![]() ![]() I was like, wow… What kind of place is this… It amazed me how everyone was gambling. But there would be a casino in the underground wherever we went. Other than that, I would usually stop by here and there in the shopping mall while we went out to eat. When other people go to play in the casino, I just stay back at our hotel to rest. I learned that… gambling is very bad and I should only do it for fun. It was different since I got to take a look around the casino now that I am a fully grown-up. ▲He seems to be talking about the fountain in front of the Bellagio Hotel… The huge fountain I saw in front of the hotel back then is still here. My first visit was back when I was in elementary school. MadLife: I think this guy has more to say than I do… He’s really enjoying himself in Las Vegas.Ĭaptain Jack: Actually, it’s my second time here in Las Vegas. How is Las Vegas? Are you both enjoying yourselves? It certainly feels more festive this year. MadLife: They don’t even have any practice facility.Ĭaptain Jack:There aren’t any players who are practicing at all, and it’s more focused on interacting with each other. It seems that Riot intended for this year’s All-Star event to be a fun one, and players are enjoying themselves without any pressure as well. I didn’t have any chance during my time as a pro gamer but it’s great that I got to participate this time as a streamer. However, it was great since I had a lot of time to share stories with both Korean and foreign streamers this time.Ĭaptain Jack:I participated as a 6th man around 2 years ago, and I got to participate this year as a streamer. Back in my time as a player, there was a bit of pressure since I would have to win in order to make it fun even if I wanted to enjoy playing. MadLife: It feels different as I got to take part not as a player but as a streamer. How are you two enjoying yourselves at this year’s All-Star? MadLife, you’ve had a lot of experience in All-Star events and Captain Jack, you too have participated in All-Star as a 6th man. MadLife: Maybe something like, ‘Please subscribe to my YouTube channel, hahaha’?Ĭaptain Jack: Haha… That’s a bit… Yeah, anyway, I’ve been working hard in order to be able to work in game-related programs. I’ve been working hard through my stream on Twitch after I retired as well. I’ve been coming to meet you fans recently through my stream and several events.Ĭaptain Jack: Hello, I am Hyung-Woo ‘Captain Jack’ Kang. ![]() ![]() MadLife:Should I start first? Hello, I am Min-Gi Hong, ‘MadLife’, who is currently streaming on Twitch.TV after I retired from pro gaming. Although you’ve been communicating with your fans via your stream, could you please briefly tell us how you have been for those who don’t watch? The following is our interview with them about the ‘2nd part’ of their lives. We had the chance to interview them on the last day of All-Star event in a nearby cafe. MadLife and Captain Jack participated in this year’s All-Star event, not as players, but as streamers. Fans have been enjoying the fun chemistry they share - a chemistry they didn’t have a chance to show during their time as pro gamers. They may no longer have the same benefits and challenges they had when they were pro players but they are still enjoying their lives as part of the community. The 1st part of their gamer lives was as pro players, and they are now living the 2nd part by interacting with their fans via personal streams and game-related TV programs. This is true even for players like Min-Gi ‘MadLife’ Hong and Hyung-Woo ‘Captain Jack’ Kang, who are both a living part of the LCK’s history. Of course, it is inevitable that the younger generation of players will take over. Many players have come and gone in the LCK, yet there are still some players who have been playing since the very early era of the League. It’s been a long time since League of Legends was released. ![]()
