Gaming in Korea

Korea somehow manages to support two video gaming channels. In this post I'll share some of the videos I took of them. I purposely picked some involving women players because in Korea it seems like there is less of a gender in balance in terms of who plays games.

The first is of a mixed group of men and women playing some kind of first person multiplayer shooter:



In the next video, a female announcer talks about one-shot kills:


A starcraft league advertisement:


A female host cheers on the zerg (one of the aliens in the starcraft game) and complains how people have said her face resembles hobang (a sort of pastry made of bread with bean paste inside). David started talking and playing with my camera at about 1:00 so feel free to stop it then:
