Found them really awkward. However this is Korea, South-Korea to be specific, they have a different taste for style I can imagine. I don't really mind it.. loved the T-ara player introductions tho' :')

Personally, this new style of putting make up on men makes me never want to share GSL or SC2 with anyone who isn't already a fan. Call me what you want, but where I come from there's only 2 types of people that wear make up. I don't like it.

I am very confused by this change, they're are trying to redefine the professional image of Code S without raw masculinity but star appeal instead.

Nestea-Huk-MC-MVP in makeup is going to become a meme fest...

The great scandal here is all the homophobia. The makeup is as far from gay as humanly possible. Gays have style and TL in the past have been very open and comfortable with it's sexuality. (<3 Inc and Nada etc). What's hilarious here is that they look ridiculously funny, they certainly don't look in any way gay.

It looks very effeminate for sure, I don't particularly like it, almost makes the players look like fools.

This is just straight up weird to me. I've never seen something similar to this done in Korean tournaments and I'm downright puzzled.

Also, does the GSL not realize how many Western fans they have? I know very little of Korean culture, but I'd be surprised if more than 30% of Western fans preferred this...I struggle to take the players seriously.

i get this might be cool to koreans jacked up on metrosexual effeminate whatever male kpop bands, but i wonder if gom realises how deeply displeasing it is for the foreigner viewers who make up the majority of their viewership.

but it will go away soon i'm sure, gom tends to move quite quickly past these weird -to put it mildly- ideas they get every once in a while
