MBCGame to shut down? - Page 36

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.

Isn't e-sport a national sport for Korea? If it still is, then the Gov will step in.


it's literally not a "national sport" in the sense of a "national anthem" or "national flower" or "national animal." the govt won't care...

Korea even put Flash in the G20 summit video. eSport is their honor and culture. I bet the government will do something if it really dies.

They did? Wow. I have a bit more hope in the KCC then. And you nailed it on the head. In Korea, eSports is not only "serious business", but also a part of Korean culture.


Well, it looks like that video proved my point even further. I'm impressed with it. Since the Korean government is involved in the G20 and maybe even a little with the production of that video, perhaps the KCC will really step it up if it comes down to them striking down MBC's foolish plans.

with only 1 tournament with a quarter of the prize money looks like people may be bothered to switch now

anyone who can petition or have direct contact with the companies in korea should make their voices heard... shutting down this station would just be horrible. If there is some problem with the profitability that can be fixed, there are thousands of fans still interested in this product.

I've been watching Pro BW since the beginning. I can tell you I have NO IDEA on the size of any BW prizes. We love this game because of what it is. Not how much $$$$$$ prizes that tournament has.

Broodwar still leaves a lot of hours in the day to be a Music TV channel. The Broodwar is liekely to bring in large audiance who might well leave the music on after the games finish. Surely its that expensive to at least run the pro-league games and be a music channel the rest of the time. Pleas edon't stop Broodwar completly MBC.

If it means that MBC will change to an E-sport/music channel and broadcast both then so be it imo.
