EPTJinro is also so cool of a human for working hard for that Code A spot instead of simply taking it. That's why he's one of my favorite foreign Terrans!

We'll see how it goes. Really hope you'll get it, a long time since we haven't a foreigner who get into code A/S without a special pass. | ||

I am not sure about that. The talent pool in Korean is pretty big and I am sure the next Bomber/DRG/MMA is lurking somewhere in Code B. With the KSL (IPL Team League as well), we are getting more exposure to these players (players like Yonghwa, finale, StC, Creator, etc). They are all very capable of taking games off code S players. Granted, the format is different from GSL (more preparation for specific builds) and the prize pool is different. But the talent/skills is there. It would be interesting to see a tournament where everyone in Code A and Code S have to qualify. I wonder out of all 56 (32 code S and 24 code A) players, how many could requalify. I think it would be a majority but would not be surprise if around 20 did not. I guess we will see when the WCG 2011 Korean qualifiers come around (Only Top 8 were seeded last year). | ||

I would say that there could well be more Code A/S level players in Code B, but I think it's safe to say there's nobody on the level of DRG/MMA stuck in Code B. Especially with all the new leagues in Korea (KSL, ESL etc) making it obvious how good some people really are. So far, people like TheStC obviously should be in Code A/S, but I doubt there are any hidden bonjwas. | ||

Also it would be awesome if LastShadow qualified because he is having a hard time supporting himself in Korea without a team. | ||
