Faker attracts Korean entertainment fans to be dissatisfied: e-sports are favored and exempt from military service, why are K-pop BTS members inevitable?
[Pay attention to the afterimage game, see the latest information of LOL, today let's talk about Faker's exemption from military service]
After LCK won the gold medal in the LOL event of the Asian Games, I believe that everyone has not forgotten the hurdle of "military service", unlike our LPL division, LCK players need to face the stage of military service, for a very simple example, passerby King Doma stopped broadcasting because of military service. For professional players, time is life, the golden period of the profession is not a few years, if you suspend the game to serve in the military, it will greatly affect your career. Therefore, many players will try their best to postpone military service and try to achieve a good result at the peak of their strength.
For esports players, there is indeed a way to exempt them from military service, that is, to win the gold medal at the Asian Games, and it is clear that several Korean players who participated in this edition have done it, and can be exempted from military service in a positive way. But this result has triggered some Korean entertainment fans, who have complained about Faker's exemption from military service, believing that e-sports players have been given preferential treatment, claiming that members of the popular group BTS, which brought Hallyu to the world, still have to serve in the military, why don't they use it? In this regard, it even compares the contributions of the two to South Korea, and the main thing is a disbelief.
For this phenomenon, the afterimage feels that the rice circle is still a little too much, not so much comparing e-sports with Korean entertainment, but comparing Asian Games sports athletes and stars, which is completely incomparable. If the previous LOL events, such as S race and MSI, are competitions in the LOL circle, then the Asian Games are events between countries, which can be watched on CCTV on TV. While it can win glory for the country, but on the other hand, it is only a star fan group, and Korean entertainment's spit on e-sports players is actually unnecessary, rather than questioning the rules, it is better to let BTS members also win an Asian Games gold medal.
Of course, it is understandable that they complained, after all, there have been a lot of outrageous things on the Korean Internet in order to exempt them from military service. In fact, there are other rules for them to be exempted from military service, such as: failing the medical examination, insufficient height, and excessive tattoo area. For this reason, South Korea even set off a wave of tattoos for a while, trying to evade military service, but the official also stopped this behavior in time, and accused the person with this malicious tattoo of "deliberately destroying the body to escape military service", which made the tattoo frenzy turn over.
In addition, there are some popular artists who used their "banknote ability" to manipulate the physical examination report, so as to desert military service, and finally apologized in public after the matter was revealed. There are even Korean singers who did not hesitate to extract 12 teeth to avoid military service, using civil service examinations, vocational training, overseas travel and other reasons to forcibly delay enlistment for seven years, and finally sentenced to six months in prison for false delay in enlistment. Taking these examples, the afterimage wants to tell you a point: exemption from military service is a very difficult thing on the Korean Internet.
In fact, to be honest, from the perspective of the bystander, this kind of thing does not exist preferential treatment, and it is not so simple. The Asian Games are held once every four years, and four years is enough to change the strength of a professional athlete, and almost every participant has only one chance to participate. And it's hard enough to get in, let alone win the championship, and even if you do, there are only a maximum of 6 players, and the number of places is not much. This belongs to the clear price, the difficulty is not low, how to give preferential treatment, it is really not good, I will also win a gold medal.
