Well, today was my birthday, a really busy day. We celebrated a part of my birthday in class, it was pretty cool from the teacher! Afterwards, my girlfriend joined me at university and we went to Yongsan directly, to write names on paper to have a place in stadium. Monday and Tuesday, ProLeague starts at 6:30 pm. We went there at 2:00 pm and already 45 people on the paper. The match was full. All chairs already taken, so other people were standing up behind chairs, as always.
Before that, we met again and again SK Telecom T1 fan girls. They directly called me and wished me a happy birthday. Then, they gave me some cook rice with SKT sticker on eat. It was rally cute from them, really kind girls. Well after that, we entered in stadium.
The match was pretty interesting. I was really glad (of course) that SKT won. I was a little bit affraid with my girlfriend because, MBCGame HERO made good results these times, for example beating CJ Entus 3-0. CJ is an impressive team so, we were guessing if SKT will have difficulties or not. Well, the answer was NO. Doh Jae Wook (BeSt), Jung Myung Hoon (fantasy) and Kim Taek Yong (Bisu) played perfectly. The game style that they produced was good. Eu Yoon Su had difficulties during his match up against Lee Jae Ho but he did his best, he will improve more and more, I'm pretty sure.
After match, I met fan girls and we met players. Almost every girls were arround Kim Taek Yong... so I decided to talk again with Ko In Kyu (Canata), but this time, there were 4 girls with him, it was great we talked each other. But I was really happy, just before starting talking, Lim Yo Hwan (BoxeR) put his hand on my shoulder, and told me in Korean "피에르장, 생일 축하합니다!" That means, "Pierre-Jean, happy birthday!". 2 things really amazed me. He remembered the date of my birthday, when we talked last week during fan meetings, and especially the other thing, my name. I was really happy yo hear that. Afterwards, Ko In Kyu told me the same thing but him, forgot totally. Hence, we laughed a lot because he added something after that which was "Oh, tomorrow it's my birthday!". Well guys, you know his birthday, 6/24!
Girls wanted to take pictures of together arround Ko In Kyu but unfortunately, my cellphone fell in low battery so impossible to take pictures. Girls didn't have any camera. Then, after fan meetings, I decided to take subway and back home. Then in subway, something happened. This thing made me so happy...
Check the man on the right. His name is Jeong Yong Hui. This is the first person that I met on the StarCraft progaming scene. In March, in my university, my mentor talked about a friend of him who worked in a proteam, but he didn't remember the name of this one. Then he just told me "My friend knows really well Lee Yeong Ho" So I just answered him directly "Ok, your friends is working with KTF" (yes, when teachers introduced me my mentor, KT wasn't still the name of the team, it was arround March.". Well, Jeong Yong Hui called me and told me "There is KT vs Air Force, let's meet there and I will introduce progamers." Well, I went there, and KT won. There were the fan meeting as always but here, it was really special. I could meet progamers in another way than a fan meeting. I met them in an individual way and we took many pictures. Thanks to him, I can talk with progamers that I want, expect the fan meeting. I'm really happy now because when I see Woo Jung Ho (Violet), he goes to me and tell me some words. He is really nice guy. Really, the same kind of guy than Ko In Kyu. Here, you can check pictures that we took arround March with Woo Jung Ho, Park Ji Soo (fOrGG) and Lee Yeong HoFlash :
So, today in the subway as I said, MC Hui called me. He told something really fun with his fast Korean speaking. The translation was kind of something like "yo PJ, do you need something for your birthday?" ahah, the way looked agressive like an order, I really laughed a lot about that! Then I said "Of course no, just tell me happy birthday that's so kind." Then, he adds something really... amazed. He "Ok SKT fan, happy birthday. Well, this week I have to work to KT office, I will give you the KT full set uniform for you." I just said "Man, no way, KT didn't have shop for that and uniforms for progamers, you told me that before when we talked about some progaming shops." Afterwards, he added a precious sentence that I will never forget "PJ, I will offer you the KT full set uniform. It's my present, you will have good memories of that later. I know you will not wear that during SKT match ahaha but, really accept my present. We are friend." Well, I didn't find any words to say... that's really kind from him.
That's finish for today. I will keep writing maybe tomorrow. I will go to MBC stadium and watch KT. The match starts at 1:00 pm but my school finish at 1:00 pm too. I will be late but anyway, no problem!
