thankfully Azubu's contribution to the LOL scene in Korea has ended last season. It won't be dead. Not sure what will happen to TPA/TPS tho.

Korean Government (IRS?) is investigating CJ group for tax avoidance on seperate case. If AZUBU is involved in it, things might get uglier as CJ owns OGN(ongamenet) and sponsors CJ Frost/Blaze, but I doubt it :/ I see no reason for Kim to cooperate with CJ after parting ways with CJ's vice-president.

It's not close to the "fixes" that have been made of some eSport sponsors to fuck over consumers.

At least this guy is supporting eSport and haven't killed or raped someone.


How naive.

LoL isn't the only thing that will suffer if CJ gets into trouble.

hilarious that you say that supporting a community isn't important if it allows someone to support your community. Talk about egoism and stupidity at its finest.
Zest fanboy.

i think you are confusing tax avoidance and tax evasion/fraud.

How connected are Azubu with this? I didn't really understand, is there any direct link to anything SC2 related or is it just business on a whole other end?

People who manage Azubu are crooks, thats a fact cuz of their law issues in different countries. And yes you can say that it's sc related cuz they sponsor sc2 team ;p

Edit:

For example one of the smaller things the Korean documents did not contain.
There were 2 german Azubu companies, both led by the CEO "Silverio Park". (Also known as In, Sung, Park)

- Azubu Europe AG
- Azubu Interactive (Recently renamed to Gapielon GMBH)

One of the former/current CEO's of Azubu interactive is a person called; 'Ilir Kusari'.
This name is incredibly rare, and has an incredibly low amount of searches on the internet.

- http://bit.ly/Zwdp3w
Linking "Ilir Kusari" to Azubu Interactive.

- http://bit.ly/13epvxa
On this website it's stated that a individual named "Ilir Kusari" has been arrested on fraud and theft of large sums of money, at big companies. (Notice the age and nationality of Ilir)

-- Did you also notice that his birthdate has been changed to XX.XX.XXXX thanks to privacy issues?

Step 1: Go to https://www.handelsregister.de/
Step 2: Search for Azubu
Step 3: Click the "VÖ" behind Gapielon
Step 4: Click on the announcement of 11-4
Step 5: Check Birthdate/Crosscheck it with his age during the arrest
Step 6: Make your own conclusions.

It's all here. We're just waiting for someone to translate the articles.

some good ones to translate are:

http://www.newstomato.com/ReadNews.aspx?no=370460
http://news.nate.com/view/20130606n12148

don't try google translate you know it sucks for korean->english


LOL! omfg... That's going to a bitch to translate Oo;;


hah... Good luck tho !

On the azubu thing... I think everyone can foresee what will happen to LoL in Korea, and LoL scene in general.


haha enlight me please


Take this :

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=125968
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=125673
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=119433

And multiply by a 100, if shit hits the fan. Azubu is the MAIN contributor in LoL. When people will actually know from where they getting the money, LoL in KR is DEAD.

If you followed Broodwar during matchfixing scandal you know what Im taking about.


I know this is TL and it's cool to hate on LoL

but why is a guy who obviously doesn't know anything about League in korea (or even interested in the game judging from post history) spreading bullshit, Azubu has neither been involved with a korean team nor OGN Champions for more than half a year now.

If Azubu is busted (korean)Sc2 will suffer way harder than League.

Why? Their business model is pretty clear. They have several sponsors and they offer advertisement.
