I don't know about rudeness or what their wishes regarding the spotlight were. All I know is it would be awesome to show them they have a huge foreign fan base. From the interviews it seems like a lot of korean players don't realize the size of their foreigner following.

I find it funny that Bisu's zipper is pulled down a bit low and his jacket's collar is a bit popped. Meanwhile, Fantasy's zipper is zipped up at a more modest level and his jacket's collar is nicely folded.

Jaedong looks like a boss in that black jacket. Enough said.

Omg, I must get that jacket Jaedong was wearing... It's a shame that they didn't get much attention

I agree, it would have been awesome if they did show them. At the same, people on these boards would no doubt have seen it as an offensive PR trick, "luring" BW stars to Blizzcon and "exploiting" them to promote GSL and SC2 "against their will!". Trust me.

I gave Bisu a new in box Logitech mini optical soccer ball mouse and he totally did the :O Bisu face. He was like "for me??" and kept staring at it. :D I think he was both really surprised and happy. Fantasy was there too. I shook both of their hands and got a pic!

Saw jaedong as he walked past me and smiled at me when i called out ZOMG Jaedong during the GSL Finals.

Chased down Bisu and Fantasy as they were walking away, and while their lady tourguide rushed them away, i managed to get a high five from both instead of a photo. woo!

I feel sad for Jaedong. I bet he would have loved to be still wearing the Oz uniform.

So, as I understand it, they were just invited to hang out- is there a chance that they can be convinced to do a showmatch =D? (I mean, you can even ask them flat out if they'll do a fun match with one of you, that would make me happy)

I think that Jaedong said that he was happy he didn't have to play any show matches or what not; happy just being invited with his friends to enjoy a gaming event. However, the motives for Blizzard inviting these four seem to be somewhat shaky. On the one hand they may have simply invited these players to interact with the few BW fans that will be there and at least acknowledge that they still support BW. Then on the other hand they may be trying to show them how big SC2 overseas, the motivation for which is obvious. Either way its sad to hear that the most talented gamers at Blizzcon are not getting as much attention as they deserve
