Korean StarCraft Gamer is Royalty

The LA Times has a new article profiling the Korean StarCraft Superstar, Lim Yo-hwan.

"For every teenage boy whose dad hollered to turn off that stupid video game because it'll rot your brain and ruin your life, Lim Yo-hwan is a god: The 27-year-old is the most famous professional gamer in South Korean electronic sports, and his dominance has earned him hundreds of thousands of dollars annually in salary, prize winnings and commercial endorsements."

"Lim's skill at playing the futuristic battle game StarCraft has turned him into the first superstar of the e-sports era, South Korea's Babe Ruth of gaming. Usually referred to by his nicknames Boxer (short for his game ID SlayerS_'BoxeR') or the Emperor, he has won more games of professional StarCraft than anyone else in South Korea, becoming a celebrity in a country so serious about gaming that it boasts professional leagues and two cable channels televising games 24/7.
