Hello, This is Manager and Coach of Team Incredible Miracle, DongHoon Kang. It is a pleasure to meet you.
Team IM's Nestea, Mvp and YongHwa will be going to Germany Cologne on the 14th. They will be participating at the upcoming Gamescom on the 15th. We will start with the 15th of the IEM. LG Electronics will do many events together. If you want to meet us come to the LG booth. Team Shirts and Team Towel will be given out on a first come first serve basis. As well as enjoy the games, autographs, and phto time with players. Meet you in Germany Cologne!!
Thanks for the info IM coach. Hopefully Seed can get back into top form for future events and come out next time. Many foreigners are big-time protoss fangirls.
Arrr... I purposely decided not to come because of the mediocre IEM tournament lineup. It's too late to change the plans now and I'm kicking myself for my bad decision!
It is amazing from IM that they are coming to the event with such great players.
Foooooooooooooooooock. If I knew this earlier, I would have gotten off days to get to Cologne. Seeing Nestea in person just for once ... JUST FOCKING ONCE!! that would be great
If someone gets me a IM shirt or towel I will pay for shipping and money other lovely things. I am dead serious, Nestea is my hero and would do anything for just some merch from the event.

You have people across the atlantic ocean begging for a glimpse of Nestea, and you are unsure whether or not you should go? Ifnot for the starcraft, do it for the profit you will make off of selling those towels online :D

But MVP is actually making an appearance!? Time to show Taeja who really is the Terran master!
Also, why no SeeD? I feel like he's a better overall Toss than Yonghwa. Hmmmm.
They are giving Seed a break because he's on an insane schedule, he played WCS Korea round 1 against Coca, beat him. Went to IPL TAC finals in america and won it for his team, flew back to Korea and beat Gumiho in round 2 less than 2 days later.
IM promoting their players in the foreign scene is awesome... for the fans, the players, their sponsors and the team. It'll help Korean players to gain more deserved love, keep it up <3
Hey Manager, would it be possible to sell team gear internationally at some point? I wanna buy an IM baseball hat - Nestea and MVP always wear them at events, and I would feel like such a boss with one of these.
Holy shit. And I decided to go on vacation on Friday. I was thinking all the time if I should go to gamescom or not and decided against it. Now I regret that decision...
Wish I could be there.. Huge fan of Nestea and IM overall; what I would pay for a signed photo with them, heck even unsigned... Anyone selling those towels/t-shirts is welcome to contact me as well ^^
Thanks for telling this to the TL community IM Coach! That was amazing of you... Wish I could be in germany, but I know that would be literally impossible unless I hi-jacked a leer jet. Which most likely isn't going to happen, so everyone in Germany make sure to get your T shirts and IM towels asap when u get there! I want a team IM towel come to think of it... :-]

Idk what you're talking about man. He was IM's strongest player at Ipltac3 and that was 2 days ago
It was a pleasure seeing your team two days ago in SF, and I hope I'll be seeing some faces more in international tournaments. IMFirst for example, I really liked his play.

Seed on far left, Happy on far right. Unless I'm going blind haha. Figures that's the remainder of their poster crew. Seed's a champion. Happy was a semi finalist.
I really like that the coach actually came here and posted this himself. While it would have gotten through the grapevine eventually (immediately, thanks reddit), it's cool to have them actually come here and talk to us ^^
Thanks for the info Coach Kang. :D Wish you guys could come to Australia, would love to meet yas and buy stuff. Guess I'll have to settle for coming to Korea.

I'd even pay for the t-shirt. This is why it should be on Amazon!
We love you out in the foreigner scene. Sending out your players to our events is an amazing thing to do, and you should continue doing it!
Signed,

Signed.
More IM players in foreign events please! Heck, send out some of your B team sometime. I always like seeing that one player get a break out tournament like Lucky, Symbol and Squirtle.
Huh, before really thinking about it and reading the OP I thought to myself, "Why?". Sure IEM is a nice tournament, but it seemed strange for them to be sending all these big boys there when there are plenty of larger tournaments. Then I read the OP and it clicked, this is where IEM being apart of a bigger convention really helps them, when these stacked teams like IM have sponsors that are connected to the convention itself.
Best of luck to the IM players and I hope the players and everyone that gets to meet them have a great time. =D
Hope I can find time to check out the tournament myself.
perhaps I see them sunday :D I'm thinking of going to gamescom then, but my schedule for the weekend is already pretty full, so a bit of rest would be nice aswell

They are ebay for about 60 bucks, I bought a white one in the hopes of one day getting it signed by the team
I wear it with my CJ Entus pants because I am a starcraft whore!
Some facts about the event: Budi and Etienne from Game One were the host. Budi as an IM fan himself was quite hyped to meet them. At first Budi interviewed Kang Dong Hoon (IM Coach), Mvp, Nestea and Yonghwa. Questions were about pro gamer in general/daily schedule etc. After that Budi played against Nestea (TvZ on Shauras Plateau). Nestea went for a "slow" roach baneling aggression with a proxy hatch at Budi's natural. ^^ ezpz. (Caster were Etienne and HomerJ.) The last 20 minutes Yonghwa and Mvp played a showmatch on Cloud Kingdom. Because it was a show match they did nearly everything possible...nukes, mothership, carriers. It was quite funny. In the end Yonghwa with his air protoss play won against Mvp, who tried to nuke units and bases the last 5 minutes in the game. (Casters were Budi and HomerJ.) The event ended with the "fight" for autographs.
Wow, thank you for taking the time to post it on the (foreign) forums like this. It really make the team feel more acessible - like, we are in a conversation, and next door (on another page of the forums) the ACTUAL IM TEAM has posts! It feels like we can reach you and talk to you ~ very exciting!
Please make more announcements with this method, it is direct to the fans, and feels comfortable and familiar.

That's interesting, didn't know Fenix was still with them. Do you have any news about him or the interviews?

do you know where to find the interviews?
I don't think Game One recorded it, but HomerJ's camera man was there. So perhaps there is a vod somewhere at HomerJ's (quite confusing) website...
