T/N: For those who are not aware, Dong-Rae-Gu is actually the name of Park, Soo Ho or DRG's hometown and the origin of his handle.
DongRae-Gu = town
DRG = player
Pusan DongRae-Gu, introduces DRG in a local newspaper! DRG receives permission to attach a DongRae-Gu badge to uniform
Pusan Kwang Yeok Si, DongRae-Gu Cheong has written a feature story on DRG in a local newspaper.
DongRae-Gu introduced DRG on the fifth page of the local newspaper, ‘DongRaeGoEul’, published on the 26th of March. DongRaeGoEul delivered a detailed story on DRG with the title: ‘Park Soo Ho, a progamer, stands on top of the world with the ID DongRaeGu’
DoneRaeGoEul reported that unlike most progamers who use English words for their ID, DRG was proud of being a member of DongRae-Gu and he chose the name of his town as his ID after much consideration and also reported the list of prizes won by DRG and his progaming career in detail.
Also, they included an interview from Coach Choi, Yeun Sang which said “DRG is a player who plans his entire game out well and is a first rate player who leads his team” as well as DRG’s declaration that he will “attend more foreign tournaments and raise his town’s renown”.
DoneRae-Gu is the home town of DRG and he has contributed to the promotion of his home town by winning the GSL, IEM, MLG, etc.
DongRae-Gu has acknowledged DRG’s contribution and allowed the attaching of a DongRae-Gu badge to his uniform and an interview with ‘PuSanIlBo’ is planned for the near future (T/N: larger newspaper, for the entire city).

Oh wow very nice ! I did not know that, I bet that all the people in Dong Rae Gu love DRG <3 :D , this is really cool, I'm sure DRG is very pleased about this as well since this is why he chose his name, interesting, thanks for this.
EDIT : he must have a lot of hometown pride to choose that as his username, I think thats very respectable

Great ! I hope the whole town will watch his GSL matches and cheer for him in a giant TownCraft !

It's good to see that people not directly related to the Starcraft community or e-sports in general are able to recognize e-sports-related achievements.
|
So awesome, DRG has such a likable persona.
