Whoever posted those handpicked links trying to "point out" that this a "cultural" problem in Korea should realize that although women definitely have their own set of issues, especially as related to appearance and workplace expectations in Korea, in general they're treated extremely well nowadays.

Disregarding sea unable to handle his liquor, a lot of those cultural issues are rooted firmly in our parents generation and beyond.

The order of the blurred gifs paints a different picture than unblurred gifs posted on another site. In the blurred gifs Sea makes his advances, gets rejected and then hits her. In the unblurred sequence he hits her and then the hugging starts. Also note that some time has passed between the hitting and the hugging (in one gif the background girl is sitting closer to them, in another she is almost out of frame).

With all that said, I still don't condone what Sea did. But I can't help but feel that one website tries to paint a narrative where Sea was rejected and lashes out in anger.

One more thing: is there no full video of the event so we can see the entire sequence? On twitch they have "clips" that users can make. Why is the only thing we have of this event just a bunch of separate gifs the order of which changes from website to website?

This thread was hard to read. I personally find it pretty sickening that most people's primary objection to the event stems from the fact that she is a woman.

Honestly, he deserves the ban regardless of who sitting next to him. Losing your cool like that and assaulting another person should never be acceptable regardless of the circumstances and regardless of who the affected party is.

On a side note, the lesson that comes of this will almost certainly be the wrong one: Don't film, stream or take pictures of your disgusting personal life.

Most public figures don't allow you to have phones or cameras if you're out with them, it doesn't seem like a steep learning curve, but I guess + Show Spoiler +

Jesus, Sea, this is so infantile.
He deserves a good old slap rather than a ban. But I guess this is how they educate you in Korea.

Didn't really seem that he punched here that hard, though violence is always wrong. imo what he does in his free time shouldn't have anything to do with ASL. For all I care he could be a serial killer, I only care about his starcraft play...
However, since he streamed it and afreeca is running the league I do understand the decision to ban him. I really don't get why people feel like sharing everything nowadays. I'd never stream myself drinking with my friends...

He offended a female and maybe gave her a bruise. Obviously something that
reprehensible requires jailtime and maybe severing his hand.

God so much righteous indignation in here. I agree with harassment but that is hardly worthy of being called "assault" or "violence". Lots of overreaction and virtue signalling in my opinion.

Good news for killer!
Bad news for yumbosung fans.
Or rather, ex-fans.
A build is not a guess, an estimation or a hunch, a feeling, or a foolish intuition. A build is a dependable, unwavering, unarguably accurate, portrayer of your ambition.

Because these people make their living from streaming while you are probably some white-collar worker. Working in the entertainment industry is a different lifestyle.

Oh believe me I do get that. I just figured they'd be smart enough to not stream themselves taking drugs, that's all.

That depends how you define violence - Oxfords gives us this...

violence
NOUN

1Behaviour involving physical force intended to hurt,
damage,
or kill someone or something.

‘violence erupted in protest marches’

‘domestic violence against women’

‘the fear of physical violence’

‘screen violence’

More example sentencesSynonyms

In my counseling work I can assure you, that what we saw, that is for most people very much considered and experienced as violent...

Inexcusable behavior. I don't know how he'll bounce back from this in his Starcraft career. He's not the most composed player either to be able to block the negative backlash.

I guess it's easier to just join the army then come back after that.
