Quick summary of the article:

1.OnGameNet has partnered with Riot Games and will be broadcasting LoL.

2. Two projects are in the works:
a) "LoL Night Show 나는 캐리다" (LOL Night Show I'm the Carry): Hosted by caster "TaeHyung Kim" (김태형), it will focus on giving tips&information in real time while playing the game, and the goal is to recreate an atmosphere similar to a personal internet stream. There will be famous guest players and gifts for the audience. It will debut on Friday (Jan. 13th), and will air every Tuesday and Friday 0:00 ~ 2:00.
b) "LoL Invitational": A series of special matches featuring guest teams from Korea, US and China. The goal is to serve as an appetizer for the first official League of Legends league in Korea planned for February.

Invited teams:
EDG (Kor) - WCG Korean qualifiers champion
MiG (Kor) - WCG Korean qualifiers runner-up
Startale (Kor)
Team OP (Kor)
CLG (USA)
WE (China)

The invitational will begin the recordings on Jan. 13th, 17:00 at YongSan e-sports Stadium. It's TV debut will be on Jan 20th, and it will air every Friday at 19:00, for five weeks.

Very smart. With GSL still having SC2 broadcasting rights, and LoL being more popular than SC2 in Korea, picking this up is a very good business decision for OGN.

You guys do know that both Gretech and Ongamenet are both partially owned by CJ Group, right?

moba games are ridiculous in korea

if you look at pc bang stats wc3 is up there since everyone goes to play chaos which is a dota clone. they are always around 8% ish which is higher than brood war every time.

now LoL/chaos online/cyphers all launched at around the same time in Korea to cash in on the market

i also know a few people in riot games in KR and they're pretty big esports people. remember blizzard korea lost a ton of people over the last few years and they all went to riot.

You can play every character when you play in a PC Bang in Korea, pretty awesome move by Riot to get it going.

Thank god the big Asian teams are goign to get a big scene going so they can dominate the American teams that practice on the scale of single digit hours per WEEK. Give them a kick in the rear so they stop being the lowest skilled pros of any esport around

I honestly find this:

the goal is to recreate an atmosphere similar to a personal internet stream

To be the most interesting part of it. Are streams really getting so popular is Korea that tv wants to emulate them?

I like it. I think this might be the first the NA scene sees of ST and OP playing as teams - I've seen a couple members of ST on solo queue streams, but never as 5.

Nice. I also didnt know that LoL and other Mobas are so popular in Korea. Hopefully they are going to boost the Skilllevel quite a bit. Because the current Level of Progaming in League of Legends appears to be rather low and easy to increase with some work and organisation which we already know from BW and SC2. For example Teamhouses and such. Considering that playing together is even more important in LoL than it is in BW, i would assume that a team of five koreans playing and living together would be able to kick some ass very quickly.

Unfortunately it doesn't matter how much you practice. LoL is cerebral, not mechanical. You either understand how to lane, gank, build a team, and fight, or you dont. There is mechanical skill involved, yes, but it isnt the same as say BW. Understanding and experience is much more important, especially when it comes to making damage trades in game, its what separates 2k+ players from 1800 ones.

And Lol pros play FAR more than single digit hours per week. As much as everyone not involved in lol wants to bash on solo q, it is a very good way to practice and keep individual skill up. You get to see a wide variety of champions and builds, test new things out, and maintain situational awareness. Scrims are good practice in terms of team communication and we are seeing a lot more scrims nowadays, but are they that much more efficient than 2 members of a team duo qing? I dont tend to think so.

And as much as everyone gets butthurt about it, the NA and EU servers will be miles ahead of the other servers for quite some time simply because of the back-loaded experience and sheer amount of time top pros spend in solo q messing around with stuff.

Proleague is streamed at youtube.com/esportstv with VODs going up pretty quickly after so it's possible they'll do the same for LoL. OGN re-streams are also pretty common even if they don't use that youtube channel, there should be a way to watch it.
