What I realize after reading about pro-gamers and pro-gaming world is that I would probably prefer spending my life cleaning the floor than being a pro-gamer, even a successful one. Seems to be a really hard and somehow completely uninteresting life. Don't ban me plz, it's just my opinion, kekeke. | ||

My physical appearance has nothing to do with my photographic skills and I just don't get why anyone feels the need to request photos of me. I'm not pretty like MnM or lilsusie - I don't know if that might affect some people's judgements of me (if it does then I feel sad for them being so shallow.) I'm not here to be 'pretty' or to look good for people - I'm here to take the best photos I can and to bridge that gap between the Korean/Foreign scene. So, I'd kind of appreciate it if people stopped asking for photos - it's just not relevant to my work *at all.* THEN HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHO AM I SUPPOSED TO KIDNAP!?!?! joking aside, i have seen your face many times.. and im sure EVERYONE else have too (they just need to pay attention) BTW: im a big fan of your work.. and dont forget you must take me as your assistant when i go to korea =D | ||

In some respects I actually agree that the life of a progamer isn't all kittens and rainbows. They are separated from their families and friends for the majority of their time and large blocks of practising just don't suit everyone. I think those who have the motivation and dedication to follow such an unusual daily life learn to cope with the down sides of being progamers. | ||

I happen to be a photographer too.. :O but i dunno if TLers are up for meeting TLers like me in Korea, since I'm not really "active" and part of the "community" xD I've heard a lot of people are struggling to find work/keep work recently. It's times like these that I find it a shame that English teaching here isn't available to more people (you can only teach here if you come from certain countries and hold a University degree.) And of course we are - it's pretty often these days that us tl.netters in Seoul gather - recently more people have been around which is cool. | ||

I'm treated differently because I work with them behind the press line where fans are not allowed to go. I'm also known as someone who works freelance for IEG (who own eSTRO.) as well as for some other Korean sites and Teamliquid. I am the only foreigner and definitely the only foreign photographer - the only other foreigners working in esports here are Artosis, Tasteless and Puertorican and neither goes to events as often as I do. (Aside from Nick who commentates GOM, but even then he does not attend OGN events at all.) I also use the press room for non-SC events at OGN and I have used the press room in the past for SC events (but I found I actually prefer not to use it because it means you don't get to see the event itself much due to working on a laptop as well as photographing.) I've been to dinner after several finals with the main Korean journalists (from fomos/Dailyesports and Fifo.) so by now they know me and we always greet each other. None of them speak english (except Sora from Dailyesports and a lot of the Kespa people.) so there's not much communication beyond that unless someone is there to translate for me. It doesn't matter so much after over a year of working with the OGN and MBC crews that I am a foreigner - people have now seen how hard I work so I feel very at home at both venues - although I tend to focus exclusively upon OGN due to my personal dislike of the set up at LOOX. So, no - in answer to your question - my year of working my ass off means I'm definitely not just 'another person clicking away with a camera.' If I was I wouldn't have anywhere near the opportunities I have now such as special photoshoots with players and backstage access or press pass access to all finals. | ||
