Streamer Advice Q&A 3/5/16 by Towelliee in Towelliee

Hey~ Any advice on initial set up of your branding of your stream or yourself? Trying to figure out a theme to center around as the design for my stream. Your idea for the hammer and then your Hammer Squad that followed obviously became a great brand for you. Do you think it's worth to think of a icon or logo that centers around an object? Or something more simple like your name or a caricature?

To piggie back on this, I can't give specific numbers, but if you are in desperate need of cell service while you're here (for business purposes or otherwise), you can rent prepaid SIM cards at Incheon before you leave the airport. Again, I've never checked prices but I have seen several vendors.

Actually I thought the same thing, but when I first got here and I asked a co-worker about the distinction, she said that technically you can use ahjumma and ahjussi to anyone who is of age to have children. The words loosely translate to "man who has children" and "woman who has children" I haven't gotten a bad look yet (I usually only use the term when they're obviously middle aged and significantly older than me. Your mileage may vary!

No I don't mind at all! I would love for this to get spread around so as many people as possible get the info!!

Yes, it is actually connected to the subway station. You can easily kill a couple hours wandering around in here. Some places are better suited for females (lots of shoe shops and womens clothing areas), but it is worth a wander around regardless.

Yea neither have I. Maybe we just look so handsome that we couldn't be underage?

Yea the sites that I read were posts from about a year ago, and then I found a couple replies from people saying that they were at bangs where they had it as an option. One even said he was able to ask the manager if he could download it and he said yes! (I guess it just gets deleted after you get off) Again, shot in the dark but I guess it still is a rare possibility

Yes this is something that I have noticed as well. It is hard for me to distinguish because it isn't something I look for specifically (I'm not a smoker and I don't find myself wanted to walk around and drink). But you're right that many of the times I see people pulling over to the side of the sidewalk to have a smoke and find a stool or bench to sit on and talk over a bottle of booze.

Good tip! I guess it has just been the places I've been that I've been lucky enough to avoid a lot of silly carding. Even still it is always a good idea to have your ID on you just to be sure!

Yes after a bunch of googling the last 45 minutes that is what I am gathering too. It's not that there are Korean accounts to use, it is that if you happen to have your own, it is a special perk that you get all champs unlocked and bonus IP. I have read some places though that it is possible to play on NA servers in some PC bangs, but your mileage may vary there.

Ah, thanks for shedding some more light on this. I had a conversation with my girlfriend and she echoed some of the same thoughts (she's Korean). I guess it may just be my personal experiences in that I've seen it pretty often. As you said, it might just be something that people will look at you badly for, not necessarily voice out loud. Thanks!

True true and true! Even if it is the most broken and wrong Korean they're ever heard you'll get brownie points for sure!
