The AfreecaTV and KCM LAN party in Thailand was a huge hit at our school! Holy moly. Look at how many kids showed up! And the cast by Mr. Kim, Mr. Jeon, and Mr. Park was absolutely amazing! It didn’t matter that they couldn’t understand a lick of what you said, my students could really see that you cared for them! Thank you for going the extra mile to make them feel welcome and valued. They had the biggest smiles whenever you called out their names. The casters and Lemmata truly understood that this event would be a special experience for the kids, and now a small part of their childhood is the same as ours. They were so happy today.

Yo TL, y'all made some children in Thailand really happy today. I’ll always remember reading through your comments and realizing that they all said the same thing. You were just happy to see kids getting the chance to play StarCraft with their friends, and you knew the impact it could have on them. You were happy to see others enjoy what you once enjoyed; it’s what StarCraft is about. Thanks for coming together and constantly reminding us of this. KCM and Afreeca heard you and made sure the students had a hell of a time! Lemmata also told me that TL is covering the pizzas. The pizzas were the highlight of the day, the children killed them like ravenous wolves. Just watch the video =)

Thanks TL <3

Special thanks to Lemmata. He is the one who put all this together and made it happen. In just five days. It was his idea and he simply did it from the goodness of his heart. He does not work for AfreecaTV or KCM, he is simply a StarCraft fan who wanted to share his love of the game with some students in Thailand. I don’t think the kids really understand what this took and what you did for them. But I am sure that they will remember today, and it will be because of you.

Enjoy the video and pictures! Happy #sc20!

Which one of them is the player named "P"? I remember he/she was the boss in that 4v4.

Such a great event! So happy to see the kids enjoying themselves! <3

This was just a fantastic event altogether. Great success and imo, what Starcraft is all about. Even more amazing with all that stuff that Afreeca provided.

Lemmata did a hell of an amazing job too putting it altogether and donating a lot of funds to it, much more than a lot of folks realize. TL did help fund the food, aka pizza.
