I guess that's a unique name for a website lol, I don't know if I would have called a clothing store Toss Girl, but what do I know.

Hope her online store does well.

Thanks for the lighthearted news

Yup, it's a strange name on it's own but tossgirl is quite famous (her daum cafe has 40,000+ members) so it's easy to remember for Koreans.

I never knew her sister was so pretty though.

Its not called Toss Girl the Starcraft Player who organized it is named Toss Girl (She ironically plays zerg)

It's like her brand I guess, so it makes sense to use it.

I remember a long time ago that her sister's pictures surfaced somewhere on these forums, can't find the thread. I agree, her sister's pretty.



Holy crap, that's a SC player? No way!? I never knew...

She's a Terran player btw

This is pretty sad to be honest. It's not that there is anything particularly wrong with fashion or modeling, but to basically see the full decline of a woman who stood for the somewhat feminist idea of women in ESPORTS to what is essentially the most stereotypical female stereotypical work there is... Especially when you consider that so many people told her she was just on STX for her looks etc, that her only power was the objectification of her body (even in her interviews people did not really comment much on her ability to interview, so much as her photogenic face)...

Not that you can blame her, it's a very sensible way to make money and take advantage of your well-known name. It is just that it is her giving up and fully giving in to the expectations of women in Korean society. She is not even like the powerful face behind the business, she is actually modeling for her own site ;p I hate to think of the chauvinists and easily influenced who will see this as proof of women's place in society. For someone who clearly wanted to do something else but failed, it's a terrible blow. You can almost see her parents sighing in relief that she's finally found the proper path of a woman ;p

well glgl.

I disagree. It's not like she's posing nude or something. She doesn't even pose in swimwear. It is smart for her to model for her own website because it's a good way to market the site. Being the only BW female progamer with a license does have its perks. It also helps that she has the looks as well. In the end, she has to pay the bills, and I don't see anything wrong with it.

Heavily simplified, one could look at this like 'her mind wasn't good enough to compete with men in BW, so now she has to make money off her looks.' As someone young women might have looked up to as a possibility to competing in stereotypically male areas, this is certainly a step backward. Differentiated from someone who just always wanted to own a fashion store (influenced by societal expectations or not). This is like an unhappy fall-back option. Not that we didn't know years ago TossGirl was a write off, but this is the embodiment of that failure. So again, I'm not saying that modeling is a dispicable or disgusting or shameful career, it's quite legitimate, but there is no doubt that she as a figure who attempted to enter a male domain is going to warrant special attention when she returns to stereotypically feminine means.

I think it's sad that there aren't more girls in progaming. Tossgirl, as far as I can see, is a rolemodel for female progamers because she showed that it's possible for girls to reach skills that can match that of boys. With this in mind, I agree with Chef's sentiment in that it's a little sad that she is now not only retired from the male dominated world of progaming, but has instead picked up a new career in the female dominated world of modeling and fashion.

Don't get me wrong, it's not sad for her sake; of course she should do whatever she wants to do, and I wish her the best of luck with it. If this is what she wants, she should go for it. Actually, sad is perhaps the wrong word to begin with. Maybe unfortunate is a better one. It's unfortunate for the world of progaming, from the perspective of gender equality, when a rolemodel like tossgirl conforms to a stereotype like this.

Having said that, she is indeed pretty, and I'm sure she'll be successful in her fashion and modeling career. <3

I believe that in S.Korean culture, if a girl gets married, it is culturally accepted that they can stay at home while the husband takes care of the financial care.

What kind of husband would conduct maltreatment on Tossgirl? So her life is relatively more peaceful now.

현재 서지수가 운영하는 여성의류 쇼핑몰 토스걸(www.tossgirl.co.kr)에는 동생인 서지승의 사진이 대부분이다. 동생마저도 영화와 드라마 스케줄 때문에 두 자매는 쇼핑몰 사업에 소홀한 상태다. 서지수는 뭐가 그리 바쁜 것인지, 근황부터 들어보기로 했다.

“쇼핑몰 사업을 하면서 큰 매력을 느끼지는 못했어요. 누구나 할 수 있는 사업이고 한계가 느껴졌죠. 어느 순간부터 이건 단순히 돈을 버는 일이지 내가 정말 좋아하는 일은 아니구나 싶었죠. 프로게이머를 했던 것도 여자로서 계속 도전하는 일이라서 좋았거든요. 뭔가 새로운 도전을 해보고 싶었던 차에 지금의 대표님을 만나서 사업을 시작하게 된 거에요.”

sister > tossgirl

But regarding tossgirl, the situation with tossgirl.co.kr was addressed in a previous interview (but it was fomos so no full translation allowed zz):

rough trans:
Tossgirl's female clothing/accessory online shopping mall tossgirl(tossgirl.co.kr) has mostly pictures of her younger sister Seo Ji Seung. Her sister is very preoccupied with movie and drama schedules so both sisters are negligent about the shopping mall business. We decided to ask what Tossgirl was so busy doing these days.

"While running the business, I wasn't really drawn by the idea of an online shopping mall. It's a business anyone can do and I felt its limitations. I came to realize this business makes me money but it wasn't what I truly enjoyed doing. I enjoyed being a female pro-gamer because it was something I could constantly challenge myself to. I wanted to try something new and that's when I met my current company representative and started the [perfume] business.

And then she goes on to talk about this perfume stuff she's been doing called N+1 (?) some kind of niche, domestic perfume (I know nothing about perfume).

The guy she married is two years younger than her so not oppa o_o but ya I heard he's super duper rich. Killer said that Tossgirl got a mini cooper as a white day present from him lololol

In the west it's still culturally accepted if woman stays at home, i.e. to raise children, while man works. Such women are not frowned upon, it's accepted as normal. It's also normal if woman works too.

No you may have misunderstood what I was trying to say. 20+ years ago (maybe more?) women were expected to be stay at home housewives. Sure you could work but your wages would probably be lower and company's would prefer not to hire women (extra costs maternity leaves and stuff like that?)
I live in the US and I've seen instances where the gender roles are reversed, the female of the house works and manages finances and the male stays at home. Sure it's still pretty uncommon but it exists. And yes its also normal for women to either choose to be housewives or working women.

First bold: Isn't that still true today though? Its not like that women have changed their biological habits or anything.

2nd on: How fucking emasculating is that....

My point: I think that its also due to our consumer culture that have developed over the years. Houses use to be 1/3 of the size here in Canada (I've visited some old homes in an open house), this means higher mortgages and more property taxes. There are also seem to have better water system, electricity bills, sewage system, phone bills, cellphone plans, internet plans, car insurance, gas bills to pay, and more taxes that goes into healthcare system (also meddling with other countries' affairs if y'all catch ma drift).

Its not like the LAAAAAAYDIES wants to work, no most of them prefer to sit back. But because of the advent of such culture impact, they are sort of forced to work in order to pay for the bills.

TLDR: There are just more shit to spend money on these days.
