry will change their mind.

I hope fans are showing massive displeasure at this news and voicing it out (on the net or whatever outlet they use), so the decision is over turned, if not KCC fighting! Don't approve of their actions! Keep it alive!

I get the impression that that's why the MBC casters/commentators started dropping hints on twitter. They want a reaction from Korean esports fans.

I hate being the bearer of bad news, but it looks over from this.

Translations:

KCM (Commentator for MBC, reaverreaverreaver guy) : "This summer, a nightmare awaits us all..." I hope that it's only a tagline for a movie, but it seems to be reality.

Yooi: What does that mean Hyung? What's happening?

KCM: You know what it's about. Keep playing soccer, like you always have.

Yooi: It's over, isn't it...

KCM: Yep.

I've watched BW for nine years since I watched Junwi live at the COEX Mall back in 2002, when I was in middle school. Now nine years later, BW is a part of my life and it's crashing down around my ears.

Yeah, if MBCGame wanted reactions, they definitely got them.

Looks like the Korean fans want to run over to Mullaedong LOOX HERO Center and voice their protests! I hope that the public outcries are loud enough to convince the KCC to decline the changes!

Wow, I feel like I just had the wind knocked out of me. This is truly the beginning of the end of an era. I know that Broodwar has to make way for Starcraft 2 eventually but it still hurts.
