I think this gives a pretty good insight on the situation. Even when they're not playing, they're talking about the game. I wonder how they can get sleep like that :D I would be devising strategies in my sleep all the time.
Micro at its best is like an elegant dance between two people trying to achieve a similar end.

I can't watch this.. Is it only me that really fucking hates that style of program making? It's like one of those reality TV shows, America's top model or something. That's exactly the show that popped to my mind at 1:20 when Khaldor goes "Hey, everyone!" and that god-awful dance track starts playing >.< I did like most of the music though, at least up to 5 minutes when I stopped watching.

The interviews cut to a different perspective every 3 seconds and a different interviewee every 10 seconds. If it's not a different view of the person, we get even faster snapshots of some loosely related trophies and competition photos. That's my biggest gripe with this show I think, I can't concentrate on reading the translated text when the background switches color every so-and-so many seconds. And just concentrating on the topic and what's being said is difficult in general with that going on. Feels to me like they had too much material and too little space to jam it in, or maybe they just assume we're all high on energy drinks anyway so we won't care.

I've watched it already, and i really like it. The Gaming rooms looked really cool, and especially at Startale, you can see that they are really like a family.
#And nice to see Khaldor involved^^

by the way, is the 'House of Awesome' still up and running in Korea? Since the Liquid players living there retired, and HuK can now live in the EG house in Korea, I doubt it would be just SuperNova living there on his own :E

It'd be Huk, HerO and Supernova living there but HerO and HuK are living in the EG house right now. So not sure what happened to it. Maybe Supernova is just having the time of his life right now, throwing parties every day.

Finally had the time to watch all 3 parts, very worth it and this provided a lot of information about korean team houses.
I hope more of this kind of stuff is done in the future!

After watching those videos I would have to say there is a huge difference in why they are so skilled at the game Starcraft 2. It's because they put time and effort towards something they love to do. Even some of them had to convince there parents that it is worth it and they did show it was worth it.

It is a very good point on why they have team houses and why they are so good because of the practice environment they have set themselves up in while others outside of South Korea mostly still just practice from home and don't get very far and do fall off after awhile once they hit there prime because they don't have constant advice at there side and have to review replays on there own and have to see if they can spot there mistakes and correct them.

I believe if foreigners plan to win more is that they set themselves up like the Koreans have and they will be more successful in the game Starcraft 2 otherwise if they continue down the path of not having a team house which has been proven to be a very good way of improving yourself for Starcraft 2. Yes times will be hard with money and will accumulate debt but that's the cost of trying to be successful in E-Sports and securing yourself a sponsor that will make it easier to rise to the top.

Did anyone else notice that when LG-IM coach was being interviewed, there's a trophy in the background that looks like the MLG Providence 2011 trophy. As far as I know that was the only MLG there they made a trophy that looks like that and Leenock was the one that won it. You can see the trophy I'm talking about at the 5:36 mark. Did another tournament make an identical looking trophy?

Coach Kang has the pimpest fucking earring.

Great to see they're transparent with the money situation in these teams, with almost all sponsorship dollars said to be going to the players.

Imagine if failed teams like ApeX and mTw had that. IMAGINE.

The automatic captions are actually quite funny:

When I misred the title I was so very confused to what could possibly be so interesting about Korean treehouses...
