sigh. everyone below your post just starts talking about numbers. How the fuck do you begin to quantify Kim Carry's tears... dedication. That is all. I hope that SC2 can become like BW was but, even being an SC2 fan, to think that there is that level of dedication yet is just ignorant.

I usually don't see women in general being that invested in video games, but that could just be me heh. Either way I love the atmosphere the audience helped bring. 
It seems like Asian girls are more into gaming than girls in the US/NA, mainly due to cultural and lifestyle reasons I believe. Talking to some Chinese girls from Shanghai, and it seemed that gaming among girls was more prevalent than in NA, and many girls would play games like CS that you wouldn't expect girls to play in NA.
Anyways, great to see Boxer and Yellow have one more go at it right before the end.

It's the fact that some of those guys are actual celebrities in Korea.
Why did Bisu get taken? Partially because of his good looks.

2005. Let's see if SC2 can ever fill a stadium like that.
Plus, the audience last night may have been smaller than some sc2 events (although it didn't look like it), but the crowd was 100x better. Nobody is screaming or crying at western tournaments, thats for sure. The passion just isn't there. Some of these fans have been following BW for years and years.
