This isn't about if he is a good pro currently, but the fame he once had, which is why Blizzard paid him a fuck ton for this  . Good move to get the idols of SCBW to endorse an inferior product...You couldn't resist to make that last comment, now could you? | ||

Now that he is on EG and he is really bad, I don't know. It is noteworthy that among the TBLS, Flash often had a little bit less fans than the other three, even when he was dominating. | ||

 Also leveling up and exploding units on very high must be an important issue for jaedong. We need a translation, at least a rough one  | ||

Now, if you're talking about how popular he is in Korea, then I have no clue. Maybe go back and watch some of those FvJD finals we could see from the audience though. | ||

Frequent polls here on TL and before the KeSPA yearly awards thingy. But don't get me wrong, he has legions of fans though, just not as much as you would have expected given how much he dominated imo and compared to the other top players. (I agree with you on the inferior product part btw.) | ||

(I agree with you on the inferior product part btw.) Oh, ok. I never watched the awards, and just can't really remember anything about OSL/MSL audiences other than there were a ton of KR cheering. Nah I mean in the end they both have relative fan bases it really wouldn't matter who had more to them. Both dominating figures in late meta game starcraft. Interesting though that JD more popular in KR and Flash probably more popular foreign. Maybe there is something in personality you can't really determine without knowing language/culture. (there are people who disagree with us?????!!!!???!!!) lol Edit: Oh shit polls here must mean foreign fans are the ones voting! hmm very interesting. Polls taken pre or post sc2? Cuz many zerg fanboys nowadays. | ||

Jeadong is far from being "really bad" but that's the internet opinions for ya. And i think him being on EG makes him even more populair. Fans of his Broodwar career will mostly keep rooting for him no matter what team he joins + now he get's EG fans added to that atleast + more exposure. OT: Cute though way over the top, that does make it look rather funny. | ||

Also do many people use youtube in Korea? I know Naver dominates in terms of search engines there so I would imagine they also have their own popular youtube-clone. | ||
