During the last match of the B.net Attack (guest: Hwasin) Hwasin used a nuke rush strategy to own his opponent. The angered Battle.net user typed "섹스섹스보지털" which translates to "SexSexPussyHair", before disconnecting from the game.
Meanwhile MBC Co. recieved massive complaints, because the show was a live-broadcast (obviously). The B.net Attack PD explained that because of the time-constraint, they had not taken the usual precautions of contacting the user before starting the game, and thus was not aware of the user's identity. MBC announced that they will add necessary precautions to prevent this from happening again.
Meanwhile Hwasin has been the center of attention for the past few days. Through miscommunication and falty information, mis-lead information had said Hwasin himself cursed on Television, and STX has had to work hard to rectify the situation. Hwasin has decided to cancel most of his guest appearances, such as the ILoveStar program for OGN (which is the equivalent to Bnet-Attack by MBC).
His last and only appearance during the break will be the 7-set match for MBC All-star SKINS match against Stork.
"sexsexpussyhair" - nothing much for foreigners but for korean live TV game is very unappropriate and insulting and respectless what can we do - foos r all over

If you want carlo you must first summon him. oov sucks and only won WCG because WCG really sucks. WCG sucks so much that a player as sucky as oov who sucks can win, despite sucking.

And now we play the waiting game.
You forgot to mention how horribly imbalanced the WCG maps were. Also, I think all korean gamers suck, they have no heart for this game.

Wowww haha. What a ridiculous thing to say. Is this "pussy" just a phonetic translation of the English word into Korean? Korean profanity sure is goofy.

sex is a phonetic translation
pussy and hair are not
but seriously, doing something like this on tv is so childish and retarded

So why do people on this tl.net tell people to go on west to try to play against these guys if MBC needs to contact them before hand?
You actually just have to tell your phone number/name/something like that inside the game lobby room normally, you don't have to volunteer yourself like a week before or anything

No heart for this game ? ... wtfzor ... i think when boxer cried after losing to oov ... was more tragic then the titanic movie )

It's something like "poji" isn't it? With a Korean accent that sounds like it's as close as you can get, using hangul. I've taken one Korean class so I'm still figuring the alphabet out ... but I guess I shouldn't worry about profanities!
If you ask me, Hwassin and the Bnet Attack television program got really unlucky. Usually that sort of trash talk is only directed at female gamers. Poor guys... I feel bad for them. They haven't built up the same emotional wall that female gamers have... must've been devastating.

This is just so incredibly silly when you're used to the dutch tv standards where anything is acceptable, including porn (though it must be aired after 11 or 12 iirc).
so...... is it bad manner to nuke rush nubs on tv? this is why hwasin is getting the shaft?
else how is it his fault? He's suppose to demand the tv station impose delays when airing to prevent this? This is so illogical. And they should consider getting to know the english lyrics of the songs they play as, thats more influential than this can ever be -__-
The commentators were pretty professional IMO how they reacted, once the disconnection started, they knew he was being bm and the camera man directly knew what was going on and turned it off or w/e, very professional.

Hwasin shoulda Alt-tabbed. Do you know how classy that woulda been? "The BM opponent said bad things, so I minimized starcraft as fast as I could to avoid it showing on tv"

Something like you shouldn't be doing this (to the guy who disc)

Not sorry because something is gonna happen to him. Just how would you feel if you were him having fun and than someone does that to you. It would piss you off thats why hwasin probably decided to cancel his appearance in ilovestar.Someone might do the same thing again. And it said on op somehow there were rumors that he cursed back and he didnt. Hes getting blame for something he never did.

As in, "next time I play you, I'm going to SSP yooh!"
At first I thought this was a sarcastic joke, but then I searched Google and noticed that some people actually are indeed calling it the SSB build, and calling Hwasin the "SSB Terran" rofl

I thought USA had pretty strict censorship or precautions against swearing on television...
Depends on the time of day and what program. I'm sure Europe is way less strict, but it's sometimes pretty surprising what you can get away with on U.S. television.
.... how can this be MBC's fault, unless they put a 10s detail on video signal and have some guy sit there 24/7 to monitor offensive materials, its just stupid and not applicable..
This reminds me of the soccer game where Sweden played Denmark and a danish guy ran out and hit the ref. He became the most hated man in his entire country because of it, its just too bad they didn't have the identity of this guy :3 I don't care about sex or pubic hairs, but dischack drives me crazy.

in the usa you can usually get away with almost any bad word besides fuck and shit, but they are pretty strict with nudity
I'm watching b.net attack with Best right now and it struck me odd that none of the players said GG before quitting... So I guess maybe they've disabled ingame text somehow? Seems like an intelligent solution.
I can't really say why - I must be AWFULLY bored - but I think I just skimmed through like two hundred comments in the clip's comment section on youtube. I guess I'm fascinated by the amount of absurd responses from ignorant people and general attention-whores.
Im not sure if this is mentioned but when i watched B.net Attack from Mind, Mind had to ignored the players. Im guessing from now on they will have to ignore the players

I was kinda surprised they didn't do that from the beginning. It was only a matter of time
Wow Hwasin's zerg is terrible. You'd think a master of TvZ would have a decent idea of ZvT as well..but I suppose the two have different ways of approaching things.
And that ZvP..I bet they cut that out because Hwasin got destroyed hard by those sairs early on.
Poor guy must be feeling like shit losing those games as zerg and the one he wins as terran he gets dropped and gets ssp'd.
