Interesting point. Would be interesting to really study the workschedule of a programer. I can't believe that incessant training can be more productive than a more moderate approach. In which case everyone should have time to have activities besides sc2. Because, without taking the context of the serious work hours pro gamers put in into account, for me, it would be expected that foreigners should learn korean (let alone, it will make their efforts in korea more productive since they can communicate more effectively).

Everyone is definitely picking up the simple words that are at the basis of communicating with each other but playing SC2 in Korea is not really comparable to the regular setting of getting a job in a foreign country. They're basically making 80+ hour weeks which leaves you pretty drained to put in actual class time to study the language. They pick up some stuff through gaming and the Koreans in the house but it's not really going make you fluent unless you studied it before you came like Jinro.

The Chinese nicknames are gosu. I wonder where muscle man comes from, I'm not exactly buff (yet! I have aspirations). Maybe compared to average progamer, I don't know.


Can you imagine what would have happend if incontrol made it to the ro64? lol

This is the most epic interview I have ever read on this site. I couldn't help but have a big stupid grin on my face the entire time.

"He's from Sweden, man. We have to fight polar bears on our way to school." -- Yusername

Jinro is such a badass. I'm so happy he was the first foreigner to get so deep especially after having trouble qualifying the first two times. He works hard and deserves all the success that comes his way.

They wouldn't have time to come up with a nickname, they'd be too busy building a bigger booth.

I just watched this series last night with a bunch of my buddies. It was so tense, we thought he was going to 3 - 0 the series but then when he went to game 5 we were actually all nervous for him lol. When we saw that reaper scout the Twilight Council we all cheered for him! :D
