Lol Idra. Ok I have an opinion that is not going to be recieved well by others once again so here it goes but I think it needs to be said. First let me say Nony I was blown away by your second at courage and really really thought that you were going to go places and it is sad to see such a promising career cut short. I now will get to the bad part. I am kidna disappointed/ annoyed that ANOTHER foriegner has left after doing nothing in in televised matches or by staying there for an extended time period.

I don't know why people in Korea continue to waste their money and time sending over foriegner prospects if we keep wasting time and money by leaving before any training and fully take place and be cemented in our thoughts. Don't get me wrong, I am sure Nony has a good reason for leaving but I really just am annoyed that people can flip flop on their "dream" so quickly. It bothers me alot because this bodes horribly for all foriegners and I cannot see another foriegner ever getting accepted to a pro team to play starcraft unless they reside in China. I feel that players say ok yeah I am going to have to train hard and it will suck but I can do it, but no one ever can tough it out over there. You have to fully grasp you wont see friends or family for month or maybe years.... your personal life will basically be limited to nothing outside of Korea. I am in no way saying that these are small sacrafices but I am just saying one needs to be aware of these before signing up for such a serious task. It just really bothers me because us "foriegners" are seen as a group and when a few represent us and all do the same actions, it reflects poorly upon us all. I know that it is only one person going over there, you, but what people who go to live in Korea need to realize, their actions reflect upon us all.

Nutshell: Sad Nonys promising and illustrius carreer is cut short and wish him the best, but also disappointed that all foriegners will soon be looked upon as quitters.

Edit: Also this gives me a ton more appreciation for what Idra has to endure and after I met him at WCG I was a fan but now I wish him nothing but the best and domination in Korea.

Too bad nony had to leave though

Idra alienated europeans by several of his comments about gosia, and also some of the stuff that was interepreted wrong (His comment about students taking time off to do worse things then follow a dream like idra is doing, his example was traveling around europe)

idra what do you think about the practice debate, do koreans practice beyond the point of benefit or is the 10 hours per day necessary?

some people thrive in it, some would do better with more time to relax.
the korean system is overly rigid in that it tries to fit everyone into the one method, but its infinitely better than the laid back approach of foreigners.

It's OK, we still have 3 Media's in Korea, proving we are in fact the best foreign SC team. Easily.
