Its a yes and no question. Sometimes he is, but not always. I've learned things about mkp that completly changed my opinion of mkp, actually that happens a lot with mkp. I'll learn something new and It'll be like "wow I did not think of him like that," and yeah.

Yeah, give us the dirt.
I don't have much dirt. But I'll give one example.
I'll be sitting here praticing, just playing my matches, and mkp will lose his match that he was playing, and I'll hear him curse in Korean. The first time I heard him swear in Korean it really made me go "wow that guy actually has that language in him,"
Stuff like that happens often, where he will say something, or do something really different. He is a hard guy to read well.

Haha, well as an MKP fan that doesn't surprise me one bit. I've always viewed him as someone who wears his emotions on his sleeve, so you can always tell when he's happy or sad, so him swearing after losing a match doesn't surprise me. Now if you told me he then started raging like Idra, then I would be shocked.

I live in Bucheon, which is in between Incheon and Seoul. and I can coach both Terran and Protoss. I could coach Zerg, but since I have never played Zerg, it would not be nearly as effective as my protoss or Terran coaching.

I've seen him get close to idra rage, like slamming his mouse and stuff, but not raging in game and stuff. Speaking of which mkp just got back a few hours ago and looks beat up. a long weekend for him I think it was. haha

Ha yeah. I meant more along the verbal rage cause even day 9 has talked about his rage against his comp equipment before. Like, I couldn't picture mkp trashing his opponents in game and calling them terrible and a waste of life and stuff.

I don't see him doing that kind sort of stuff either. nobody in Korea would do that kind of stuff.

Smoking is treated very much like smoking is in the United states. Its not encouraged, but discouraged, and in general their are smoking areas and such away from buildings.
Only Salmosa smokes in the prime house. Though he doesn't actually smoke in the house, he goes outside of the apartment building to smoke.

actually I have no idea what happend. He hasn't been in the house the last couple of days, and I have not really asked what happend, but I assume Maru just went to visit family for a few days for a break. Would not be suprised if that was the case.

Koreans on iCCup were the most BM opponents :o
I meant in terms of progamers. No Korean progamer would ever bm someone.
Hey breti, thanks again for all the updates you've been providing
Just wondering - are all the rumors people have been repeating about the tension between Prime and Startale true? MKP made a pretty heartfelt speech about wanting to end the bad feelings at the group selection meeting after July said he felt cheated while picking. GOM didn't solicit Startale for a response and I'm wondering if you have any insider info on how all that drama is playing out.

I really have not asked. Nor have I witnessed any blatant tension between the two teams. But I do hear them speak about startale more often then they used to before. This may just be because they beat Startale, but I don't know. Its kind of werid.

Well a few players here speak ok english. Usally conversation is in broken english, which is fine. I can speak a little Korean, but not enough to say a fullsentence.
Listening to artosis talk about maru the other day, he mentioned that he's got great teammates to bounce ideas off and get help from. However, you said maru rarely talks to anyone in the team. My question is, how much shared strategy talk really goes on in the house because from your description it sounds like everyone just does their own thing and bury their heads in their own computer without much socialization.
