I just do not think that I care much anymore. Let's get on with life. Jessica is drama. Good riddance she is gone from the scene.

After reading the transcripts of the Crank vs Jessica/Boxer conversation, I honesty feel for the first time bad for someone and that is Crank. Hopefully he will be alright and can get a good team and find good things in his life.

Jessica - sounds like a poor manager with good intentions, whom can't own up to her own mistakes and is a drama queen. I hope her career in e-sports is done forever. Her shortcomings as a manager led to the shortcomings of the players, in addition to MMA's attitude and the shady dealings of Manager Ryu, led to the demise of the team.

Crank - Depressed and immature; poor decisions led to his downfall. I almost feel sorry for him but hopefully he learns from this and grows up

MMA - Kinda comes off as an entitled prima donna. Being the best Terran in the world seemed to have went to his head. It's good to hear his side of things, as he gave some good insights as to how the players feel and were treated. The "Jessica caused boxer to quit" remark however, serves only to create more drama. He needs to cut his losses, stfu, and start winning again.

Boxer - Classy, tactful and professional through all of this. Love this guy.

Overall, it seems like poor communication, a lack of vulnerability-based trust, and a failure to recognize failures and shortcomings led to all this. They need someone more businesses-minded running teams like this. The players should never feel they can't go to their leaders with any concerns and feelings. In addition to this, it seems like the players were almost neglected to the point where everything boiled over.

i hate to generalize, but my friends have confided me in their relationship with korean girls, and i've seen some stuff firsthand. shit can get scary at times. freaking, late night stalking in front of the house for hours with headlights on. i've had one of my boys girlfriends show up to my workplace multiple times asking me about him. they can get psychotic.
i can relate with what boxer is going through

lmao I think Jessica is like Yoko Ono...just breaks good groups up with their presense...

Seriously Boxer and Jessica invested a lot of money to get great infrastructure.. Then they get a practice ban and spoiled players like MMA blame her for everything (incl. The shady stuff he did with coach ryu) while not keeping their part of the deal. jessica even exempts them from payment of any money and pays them back and she also agrees to annul the contract if wanted. He misses to annul the contract and blames her for it.........

Sorry i dont think anyone with a right mind can excuse this kind of behavior.

It needs to be stressed that jessica never had a esports career. She was an investor.

It is a very long , story.

And I didnt really know who is at fault... and I am not really sure if my understanding of the whole thing is correct...

I just finished reading the phone script.

From BoxeR point of view,
He thought everything were fine, until suddenly MMA, Ryung & Alicia wanting to leave?
And then he is angry with Crank, being captain but did not notify BoxeR about anything...any happening..
Then wanting to leave. Citing injury, then after leaving, wanting to join Foreign team.
So BoxeR & Jessica is very upset.

But Crank justify, he did speak with Cella about this, try to salvage the situation with alot effort.

And BoxeR & Jessica baffled, and realised it all started when Manager J told MMA about his sponser being Forward to BoxeR. Which is actually a false? Since Manager J is the one handling all the sponsorship.. according to Jessica.

So , is my understanding correct?

I don´t think that you can call 23/24 years old people "kids" to be honest. To my mind you are responsible for your own actions at this age. You aren´t a child who needs someone who gives you advice and leads you. A normal person should have enough experience and wisdom to do and decide things on his/her own at this age.

When I look at my mom and dad for example, with 24 they were already married for 4 years, working since they were 16 and they wanted kids of their own. I find it quite difficult to believe that they were still "kids" back then. I guess there are a lot more of these examples.

Maybe I don´t see the context here or the korean culture is different but to me, MMA and Crank aren´t "kids" anymore. They are grown up adults.

Choi: Whenever I talk to Jessica, the MMA problem comes up then I lose the confidence to talk.
Boxer: You have to endure that.
Choi: If I endure that this one time will this all end?
Boxer: Yeah, try it. This is a fight to the death. Do you not know her style?

What is this "fight to the death" bs? Isn't the smarter person supposed to let go first? Stubbornness is a b*tch.

Here you go. NO SALARY for Nestea or MVP - Skip to 44:30.

First of all, we will now pay players every year. This is a little "gift" to all the players who stayed and played with IM. Especially, NesTea and MVP will receive top-tier salary. In addition to this, all traveling fees as well as basic fundamental fees will be covered.
