최근 박완규는 "스타리그와 프로게이머들에게 도움을 주고 싶다"며 재능기부 형태로 곡을 기증했다. 온게임넷은 이를 활용하여 스타리그 레전드 선수들과 16강 선수들이 출연한 오프닝 타이틀을 제작했다.
Park Wan Kyu stated, "I want to help both the Starcraft league and progamers" and he donated the song as 'talent donation.' Ongamenet used the song to produce a music video featuring the Legends (including Boxer, Reach and Yellow) and winners of RO32.
A little fact about Park Wan Kyu: Most of you might not know who this singer is, but he is indeed one of Korea's greatest singers performing in many genres of music. PWK was a member in Boohwal which is also one of Korea's most popular band. + Show Spoiler +
During the recent dark era of BW, Park Wan Kyu even offered to sponsor out of his pocket to start a tournament. He has been an avid fan of Brood War, and his favorite gamer is Bisu.
i know that the video/song is upbeat tempo and i don't understand korean so i didn't understand the lyrics. but i felt sad watching the video esp. when it showed the past bw games.
nevertheless, kudos to this guy! he's really into bw and a huge bisu fan... too bad bisu's not in the video.
In all seriousness, at first, I didn't like the new intro to this season of OSL. IMO, Ever 2007 and Bacchus 2010 had intros that were waaay more badass.
But after seeing how the song was dedicated to BW by BW's biggest fan during BW's darkest period, I really appreciate this intro now. It doesn't hype me up with fancy graphics, editing, or pure badassery. Rather, it hypes me up with an emotional attachment to the league in these tumultuous times in Korean esports.

It's hard to believe that bw as we know it is coming to an end. We had amazing times and that song & video did osl a great tribute. Park Wan Kyu & BW Fighting Edit: Jaedong & Bisu deserved to be in this video. They would have looked good next to Reach & Yellow

if i remember correctly, i think it was YellOw he was really good friends with?
This song really lets one feel that the end of professional broodwar in korea is near and it also makes me hope they have an incredibly epic ceremony planned for the finals of this osl so that broodwar can come to the end it deserves! (Not like its done in Proleague)
Who are the three players standing in a triangle? Does it have some kind of a symbolical meaning? I think I recognize 2/3 but since I'm just a SC2 noob...

Okay the bottom line is that StarCraft contains 3 races: the Protoss, Terran and Zerg. The intro showed reps from all 3 races. And since we are reaching towards the closure of BW progaming. They brought back the old reps for each of the races. BoxeR = Emperor of Terran, YellOw = Storm Zerg, and Reach = The Protoss Hero. So yes, this is definitely symbolical.
