It just seems weird they would give 27k - 85k they earn to their parents. Esp at their age. Wondering just what custom it is or whatever. It seems pretty ridiculous to me, is it normal to give all your earnings to parents in korea? No, it is about respect. it's not uncommon for children to start taking care of their parents when they can, even if their parents are still working. | ||

Flash gives all his winnings to his parents (pretty dumb for a genius), but why do older players like cool/rainbow give all their winnings to their parents? Seems kind of bad considering how hard it will be to turn a lot of this pro gaming experience into money later. Probably because a lot of Asians live by Confucian ideals. And Confucian teachings are big on children taking care of their parents when they're older. Especially the eldest son is expected to live with the parents even after marriage. Luckily my parents are Americanized and are already trying to kick me out of the house. | ||

He did so much better than any other zerg out there and tbh idra's showing was pretty poor this tourney didn't live up to the hype around him at all. You remember people saying that oGsTop threw his match because of poor play? I'm not saying Cool won because the Terrans were shit, and obviously he is the best zerg in the world, but at the same time you have to acknowledge that Rainbows play was quite poor in those games. | ||

I'm pretty sure Rainbow could have played better, but Cool played really well and I'm glad he won | ||

When you get older you take care of your parents. That's why Koreans live with their parents and look down upon ppl who move out. Because they are neglecting their duty to take care of their parents. It's kinda opposite in western culture, where ppl stay in their house so they can be taken care of. That was good. We are going to see a lot of Cool's builds on Bnet from today. I MEAN A LOT Cool pretty much shut ppl who says zerg has no options. It's true a zerg player has no options if you choose to. | ||
