Yeah. I found this surprising when I first realised too.. Of course, the stigma attached to being a gamer is nowhere as negative as in the West but it is STILL negative.
Although the interview is really great.. Boxer and Savior are on completely different levels of fame IMO. Lim Yo Hwan is almost a household name here... but Ma Jae Yoon?? outside of the SC circle.. I think very few people have heard of him..

Trust me, it got ALOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT better
Now it is accepted because so many large companies sponsor it and shit
With Woongjin, KTF, Samsung, SKT and CJ the image of SC got so much better.

So did Savior stop doing this 'path of night' stuff?
He is actually focused in destroying everyone in 2009?
