1. Kangwon Land (Casino Corporation owned by government) is considering to have new progame team.
Kim Jung Bo, a boss of future business promotion team of Kangwon Land said they have interest in making new progame team, at the press time in the IEF conference held at Taebaek city.
He said the investigation on progame team is in progress and it's optimistic.
He added at current stage it's just considering stage but next year it will be decided at the counsil and the detailed plan will be announced.
(wtf... next year? -_-;; )
DCinside community is wondering if they will pick up Silver whose nickname is Gambler zerg or Tazza. 
...Or Shine[Name] whose nickname is Kaiji (for his similar look)
2. MBCgame coach Ha tae gi and Sea[Shield] will be invite to Proleague final broadcast as commentators (at MBCgame channel)
3. The prize money for winner of PL final is known to be 80,000,000won (a bit more than 80,000 USD). At the PL final, boxer, oov, midas, july, upmagic, tossgirl, hwasin will have autograph meeting with fans. Some game team will open booth and sell something related to their team(maybe T-shirts or cap? I dunno)
4. Nada met a boy with muscle dystrophy(wtf is this disease?  )
The boy wants to be a game maker and likes Nada so much.

Muscular dystrophy is a fatal degenerative disease. The child is born normal but his muscles grow weaker with age. So the baby learns to crawl, learns to walk etc normally. By 7 or so they cannot walk long distances. By 10 they start to become wheelchair bound. By 12 or so they lose their shoulders. 14 for the elbows. My friends wrists were able to operate his chair to his death at 18 but they were constantly exercised by the use of a wheelchair. Spinal muscles degenerate to the point that the spine must be re-inforced with steel plates, in his case at age 16. Eventually either the heart gives out or the tounge chokes them to death. 20 would be an exceptionally old age. It's particularly cruel in that the child has the memories of running, playing, being normal as his body slowly kills him. There is no cure.
It does however only effect men. It's recessive in women who can be carriers and therefore with the invention of genetic screening it should die away within our lifetime. Basically a woman can screen eggs before choosing one without it, or at the least, choosing a girl who will only be a carrier. It's not legal yet but I'd expect it to become legal given that when you reject the male egg it wouldn't be "zomg killing a baby" but rather sparing them.
Edit: that boy will never be a game maker.

thanks pfvoid!
hmm, interesting about a casino wanting to start an e-sports team. what's the minimum gambling age in korea? i'm surprised because it seems most e-sports fans are pretty young, whereas casinos i've seen usually seem to attract older crowds.

Wow that just blows. Sometimes it amazes me how much humankind has progressed in so many fields but we just can't seem to break that barrier of knowledge to cure these really fatal diseases (like cancer, etc., and this).
Oh well, at least meeting nada must of been awesome for him, it's good to dream I guess. -_-

I think the most ironic thing is that medicine can't even cure the common cold, never mind muscular dystrophy. Annoys me as hell.

the common cold is a virus that is never the same as the last time you caught it its kind of a different scenario

Poor kid, Nada is a good person for doing that.
