Episode Synopsis

This episode covers the 2010 book KOREA'S ONLINE GAMING EMPIRE by Dal Yong Jin. We also use the article IT ALL STARTED WITH A BANG: THE ROLE OF PC BANGS IN SOUTH KOREA'S CYBER CULTURES by Inkyu Kang, which was taken from the book THE KOREAN POPULAR CULTURE READER.
In the first part of the episode, it's just me talking about the rise of the gaming industry in Korea thanks to PC Bangs and government investment in highspeed internet. Then, my brother, an actual gamer (unlike me), joins me to discuss his favorite subject - gaming!
