South Korean defense minister: 'This isn't StarCraft' (Korean audio)

[RebornTheElite]

All that matters is a translation that provides the jist of what is being said. Worrying about minor errors in a translation that change the meaning by only a bit is foolish.

[chesedchesed]

Adjutant: Nuclear Launch Detected

Obama: Yes We Can

[smallzilok]

In Ukraine or Sweden it should be like this:

Defense minister: Our soldiers can't destroy the enemy from such a big distance, we need more expensive weapon.

Economics' minister: Let them just train more.

Defense minister: This isn't Counter-Strike. Efectiveness of their shoot depends not only on their skills but also on a quality of a weapon, so give us smoe money.

:DDD

[FIGHTFANNERD3]

nerds rock we are the future

[SolarCasper]

A: We are being 6 pool'ed by the enemy sir!

B: Wall off with SCV's... NOW!!!

A: Its too laaa.....

B: Wall off the ramp you idiot...

[Longmachao]

The scary part is not that he know about Starcraft... its that everyone in the room know what he's talking about.

YOU WILL MISS YOUR EE-HAN TIMING

[Butthurt9000]

я нихуя не понял

[m0f0yu0]

Defense minister is right-it's more like Warcraft III or DotA, where you get a hero, level him up first, then attack.

[aznbspikey]

Dude on the right is like "Pfft , see me in SC2 then bro ."

[Niragan]

blizzard must be soooo proud!

[ramendan]

imagine if north k becomes a capitalist and start plying stc

[vinhhieu3]

Even then, In starcraft the idea is that you don't retaliate in light of them attacking you =\, idea is that you macro up and get even further ahead....

[DJBuckCallYo]

lol In Korea even the politicians play SC...

[lin2k4]

SC is hella big in Korea

[IMManslayer]

Imagine a base race in real life

[iStormrage]

@IMManslayer

They had one cf. Cold War

[darkmankill1]

They didn't counter attack because they were teching.

[LucaTurilli89]

0:06 StarKreft or something you can hear it! :)

[x42bn6]

Boxer for defence minister!

[andyisasian13]

YOU GUYS

[chltmdwp]

Nuclear Lunch Detected!

[badnewZZZZgosu]

[SenzoXD]

After Kim Jong il saw this, he smiled and said one thing "Nuke Rush"

[Zeesarh]

well.. use a detector

[CreatingDrake]

They playin at 2apm noobs

[blutch222]

Is it me or is the MP completely made out of plastic?

[XtremeAssassinGaming]

put a V in between the M and P thats what tehy need

[diekontrolleure]

@XtremeAssassinGaming hahaha the game genie terran is to op for politics

[MichaelWithstand]

Yet South Korea soldiers now have been given order to shoot back when shot at. To strike back when struck, without needing permission from superior.

I guess STARCRAFT WON!

[mekanik187]

i LOVE E market thumbs up if u know what and where im talkin about

[mcerhard]

noob, you can easily micro around the bombs.

[neozxa]

@mcerhard Just ask BoxeR to micro the troops.

[AlduinWorldEater]

LoL so these High ranked politicians also play Starcraft ?

ROFL

[neozxa]

Wait a minute...

So they play STARCRAFT?!

[TheNemesis274]

@neozxa Starcraft to them is like Football or Basketball in America.

[killer00630]

If the politician asks him about the Korean war where the Chinese joined the war and attacked the UN lines... the defense minister would mention Zergling Rush. =D

[llVIU]

in korea, even ministers play cool games, in romania, ministers don't know how to count... how utterly sad

[tiveqcriarcontanova]

epic...

Well done SC community. ":D

[pch0mey]

gg!

[adamskyride]

They should just got for a base trade.

[BaileysBeads]

@adamskyride Right now they're putting pressure on each other's economies, they both threaten with nuking each other's workers.

[BaileysBeads]

It would be like western politicians using a chess analogy.

[simonx49]

hit cc for subtitles

[MairouTV]

This guy is in bronze league and doesnt know what his talking about. SlayerSBoxer should be the commander of south korean army.

[TheeAntiFOB]

MP Kim Hak-Song engages in too many base trades.

[rottendeadite]

I love how nobody even cracks a grin at that. That's how integrated the game is in Korean culture.

[vRane]

@rottendeadite

What? Everybody gracks a grin?

[rottendeadite]

@vRane Sarah Palin is the idra of politics.

[4TehLulz]

@rottendeadite more like Sarah Palin is the CombatEX of politics: shits for brain, same retarded canon rush, if game goes past 10:00 she quits.

[kdwormy]

@rottendeadite lol you kidding? Palin is twice the whine with a hundred times less skill.

[dnLthEeloSt]

@rottendeadite no the MP was somewhat annoyed that he the defence minister used the term to get back at him. thats why he looks down

[DreamcarameI]

@rottendeadite Well if someone had laughed at there, he would have been banned from politics. that movie clip is about North Korea fired cannons to a South Korean island(Yeon-Pyeong Do). 2 ROK marines and 2 civilians died, many lost their home. In that situation nobody would dare to grin a little bit.

[irkiIIer]

lmao they take this game so seriously that thy are gonna try to use it into real life

[yelyos]

MP Kim Hak-Song: Isn't it common sense to not wait until after the other attack has finished before starting your counterattack?

Defense Minister: When you're thinking of StarCraft strategy, what you are saying applies. But in a real situation where bombs are everywhere and people are trying to avoid them, reattacking at the same time is not ideal.

[infinummjb]

@yelyos Thank you very much for the translation :) I'll try to add it as captions when I have a spare moment.

[kpark115]

@infinummjb This translation is wrong btw... MP was saying WHY did the counter attack NOT happen immediately after they fired on the island?

And the Defense minister says that unlike starcraft people are actually trying to dodge bombs and run away from it, which is why counter attack did not happen simultaneously

[infinummjb]

@kpark115 Can you provide me with a better translation?

[101cheshire]

@kpark115 Your translation, along with yelyos original are both inaccurate. There are no references to 'dodging' or 'avoiding' bombs in Minister Kim Tae Young's remark. He said "in a situation where damage is being done here and there".

[infinummjb]

@101cheshire I'd be more than happy to replace the current text with a more accurate one, so it would be great if you could please send me the correct translation on priv. Thanks :)

[theknightswhosayfrak]

@yelyos What they need are a couple dozen dark templars and hope North dosen't have Turrets.

[vinhhieu3]

@theknightswhosayfrak Completely wrong dude, what you needed was a mothership to vortex all those North Korean Marines and then you surround them with Dark Templars to make sure they cant escape and then use your high templars to make storm clouds over them... *trollface*

[theknightswhosayfrak]

@vinhhieu3 Actually you just need to nuke em all.
