Yesterday (the 25th), the official send-off ceremony was held for the South Korean national esports team competing in the 2026 Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games.

League of Legends (LoL) star Faker (Lee Sang-hyeok), heading to the Asian Games stage for the third consecutive time, expressed his resolve, saying, "I truly feel the weight of responsibility as a national representative, and I will prepare thoroughly without a single moment of complacency."

Kang Sung-hoon, head coach of the fighting game national team, showed confidence by stating, "The youngest member of our team is 40 years old," adding, "In fighting games, experience tends to give you a slight edge."
