edit: he also says you're welcome to add him as a friend on FB: www.facebook.com/sogoodtt

Sonic wanted to send a message to teamliquid, but he is not very comfortable speaking English, so he requested that I post this in his stead. I will include the original message in Korean in case you want to read that.

Hello, members of Teamliquid ^^
This is BJSonic of Korea, currently in charge of the SSL. Starting a while back, the SSL was advertised on TL and I wanted to say thank you to all of you who have been following it. I want it to be a good spectacle for those of you who still have a passion for BW. Ever since its inception as an amateur league when I was 19 years old, it's been six years. Barring the two years I spent in the military, that means the league has been running for four years, and for this SSL, I wanted to show something special, something more for all the fans. Although a lot of unseen variables came up, everything worked out better than expected, especially thanks to all the fans from both Korea and Teamliquid.

Regarding the license, starting from the 8th SSL, I will be obtaining an official license, and I will be proceeding with extra caution as to not get tangled up in an amateurish mishap again. I want to say sorry for all the fans, and reflect on my mistakes. I will do my best not to disappoint fans of BW everywhere, and show a more improved BJSonic from hereon. If you have the opportunity, I would like to extend a warm welcome to the finals on December first, 2012, but I understand that it is probably impossible for a lot of you ^^ Even in the future, I hope that some of you will visit me while I am hosting a tournament! Because I have only interacted with Koreans my whole life, it will probably be very difficult to communicate, but I have faith that our love for the game can overcome any language or culture barrier.

Even the fact that one of my fans from Korea is willing to take the time to translate and post this message makes me so thankful, and I have been keeping up with your replies [on facebook, etc.] through translations. Thank you all for cheering for me, and I will try even harder to take this very far. Thank you ^^

안녕하세요. 팀리퀴드에 회원분들.^^
저는 한국에서 현재 SSL리그를 총괄 담당하고 있고, 운영하고 있는 BJ소닉이라고 합니다.
얼마전에 팀리퀴드를 통해서도 제 리그가 홍보되고 있고 제 리그를 좋아해주시는 모든 분들에게 다시 한번 감사드립니다.
아직 스타크래프트1를 좋아해주시는 모든 분들에게 좋은 리그가 되었으면 좋겠고, 19살때 진행되오던 아마추어리그 부터. 지금까지. 6년 이란 시간이 지났습니다. 2년의 군생활을 제외한.. 4년동안 리그를 이어온건데. 이번 7차 스타리그를 통해 더 많은걸 보여드리고. 더 멋진걸 보여드리고 싶었는데 생각보다 잘 풀리고. 여러가지 변수가 생겼음에도 불구하고. 팀리퀴드를 포함한 한국에 팬분들이 많은 도움을 주셧습니다.
라이센스 부분에 있어서 8차 리그는 공식적으로 따고. 진행에 있어 미숙한점 안보일수 있도록 조심하고. 이번건은 죄송하다는 말씀 드리고 반성 하겠습니다. 실망 안 시켜드리고. 스타1을 사랑하는 모든 팬분들에게 좋은 모습 보여드릴수 있도록 노력 해보겠습니다.
뭐 기회가 된다면 이번 2012년 12월 1일. 결승전 장소에 구경이라도 와주시면 좋겠지만. 그게 사실 여건상 많이 힘들것 같고. ^^ 제가 진행 하는 동안 언제라도 한번 한국 찾아와주시면 너무나도 좋을것 같습니다.ㅎㅎ!
실제로 한국사람들하고만 교류를 해서 외국분들하고 대화는 잘 안통하겠지만. 게임으로 통한다는걸 보여줄수 있는 자리가 될 것 같기도 하구요.
한국에 제 팬분 한명이 이렇게 번역까지 해서 올려주는 이 순간도 너무 고맙고. 여러분들의 댓글들도 번역을 통해 다 보고 있습니다.
응원해주시는 모든분들에게 감사드리구. 더 열심히 하고. 쭉 달려 나가보겠습니다
감사합니다.^^

It makes me very happy to see what is left of the Korean bw scene reaching out to us foreigners.

Thank you Sonic for not only continuing to show great games but also working hard to share it with the rest of the world!

D'awwww now I have to watch every single VOD that I didn't see the cast for.
SC is like sex. You should play often, but never too hard. And you should only try hard when it matters.

Thanks for hosting such an awesome tournament (and for reaching out to TL)! I was pretty worried when I first heard the bad news, but it's great to hear that everything is going to go on without too much of a hitch. I'll certainly be watching the finals live!

remember guys, you can always add Sonic on Facebook and leave him a personal message there. Several foreigners have already done so and have left their messages, and Sonic really truly appreciates it.
