It's good that they finally have jackets. It's far too cold to be wearing just that thin shirt.
Jaedong is kind of... ridiculously popular. As in, I couldn't get anywhere near him because he was swarmed by 30 or 40 fangirls all trying to stuff his hands with gifts. He couldn't even hold them in the end and kept dropping things.
Unfortunately, the fangirls blocked pretty much the entire pathway, so I couldn't find Sea and Baby either
11.12.11
Second Intra-house tournament, 1st place: Jaedong. 2nd place: Sea. Coach Joo has rewarded 5 random Korean fans who guessed the right placing with movie tickets.
Competition within the team is fierce. The previous tournament was won by Killer, with 22 wins from 32 games played. The second placed player in the previous tournament had 21 wins and 1st to 5th placed players were separated by only 1-2 wins between each position.
Update 10.12.11
It's Tyson's birthday today and the team held a small celebration party for him in the hostel. The players are also in the midst of their second intra-house tournament. The results will be released later.

I didn't know that there would be fan meeting after the games but saw people waiting so I waited. Thanks to the nice Korean fans, they even ask the players for me to get photos with them. Here're some photos I took at the games/fan meetings.
According to Coach Han, in the Team 8 "family-tree", the following pairs of players regard each other as contemporaries (of the same age). From the oldest group to the youngest group:
Jaehoon and Jaedong Sea and Tyson Killer and Sang Baby, Speed and Ryul2
Yesterday, the players also took a short break and they ate mandu (dumplings) at night.
Update 6.12.11
Pictures from today's fan-meeting. Tyson's birthday is on Saturday so some of his fans gave him presents today. The players may also be getting their winter jackets and keyboard bags this week.
Update 4.12.11
No results from the Sea v Killer off-race match yet. Why? Because the number of games keep increasing. At first it was supposed to be just one game, then it became a Bo5, now it's a Bo7. Will it finally end today??
The team also played some off-race games yesterday. Sea as zerg played Killer as protoss. Who do you think won that game? The answer will be revealed later today.
Update 1.12.11
The players took a break yesterday. It's back to practicing today.
Update 29.11.11
Pictures from the Team 8 fan-meeting today. Only Jaedong pics so far.
Fan pictures from today's match. The players look so sad. Team 8 haven't been given any winter jackets yet, so they wore their own.
Update 24.11.11
Before he went to bed, Killer tweeted this picture of Tyson and Baby with the comment: "My handsome and cute roommates ㅋㅋㅋ".
Actually Tyson looks funny in this picture. Reminds me of when Tyson used to room with Hyun at MBC. Laughter and gags every day.
Update 23.11.11
Coach Han tweeted this picture. He pointed out that in the background Tyson is surfing the internet during a break, looking at a picture of a female celebrity.
So the results from the psychological tests Coach Joo had his players go through came out last week. They were tested on things like concentration levels, psychological readiness, confidence etc. Apparently Jaedong's results were similar to Boxer's and Sea's scores showed a similar pattern to oov's.
I don't quite get the purpose of these tests (comparing them to his old SKT team doesn't make sense to me either), unless he's playing mind games with Coach Park, but there you go.
Coach Joo at one end of the room The row to his right side, from nearest to furthest away from him: Sang, Baby, Ryul2, Jaehoon, Killer. The row to his left side, from nearest to furthest: Speed, Sea, Jaedong, Coach Han, Tyson.
Update 20.11.11
Some sports gear that Jaedong's fan sent him as gifts: + Show Spoiler +
This week, Team 8 will play both an evaluation match against STX Soul and also a game of football against them.
Update 12.11.11
Apparently Jaehoon and Tyson took one of Shark's hood-tees and then Jaehoon gave it to Killer. Shark found out after he saw Killer wearing it in a picture taken by Fomos yesterday. lol
Shark to Killer: "Jun Oh yah, the hood-tee that you're wearing in the picture from the Fomos interview .. it's mine, so why is it there?? ^^"
Killer to Shark: "ㅋㅋㅋㅋheok that's yours hyung? Jaehoon hyung gave it to me~ puhahaha"
Sea to Shark: "ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋKim Jaehoon Park Subeom......"
Shark to Sea: "I was surprised..... whatㅋㅋ"
Shark to Killer: ""Kim Jaehoon what's up with you!!!!!!!ㅋㅋ About 10 years ago my aunt bought that for me from the USㅋㅋ wear it well^^"
According to Coach Joo, Killer won the team's first intra-house tournament.
The date for Team 8's opening match is not confirmed yet:
Random fan to Coach Han: "Team 8's opening match is on the 19th, is that correct?" Coach Han: "No, the date has yet to be confirmed, it could also be on the 26th."
Update 10.11.11
Coach Joo tweeted that the team's opening match is against SKT on the opening day and their second match is against KT on Tuesday. O.O He says for official confirmation, wait for the release of the full schedule for further details.
--------------------------------------------------- Director Joo Hoon tweeted a picture of the Dream Team a couple hours ago. Sea is not in the picture because he went to see a dermatologist. The picture was taken after they had their lunch.
Standing, left to right: Tyson, Jaehoon, Jaedong, Coach Han, Speed, Ryul2, Sang.
Bottom: Killer and Baby.
These pictures were taken by Tyson last Friday. All the pictures were taken in front of the Dream Team hostel in Itaewon, Yongsan-gu.

Coach Han
Some interesting things about the team
09.11.11
Coach Han: "It's 3am in the morning and Bo Sung [Sea] has gone to sleep... the [rest of the] players haven't gone to sleep." "Ah Bo Sung is totally an early-morning person, once it's past 12am, he's into sleep mode ㅎ."

Coach Han looks pretty badass, I'm still trying to wrap my head around them all being on the same team. It's kind of weird seeing them all together. Love the pictures, the area they live in looks kinda nice too
man... I wish I can stand in the middle of road with both of my arms spread out like tyson in that kind of setting . I will feel Victorious.........if i was able to do that .
Can't for next season's LeeSsangRok. Jaedong's new practice partners with Flash's condition back at 100% ultimate. Bringing us possibly the sickest ZvT game(s) ever witnessed.

I wonder, whether lack of competition and practice for couple of months will be reflected in gameplay, especially as concerns members of disbanded teams.

One of the MBC writers suggested HOF (Hero Oz Fox), but pronounced as "hope" in Korean, since the "f" is pronounced a bit like "p" in Korean.

Wow, Jaedong reminds me so much of Bill Hicks in that picture, I seriously had to do a double take when I saw him! Really suave looking Tyrant for sure.
Thanks for the update Ryo! Very much appreciated as always
I am #1 Jaehoon fan. Jaehoon will be the next big thing that kicks BW back in to full gear! I swear it will happen! He just needs some practice on those recalls

I take it that heok heok = PLEASE , PLEASE
I didn't see the original post but if it's the heok I'm thinking of (헉), then it's more of an expression. It's something you say when you're speechless.. More of a sound than anything with meaning.. I guess KIND OF like "whoa"? Not really though. One of those things that can't be directly translated..

I don't know, the relatively high chance of scoring 2 losses right off the bat as a team makes me a little ... "urggg" and yea, losing to SKT and KT is likely enough, for any team.

I want this new team to kick-ass. I'll still be rooting for KT vs everyone else, but this team is just too full of awesomeness.
So Team 8 played intra-house warm-up matches today. The overall winner (with the most wins) was a zerg player. It wasn't an overwhelming victory, difference of only 1 win. Coach Joo will reveal the name of the player tomorrow.

okay. I'm not betting anything though, since Coach Joo said it was a diff of only 1 win.
It'd be too obvious if it was jaedong, and JDs ZvZ lately... (especially compared to killer).. I don't know. However, say if Jaedong lost to Killer, Killer would be two up compared to Jaedong, and It'd make sense if Jaedong won against say Sea, and Killer didn't.
However, my math may be terribly off considering I just woke up and its 6:44 AM and I feel like shit.

Its pretty clear JD is such a boss that he purposely failed in intra house practice matches to boost morale. When the real games start there is no doubt there will only be destruction for the poor souls that stand in his way.

There's a reason Killer was ranked within 1 of JD in the last 2 PRs. He is serious business. Everytime I see a "Dream Team with Jaedong, Sea, Baby" I always slightly facepalm because Killer is really doing better than both Sea and Baby lately.

Possibly. Joo Hoon didn't specify any dates. Anyhow, I hope they release the official schedule soon. Meanwhile, I will wait patiently by watching Hiya play/chat.
Jaehoon and Tyson took one of Shark's hood-tees and then Jaehoon gave it to Killer. Shark finds out after he sees Killer wearing it in a picture taken by Fomos yesterday. lol
Shark to Killer: "Jun Oh yah, the hood-tee that you're wearing in the picture from the Fomos interview .. it's mine, so why is it there?? ^^"
Killer to Shark: "ㅋㅋㅋㅋheok that's yours hyung? Jaehoon hyung gave it to me~ puhahaha"
Sea to Shark: "ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋKim Jaehoon Park Subeom......"
Shark to Sea: "I was surprised..... whatㅋㅋ"
Shark to Killer: "Kim Jaehoon what's up with you!!!!!!!ㅋㅋ About 10 years ago my aunt bought that for me from the USㅋㅋwear it well^^"

Jaehoon and Tyson so naughty. Poor Shark and Sea, his skin look good. His t-shirt !!!!
Ryo, thanks for the updates.
I guess Sea went to the dermatologist in preparation for the media visit.
Oh you're right! I was thinking "wow that hairstyle makes him look so refreshed, and even younger" But it's the skin haha. I hope he feels as good as he looks.

I agree with this.
Thanks for the updates Ryo! Good to see Team 8 doing well, they'll be jumping right into the thick of things with their first matches against KT and SKT and I'll be cheering for them! I believe!
And man, I don't think I could ever get into that part of Korean culture. I used to tutor a Korean high school girl in English, and it just weirded me out that she didn't have a bedroom with a bed. She'd just unfold a mat at night and sleep on the floor of her study. I've gotta have an always-present bouncy bed with fluffy pillows and stuffed animals and all that shizz :|
So happy watch Tyson play and win today. and thank you because remind me about his birthday this Saturday in the update. Can't believe he is same age with sea and jaedong.
I've just come back from Korea and while I was there, I went to the vs KT and vs Ace game. I didn't know that there would be fan meeting after the games but saw people waiting so I waited. Thanks to the nice Korean fans, they even ask the players for me to get photos with them. Here're some photos I took at the games/fan meetings.

Definitely he improved so much.Im so glad he playing with amazing players like jd/sea.
Hes still jailbait. JD on the other hand.. mmmmmmmmmmmm
Haha jk, but yeah I agree. His play has improved so much! He was always great at the game (his vulture harassment drops were insane!!) and his multi tasking was off the hook. I just hope he can stay consistent with his new practice partners.
It's good that they finally have jackets. It's far too cold to be wearing just that thin shirt.
Jaedong is kind of... ridiculously popular. As in, I couldn't get anywhere near him because he was swarmed by 30 or 40 fangirls all trying to stuff his hands with gifts. He couldn't even hold them in the end and kept dropping things.
Unfortunately, the fangirls blocked pretty much the entire pathway, so I couldn't find Sea and Baby either
It's just Round 1, don't lose faith guys! New coaching team, new environment, the players need some time to get used to it, but when that happens...beware SKT, your 1st place won't last long!
It's amazing how much stuff the fans are giving to the players. Are there no events, maybe once a a year, that allow players and fans to be involved is some fun activities for the day?
