Maybe because I am restarting my education after 2 years hiatus because of Korean military... Why would you even ask that? Seems like you are either trying to be a jackass or dim-witted... | ||

If you are dedicated and intelligent, which I assume Taeja must be to be so goddamn good at Starcraft, it's not so hard. There is an adjustment period, but it's not a big deal. | ||

It would be a shame if he retires. Top 10 SC2 player all-time. | ||

It feels like you are implying that I am not dedicated and intelligent. Working isn't the same as being in the military, and Korean military is basically manual labor with cigarettes as compensation... Also, if you are trying to get a REAL degree (actuarial science with finance minor), it is actually difficult as fuck. Sorry, life-long pro-gammers no matter how smart they are (July with inhuman IQ) have a difficult time getting a good degree and career in Korea. Most that do are almost directly hired by their sponsor companies for marketing ploys. Taeja isn't a "leader" type person to get hired as a coach after retirement or have enough personality to cast. He knows that the clock is ticking and his physical state isn't improving. | ||

Apparently everyone who posts on TL can do everything better than the folks involved with Esports. I'm pretty sure most people can do better than not exploring a foreign country and eating microwaved food all day. | ||

Those were my thoughts initially too, but considering the fact that he's a top player and he regards his time there to be a business trip for professional training, you can't really fault him for it - especially since whatever he's doing is working. Still, getting takeout isn't that difficult or time consuming. =P | ||

There are several places in the world where I would have trouble eating because I do not react well to spices. Big changes in your diet can kick your ass. People should just like Taeja handle his own diet, rather than being armchair tour guides and food experts. The man can handle his own food. | ||
