Chapter 33: Just how many beatings does it take to become a horn? [Seeking monthly votes and to keep
The online discussion intensified.
Although many people are saying that the new T1 doesn't have 80, the injuries on the faces of mid laner Lee Joo-hyun and Kim Jang-dong are not made up out of thin air.
Those feelings were written all over their faces!
Especially Kim Jung-soo, he was fine in the last game, but ended up with a bruised and swollen face after the game!
At that time, everyone was competing, and only Lee Doo-hwan, Koo Sung-bin, and Kim Jung-soo were in the rest room.
As a local, Gu Shengbin certainly wouldn't dare to make a move, so naturally only one possibility remains.
In other words, because of his special status, only Lee Doo-hwan dared to break this tradition of hierarchy!
In addition, all of T1's recent participants have been injured, except for Lee Doo-hwan, so naturally, the criticism from the 80s generation has been directed at him!
Look at the young mid-laner, he's clearly terrified. That's how people born in the 80s behave!
……
Someone dug up a video of a fan asking why the mid laner's eyes were red when T1 lost to DRX for the first time.
At that time, the mid-laner's answer was that he hadn't rested well!
At that time, no one felt that anything was wrong.
But now that T1 players are in such a terrible state, when you look back at this video, you can clearly see that something is very strange about it!
Because when mid-laner Lee Joo-hyun was asked by fans why his eyes were red, he didn't give a direct answer.
He first glanced timidly at Lee Doo-hwan before answering that he hadn't rested well!
This situation speaks volumes!
Red eyes aren't necessarily from lack of rest, but rather...
He got beaten up!!!
……
Holy crap, it's hard to imagine what that mid laner has been through to look so terrified!
Let me put it this way: when I was in the 80s, they looked at me the same way!
Indeed, as a local, I've been subjected to the "80s generation" mentality since childhood, by older students in school, and by veterans in the army. So I understand that look all too well!
[So here's the question: even if it really is my brother Huan, a post-80s generation, how do you explain that, Coach Kim? You guys don't think someone who weighs a little over 100 pounds is actually a fat guy who weighs almost 300 pounds, do you?]
"Hey... it's just the 80s generation, I thought it was something big. Here, it's just commonplace!"
……
The online discussion is in full swing.
However, things are better in the LCK, since the hierarchy is a tradition there, even though some people strongly oppose this behavior.
However, the fervor surrounding this boycott is clearly not as strong as the noise from the neighboring Laopi Lao!
It's important to know that Lee Doo-hwan is seen as a traitor who defected to the LCK by LPL fans, and as a sinner who owes IG an S-series championship by fans like Zombie.
Now that this incident involving the 80s has occurred in the LCK, you can imagine how badly Lee Doo-hwan will be perceived in public opinion!
……
While the industry was embroiled in heated debate over whether Lee Doo-hwan exhibited "post-80s" behavior.
Lee Doo-hwan also kept his promise and treated the mid-laner and his friends to a meal.
In addition, Lee Sang-hyeok, Bae Joon-sik, and Lee Jae-wan were also called over.
Bae Joon-sik will be returning to 100T soon, so this meal can be considered a farewell dinner for him.
Lee Sang-hyeok initially made excuses about having something to do, but he only came running over eagerly after Lee Doo-hwan offered to pay.
……
The dinner table.
The younger generation sat there obediently, their expressions tense despite it being a celebration banquet.
Only Lee Sang-hyeok, Bae Joon-sik, and a few other veteran SKT members, along with Koo Sung-bin sitting next to Lee Doo-hwan, appeared relatively relaxed.
There was really no other way, mainly because Lee Doo-hwan had been so unpredictable and moody over the past month.
So it's best to be honest; nobody wants to be criticized online!
After glancing at everyone, Lee Doo-hwan spoke slowly and deliberately.
"I'm a person who really knows how to reward and punish. You guys will definitely be punished for losing the game!"
but……
Now that you've won the championship, I'll keep my word. Order whatever you want to eat today.
"I'll pay the bill!!!"
Upon hearing that Lee Doo-hwan was treating, Lee Sang-hyeok and Bae Joon-sik ordered quite a lot of food without being shy.
After ordering, while waiting, everyone chatted idly.
Sitting next to Bae Jun-sik, Lee Joo-hyun, the mid-laner, hesitated for a moment before secretly tugging at the other's clothes under the table.
"Zhou Xuan, what's up?"
Bae Jun-sik is not Lee Doo-hwan, so the mid-laner naturally wasn't as timid as he was when facing Lee Doo-hwan.
Of course, the young mid-laner was initially fearless when he saw Lee Doo-hwan, but after being taught a lesson, he has become much more sensible.
"Jun-sik hyung, I want to ask you a question." The mid-laner's voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of provoking something terrible.
"What's the problem?" Bae Jun-shik leaned forward slightly, putting his ear close to the other person's face so he could hear him clearly.
"You won two S-level championships, right?"
"Yeah," Bae Joon-sik nodded. "Why are you suddenly asking this?"
"Was Doo-hwan as strict as he is now back then?"
When he said this, the mid-laner lowered his voice and kept glancing at Lee Doo-hwan, who was talking to Lee Sang-hyeok, as if afraid that the other party would notice.
It was only because Bae Joon-sik deliberately extended his ear that he could hear clearly; otherwise, he might not have been able to hear it clearly.
Seeing the pitiful look on the mid-laner's face, Bae Jun-sik's lips curled up into a nostalgic smile.
"Zhou Xuan, how should I put it!"
I was also taught a lesson by Doo-hwan back then, and I almost broke down and wanted to become a flying man.
Looking back now, however, these were all extremely valuable experiences in my life.
Moreover, if it weren't for Doo-hwan's strict supervision back then, I probably wouldn't be the double S-rank AD carry I am today.
Do you understand what I'm saying, brother?
"I think I understand a little." The mid-laner nodded blankly.
However, after hearing Bae Jun-sik say that he had also been taught a lesson by Doo-hwan, the mid-laner's mental block was clearly relieved, and he was no longer as depressed as before.
Immediately afterwards, Lee Joo-hyun asked the question that he desperately wanted to know the answer to.
"Jun-sik hyung, how many beatings do I have to take to become a star like you?!"
Bae Joon-sik: "..."
……
soon.
The food we ordered was brought to us one by one by the waiter.
Although Lee Doo-hwan doesn't drink, it would be inappropriate for him not to say anything in this kind of situation.
So he substituted tea for wine!
As he slowly stood up, everyone else quickly stood up as well.
"I'll pay for everything today, so eat as much as you like."
As they were talking, Lee Doo-hwan glanced at a bowl of soup and rice on the table, which he didn't know who had ordered it, and his brows furrowed immediately.
"Damn it, who ordered the main course? You can get full just as easily by eating beef!"
Don't try to save me money, you hear me?!
Upon hearing this, several younger members immediately spoke up.
"Thank you, Doo-hwan hyung!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Lee Doo-hwan frowned.
"Thank you is what we Chinese say. What should you say here?"
The group looked at each other, and finally Cuzz, a big fan of Lee Doo-hwan, was the most perceptive and spoke up.
"loyalty!!!"
As Cuzz spoke first, the remaining juniors looked at each other in confusion.
However, with someone already taking the lead, they could only follow suit and speak up one after another.
