Dying for StarCraft in South Korea

[TokiThor]

It looks like it was in the 1970'ies, Starcraft Broodwar was popular.

[tjinhan96]

1:47 She says, you're the guy who I played with? I'm soryy, but you seriously suck xD

[Frangb7]

3:30 -> cs 1.6 -> WTF?

[MrAnimeviewer2000]

I don't think south koreans play enough starcraft

[yemanyaaa]

I get my ass kick so hard by a korean girl yesterday :(

[UCMGTWOClan]

you single? you good at starcraft? BEAT A FATHER'S DAUGHTER AND GET LAID GUARANTED

[Fashri]

No wonder he was dying, since he was using arrow keys.

[isawayto]

@Fashri

SlayerS_BoxeR uses Arrow keys...  /watch?v=bwQE4HuUUCA

[thatgirishican811]

i don't know why but my douchebag detector is off the charts

[destroyer11388]

im playing starcraft while watching this

[bananaempijama]

OMG.....even korean girls are pros at SC O_O

[ovechkin100]

died from not eating sleeping or drinking? omggg

[BattletoDeath]

my screen name on starcraft is toky....

[shadowtygo]

I thought I was the ultimate starcraft fanboy... I can't play SC for longer than 4-5 hours at most..

[hemptime123]

id double armory 2 tank 6 marine timing push her tight choke

[SeleNazzy]

wow what a scrub

[Chemicalclackdrums]

The reporter is the biggest chode ever

[soju69jinro]

they turn to gaming after they fail to go to college... in usa we just go, even if we go to community college, then transfer... in korea it doesnt work that way... no such thing as college= good life... its like good college = good life, normal college= still crap poor life

[Thezamary]

I should have been born in Korea.... im Canadian and I play for over 12 hours a day.

[zarzobb]

Gaming can be healthy too. Just go to the gym and eat well along with your gaming. I don't see what's wrong with it, it's just like any other non-labour job, but fun. Asswipe.

[UnholyWiseClown]

5:30 min lol. I am sure lot of people will undestand this. That guy uses the arrows to play lol. Good luck

[R3DT1D3]

Because them being at home watching TV is sooooooo much better amirite? I laughed at him calling them killer space maggots. Wonder if he made any units.

[bighed23]

what can they do if the nk invvade??

[Frondo22]

@bighed23 use starcraft strategies.

[demonicspire1]

Lol @ him using arrowkeys when playing cs

[DamnRightItsMe]

lmao. Why aren't they translating the Korean parts? I don't know Korean!

[Garother]

@DamnRightItsMe its not hard to make guesses what rabbit said :p "oh, you were that guy? oh my god."

[kpark115]

Lmaoooooo this dude playing with bots in CS and failing horribly

[GreatRhyno]

no wander why their eyes look sooooo sleepy :)

[Ashitaka255]

I first learned of starcraft when SC2 was in beta (didn't even get a key) and it was my first RTS game and within the first moth or so I was in plat league so this guy has no excuse.

Fucking old people.

[macronewb]

@Ashitaka255 sc2 is ALOT easier to play then bw was. Not many people got good at bw without somone teaching them how to play.

[aste9974]

I can hear Wolfenstein 3d constantly, even "ACHTUNG!" and shots fired.

[PauseBroke]

Lets see, what's more healthy? Playing SC for 10 hours a day, or working in a steel mill for 10 hours a day. SC makes more money, and the steel mill you are more likely to get seriously injured. Ask me, I'll take SC any day.

[KAmaKAsa1]

@PauseBroke well not anyone can be a sc pro, not as simple

[PauseBroke]

@KAmaKAsa1 Oh, my point wasn't about being pro. It was just about how people spend their time. If its not SC it will be something else. Making jabs at SC because someone thinks its unhealthy or a waste of time, is irrelevant to the next person who spends their time doing something they like.

[SuspectX1]

lol, its easy to make a game look like nothing much and a waste of time if you suck at them. Once you realize the effort needed to master a game you find out its no childs play and requires an enormous amount of reflex and knowledge. Especially Starcraft.

[catagon12345]

@fckcptlsm Ok, now ur just trolling me by playing dumb. Please tell me u don't really believe playing a computer game 10 hours a day, every day, is healthy.

[catagon12345]

@catagon12345 im sure ppl that are the best at a physical sport are plenty healthy else they wouldnt be able to be able to compete, and they actually LOOK healthy.

[KAmaKAsa1]

@catagon12345 nothing wrong about that, its like a day job, they do other stuff too and its important for your mental health and fitness that you go to gym and jog and such... and progamers do this, because you need to be healthy and in the right mindset to completely focus on the game, you obviously dont understand what esports and being a professional gamer means

[catagon12345]

@KAmaKAsa1 I guess not, since gaming is a hobby.

[catagon12345]

@fckcptlsm at least real athletes look healthy. These gamers look like the place where hygiene and health go to die. And they look nerdy

[ASSASSIN2142MiG2]

0:28 that guy just hot-keyed facebook

[catagon12345]

They have school for starcraft? Who the fuck goes to watch starcraft?

[Proteinisnice]

@catagon12345 because its considered as a sport in south korea. and most sc2 professionals are in good condition and often do weights because big tounaments. Watch what you say, boi

[catagon12345]

@Proteinisnice do weights because of tournaments? wouldnt that hurt their gaming fingers?

[Tweeform]

Arrow keys and mouse like a boss

[bleachfan015]

aigooo the last time i went to a pc bang was back in korea 12 years ago when i was 7 trying to play sc with my hyungs XD

[GrrrDeath]

i d prefer to play 12 hour a day and have fun in order to be a pro gamer rather than 7 hours for a shit work in a shit factory.

[slaughtz]

South Korear

[Jaesango]

5:30 noob

[iliketha]

wow how am i supposed to take this guys' documentary seriously when he hasn't got a clue about starcraft and thinks people live in an orientalist bubble thinking of south korea as some sort of timeless low-tech world?? moron

[ajayinthelife1]

This video is why old people shouldn't be allowed to vote in major elections.

[granturismite]

I get the feeling this was produced for an older audience in Australia, who are scared by these comp-ut-tat-or things

[CCTV9]

Killer space maggots

Best description for Zerg I've heard

[normandorp]

pwned at cs

[insanic1]

i can hear wolfenstien during most of the interviews in the background

[LadyKillerStarcraft]

So what ? I'm only 13 and I play starcraft for 10hours per day and on weekends 13... Just a normal schedule !

P.S and I'm a girl

[STALKERX9]

And sometimes i think i spent too much time playing and in my pc!

Do they have theyr parents giving them money for this kind of life and putting theyr food on the table?

Dont they need to pay to use the cyber cafes computers?

[Drugf4c3]

I keep hearing wolfenstein 3d sounds...

[whoopdeedoodude]

Wtf am I seeing? Girls, guys, children, old men, dads, moms.... Starcraft spares no one in Korea..

[TheMathematical]

omg, I want a job as pro gamer, but the 1st requirement = Need an KSN... shit.

[protoplazmshooter]

Translation of girl:

- Are you ___? *laughs* You're really bad at gaming...

- When I first started gaming? My boy friends all liked to play SC. I used to just chat on the side, but I slowly started to learn.

(Can you beat all the boys now?)

- Yes, of course.

Translation of dude (3:20):

- For three days, I've slept about 1-2 hours a day, or gone without sleep, gaming and eating.

- In a day ... (English) 12 hours?.. Yeah, every day.

- I've ended up breaking up with my girlfriends...

[MapleNo0ber]

fuck baseball this is the best national sport ever XD

[nimrodius]

I wish i could track down my opponents with relative ease.

[nikel3161]

there now space maggots, their zerg!!

[Doronsmovies]

I laughed so hard when he said killer space maggot. And he is like that man plays 15 hours a day, dude that man earns double your year salary in one average competition, this guy sucks so bad rofl.

[depletable]

Because an obsession of Football or MMA is more healthy.

[Sirlancelot555]

i like Korers too!!

[swixomix]

I played a game with killer space maggots, but was beaten every time by therabbit!

[aste9974]

It's not as easy as it looks. I chose a game that had something to do with killer space maggots, and kept being beaten by someone called "The Rabbit"

The tone as well as the ludicrousness of the line is instant lols, especially for a starcraft gamer...

[SynesthesianDreamer]

@aste9974 Completely agree!

[TDBhCorsica]

@aste9974 his face while playing delivers too :D

[yes4me]

nice reportage

[EminemFan1994David]

FOREST GUMP OF KOREA 0:43 the guy in blue shirt

[Ra3nMaN]

LOL Killer space maggots...

[andraken]

Koreans have flat lifes

[therealgibbs]

Notice the rabbit is wearing a samsung shirt and jacket. That's a nice sponsor to have.

[RATPT0I]

Look at it from their point of view, at least they're not CoD fags like most westerners.

>_>

[PascalSWE]

Lol, 04:50 he got 16000 and still uses the glock, newb!

[Vosloff]

@PascalSWE LOL!!! I know. 16000 and still uses the pistol. Reminds me of my 1st CS games. Always died armed with a knife because I always shoot recklessly.

[DemonicTemplar3]

MY LIFE FOR STARCRAFT

[TimeManInJail]

NOoob... got pwn

now grief the fool and make him play his gameboy

[Janox81]

0:39 hes playing custom map rofl :D

[Gallandour]

0:35 Diablo2 FTW

[XcXtrippyXcX]

Its official, the world has finally gone mental... xD

[crazy4sian]

@XcXtrippyXcX No, just the country of South Korea.

[MrAwsome514]

Wait wait wait... Let me get this straight... In korea I coule make twice what I do now just by playing one of my favorite games? I may have to buy a plane ticket tomorrow.

[EyedeaXAbilities]

@MrAwsome514 harder than it looks when their entire country plays starcraft as their national e-sport. :p trust me im white in america and could only get to B+ iccup level after 2 years of hardcore practice. koreans have a magical starcraft button in their brains

[lilith2014]

The journalist doesn't know shit about pcban and games in Korea. I live in korea, this is the shit for a foreigner who loves games.

[deadaim1891]

zerg, killer maggots.

[crazy4sian]

1:50 The girls laughs at him for not being able to play. While normal civilizations would move on from said commentary, Korean BOYS would then proceed to kill themselves.

[namunamuchan]

@crazy4sian you must be one crazy asian

[crazy4sian]

@namunamuchan Good thing I'm only Korean by blood.

[teatime90]

"I chose a game that has something to do with killer space maggots!" 1:15 xD

[StandardStarcraft]

that is the ogs house i think

[CatTitBingo]

am i hallucinating or am i hearing wolfenstein 3d sounds?

[bakterix]

omg he's playing cs with the arrow keys seconds before he concludes he's not sure about if the south korean obsession for gaming is healthy... not for his wrists that's for sure oO

[SwCreators]

Well he is trying to appeal to a broader audience. "Average computer nerd" is pretty stereotypic, he could make a video of how woman are week and stupid (again stereotypic as in reality we know this not to be true) but that would displease a vast majority of his audience.

[WrestlingDwarf]

Lol Space maggots? I guess i get my ass whooped by little space maggots

[greyhunter13]

Typical journalistic ignorance.

[greymval]

Wow! Guys like that journalist are really paid !? This has no soul, no story it's so empty and indifferent. This is not objectivness, it's ignorance, just made to fill the gap between 2 commercials, i bet. I like the theme(&starcraft), I Dislike the vid!

[SiffStarcraft]

@0:35 Diablo 2 :)

[imlatinoguy]

1:42

Reporter: Ahh, excuse me. you must be "The Rabbit"

Asian girl: You're that guy right?

Asian girl: You're such a noob hah *covers mouth* hah

[KaribeMangoLive]

[yoyoyo314159]

[terrell568]

this is why i considered you an idiot i sound ignorant by saying the proper abbreviation for computer? just stoping writing comment kid do you rather me say pu gaming

[gmterminater]

diablo 2 at 1:34

[SnipednSnicks]

Thumbs up for the "Killer Space Maggots" :D

[ZeZy64]

>calling the zerg space maggots.

seriously do something about these journalists or kerrigan will

[terrell568]

I'm surprised they didnt mention CPU gaming is a sport in S korea no wonder there not in shape. No wonder why N korea just decided to take half of their land by some crazy man

[CLICKMEYOULOSER]

@terrell568 CPU gaming? Trying to sound like you know your stuff eh? How the fuck can you play on a CPU alone?

[terrell568]

@CLICKMEYOULOSER are you a 12 year old canadian that cant comprehend the fucking video? "How the fuck can you play on a CPU alone?" I don't even know what the hell that means theres this new thing called connecting online. Do yourself a favor next time your going to try to insult someone come up with a better remark. And when you try to think of a comeback for this please try to make have more sense then the first comment.

[CLICKMEYOULOSER]

@terrell568 But I wasn't trying to insult you. And you should be ashamed to use racism. I THINK U R A 6 YEAR OLD MEXICAN!!!!! HURR DURRR. I was correcting you. So people can understand you. Now chill and put your cock in some ice cold water. Okay?

[terrell568]

@CLICKMEYOULOSER Ok so here we go again your proving my point in three ways that your just a 12 year old i called you a canadian because who says eh outside of canada. My first point that your a 12 year old your a fucking hypocrite you just told me i should be ashamed to use racism when you used it in your following sentence. My second point you said "HURR DURR" which mature person would ever say that in their life? Sadly i cant make my third point due to the character restrictions.

[CLICKMEYOULOSER]

@terrell568 What mature person doesn't know when a capital I applies. "your a 12" That does not make any sense. You're, not your. What mature person doesn't know how to use proper grammar. I used 'HURR DURR' to mock you moron, you missed the point completely. "who says eh outside of canada." So I can't say 'mate' without being inside Australia? And I'm not a Canadian. And I called you a Mexican because I was acting like you. On your channel your age is 48...point proven'. You faked your age kid.

[terrell568]

@CLICKMEYOULOSER Honstely go around to youtube videos read the comments you may or may not see people slipping on their capital I's because it's the fucking internet. Even if you used "HURR DURR" could your tiny brain not think of a better way to mock me without you looking like a complete idiot? On to the next point even when i let anger get the best of me by calling you a canadian that just proves your 12 year old intuition by stooping down to my level. Last point will be in the next comment

[terrell568]

@CLICKMEYOULOSER Last ponit: At the time i was making this account i was actually 13 years old with the same mind set that you currently have so i did change my age to any number. Do you actually think if i was 48 years old i would have time to worry about people like you?

[CLICKMEYOULOSER]

@terrell568 Sure. I believe a kid on the internet saying shit. You typed two comments...you have nothing better to do. I do not think you were 48 years old, I knew you lied about your age idiot. Stop saying people are Canadians just because they use a word that your failure life does not like. Go play on a CPU alone. Obvious kid is obvious. Just clear out your history okay? Or your mother is going to give you a whooping on the ass.

[terrell568]

@CLICKMEYOULOSER Lol i have nothing to do? Your the one who actually started this non sensical argument over cpu gaming and also i dont recall saying anyone was a canadian in my last comment "Obvious kid obvious" where did you learn to structure your sentences. Also who said i dont like the word eh? i presumed your were from canadian decent because you used the word. lol i dont even have any words for the last 2 sentences

[CLICKMEYOULOSER]

@terrell568 Remove the C from CPU gaming so you won't sound ignorant. You do not know ANY internet memes don't you? It's [word] [something] is [same word as first one] for example, fail noob is fail. $5 bucks for the internet lesson please. Have a good day.

[Kerenskyz15]

@CLICKMEYOULOSER

You are an idiot. You want him to say Processing Unit gaming instead of Central Processing Unit gaming? ok, that is retarded. You obviously don't understand what 'meme' refers to, and your explination of redundant speach is useless, as the word 'noob' is not equivilent to 'fail'. A noob is simply someone who is new at a game. They are not all bad at the begining, it is possible, although rare, to ecounter noobs you could call 'win' or 'pro'. You are the ignorant one.

[CLICKMEYOULOSER]

@Kerenskyz15 I'm suffering every time I talk to you. PC does not MEAN PROCESSING UNIT YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT GO DROWN YOURSELF. That was my rage, don't take it seriously. Use Google retard. PC means personal (Or personalized) computer. A meme is for example, the FUUU meme or the Y U NO meme or the challenge accepted meme. N00b does not have one fixed meaning Captain English. Proved you wrong. Don't change the subject. Fuck.

[stewiegriffn]

im calling starcraft "killer space maggots" from now on.

[ZzZ0h5n4p]

@stewiegriffn lol, I think the journalist was talking about the Zerg race, he was playing as Zerg. lol Which is quite true... killer space maggots lol

[DantoraMandova]

ROFL. ADDICTION? he gets paid to do that.

[Flamez2k10]

I FUCKING HATE THIS PIECE OF SHIT JOURNALIST GO FUCKING ROT IN HELL

[Keleko88]

Once the south koreans learn how to control their army with computers, they will pwn north korea.

[TheRacmm]

@Keleko88 fuck North Korea, they will pwn the world

[MrLag1337]

@Keleko88 they'll pwn the world

[Vorgoth911]

@Keleko88

General Boxer!

[Mr2Azn4You]

@Vorgoth911 He is known as the The Emperor, not as a general.

[Christoppher1994]

@Keleko88 ..... They don't need to do that though. With the way Kim Jon Il left it, there'll be a civil war between the govt (who is controlled by the youngest son) and the military (controlled by another jealous son)

[1212ofomyzrc]

@Keleko88 nd probably the world lol

[AdlerSchwadron]

FASTES AS POSSIBLE MAPS!!!!

[alanmarcero]

Don't worry, they'll get invaded by North Korea. StarCraft won't help them, then. ONly after this can foreigners finally beat the koreans.

[jeehoondevil]

@alanmarcero The fuck bro

[krzintegraboi]

korea bogoship da!!

[613Drums]

"jogging, something that helps their endurance"... Endurance... Why do they need that?

[isumprayi]

@613Drums play a strategy game at elite level. you'll need it ;)

[ThePJMcConnell]

Killer space maggots good lord he probably just clicked around on the larva....

[PMeursault]

are there ANY journalists that are gamers? seems every reporter is completely out of touch, they don't know ANYTHING about video gaming

And why isn't there translation? this guy is doing a report in english ffs

[1337Wunderbaum]

@PMeursault I think it`s fun when a completly noob is trying to take on the world champions :P

[henrydog1994]

@PMeursault i wanna know y every journalist doesnt understand that different countries have different cultures, if its a soccer player practising 8 hours a day or something its normal, but if Gamers are playing a game, they are addicted and its weird...

[TheBlockeh]

@henrydog1994 Because it isnt fit...

[Tale2261]

@PMeursault I hardly ever seen a reporter knowing anything about any subject

[sungjun90]

Thanks to their efforts, we Koreans won all Starcraft WCG.

South Korea = Starcraft

[Thetrollmaster2000]

5:15 Right-handed person using the arrow keys? NOOB!

[klzabc]

i heard a couple of good players earn six figure checks. damn i guess it is worth it for some

[rickiex]

@klzabc

boxer is the starcraft player who earned 6 figures a year. and the most pay player ever. but, i doubt he is getting payed that much now tho.
