Lacks references to 80's cartoons that were only shown in US.

How does a stenographer even keep up in a Korean court? They speak like a thousand syllabus a minute.

"Because Hydralisk is light armor"?

Interesting, Superstar went for Roach/Hydra over Roach/Infestor... and it's working.

Been like this since Broodwar. Agreed, it's a big part of what made BW exciting. For the same reason, I can't bring myself to find american pro wrestling anything but silly. The japanese commentators for japanese wrestling however get all intense about it and it makes it highly enjoyable to watch, as you feel you're watching a real sport and not some random scripted showmatch. If the commentators care about something, the spectators also care about it.
Imo there's always something about listening to things in a language you don't understand that actually lends itself to a broadcast when you understand the content regardless. Maybe it's the extra attention you pay to tone of voice, inflection, and other audible clues to what is happening, but you often tend to pick up on things that you otherwise take for granted in your native tongue.
On a more game related note, SuperStar is actually really quite good xD

Oh Mr. Chae, you silly

I'm so much more used to listening the korean casting, even now I usually tune out or mute english casters. But I always leave the korean casters on, they provide the emotional cues to the game that few english casters do, and they provide insight and analysis on a level that few english casters do. Sadly I can't understand the last part. EDIT: On another topic, I really hope Tree and KingKong qualify. Although I still love GuMiHo. t.t Can we somehow watch GSL with korean caster? I usually try to watch the GOMTV vods with the app on my iphone (and I guess ipad now too), they are with korean commentary ^_^ I've never watched Korean SC2 commentary, but after this match I will definitely change that.
Sweet new Icon btw

Ahh... The pleasurable, relaxing sound of Korean commentating... Haven't heard this since BW.

KingKong just got to the final who the hell he is really ?

Soon we will get Khaldor though, and we can both udnerstand what he says and he brings an awesome level of excitement to the game. He already gets excited over the foreigners, he will explode in Korea out of sheer excitement :D
(Not trying to diss the current casters or caster whine, I have no problems with them at all ^_^)

He's a StarTale player
ed: though confusingly he's listed as Z on tlpd and P in the brackets...so maybe he's not the same guy.

Also, it's interesting to follow how Khaldor gets shinier and shinier as the games go on.
