He's coming across incredibly genuine and honest to a fault, a lot of props to him and a thank you to JP for setting this up so quickly.

I think you're misunderstanding it, or at least not fully. He said it wasn't really that they were mean to him, but rather a cultural problem with things like them perceiving him not joining their scheduled dinners as him not willing to eat with them. Shit happens with cultural difference and a pretty big language barrier. Though this goes pretty far, and could be perceived as a dick move.

I'm at the 15min mark only but Naniwa feel like the kind of guy with a pretty strong mental. Going throught all that stuff.
He had some bad actions and was looking for money a lot of the time, but still. Not everyone can go throught all of that and still have the will to practice and do what you wanted to do.

Its pretty insulting to not join/refuse invites to dinner/lunch tables. I don't fault Naniwa because I know its not like that in the west but in Asian or Muslim cultures its a huge sign of disrespect to the host.

It works both ways and a lot of people from Western culture would rather eat when they're hungry rather than reinforce that he'll eat whenever MVP does.

No Naniwa is the problem. There are plenty of foreigners that practice in Korean team houses, have you ever heard of anything like the ENTIRE TEAM ignoring the player for an entire week? One player disliking someone is one thing but ENTIRE TEAM ignoring you is another. Naniwa is the problem.

straight up. if dude wants to make korea his 2nd home and train with the best he should learn some manners and how to adapt to a different culture.

besides, this is only 1 side of the story.

I don't think you can prove it that way. You would need to look at other foreign players who were at the MVP house to prove something.

Wow, I thought Naniwa didn't want to do this? Interesting either way.

Also, is this talk suppose to be the announcement that Naniwa was/is suppose to make after him leaving Quantic? Or was this interview done before he left?

Interesting interview.

Naniwa comes across pretty much exactly as I expected.
Did you ever say Yes to a single joy?
