WAHHHHHHH
During the broadcast of 15th MSL Survivor Tournament, a rather suggestive commercial caught the eyes of its viewers. Since many, many young teenagers watch the Survivor Tournament, several complaints protesting the MBC's decision to air that commercial were made.
The commercial was to promote one of MBC's programs called "Real Meeting." Even adult viewers said that the commercial was inappropriate. It consisted of young adults, both men and women dressed in skimpy clothes, licking each others' bodies.
(What the hell?)
It seems that MBC Game has recently been airing a lot more commercials featuring things other than games, including sitcoms and dramas. Of course, that's not necessarily bad. Showing commercials like "Real Meeting," however, does cause problems considering majority of MBC Game viewers are teenagers. It hurts the image of the channel and the game itself. A person on Fomos commented he was indeed shocked and his parents were truly concerned.
What would parents who were watching the channel with their kids think? Would they look at the gaming channel with a new perspective? It's undeniable that airing those commercials negatively affects the reputation of e-Sports and MBC Game.
It seems MBC really should reconsider the possible consequences. Nobody is saying that the channel should be hundred percent all about gaming. But they do need be more careful with the message those commercials might send, how they would affect the viewers, and their unavoidable effects on e-Sports and StarCraft itself.

Badass Much?
Boxer 'the Emperor'
NaDa 'Genius Terran'
iloveoov 'Cheater Terran'
sAviOr 'Ma Bonjwa'
Those four are without a doubt the most well-known and praised progamers of all time. Each boasting several titles in both OSL and MSL, they are often referred as "bonjwas." And guess what? They are the theme of Incruit OSL 08!
The Lim-Lee-Choi-Ma lineup of StarCraft legends will be featured in the Incruit RO16 Opening, as well as Reach and Anytime. The title fits perfectly: "Be The Legend!" As the StarLeague progresses, the openings will start featuring more and more current OSL players instead of the legends.
Protoss legends of fall (Reach, Anytime) and the 4 bonjwas secretly finished filming the openings in early August. So yeah, put your homework aside, grab some energy drinks, stay up and tune in to watch the players try to become the next legend.Last edit: 2008-10-13 01:50:12 |

You know I saw the Incruit opening and kept thinking there was a helluva lot of Reach. His total frame time is probably more than the other five put together.
Sexy sexy Reach made it!
Poor Rainbow, though. I would have liked to see him. |

I must say that I didn't notice boxer in the incruit opening, which seemed very weird and inappropriate.
But if he's there for the ro16 opening I guess we'll have to wait. Or, I'm just blind and kept staring at mantoss' manliness and missed him or something... |

Can someone enlarge the last picture? That shit is wallpaper worthy.
