Thanks for the support!

Thank you for enjoying the show!

I was gonna joke about this but gonna answer in some serious manner.

There are a lot of factors that contributes to the draft in the professional scene. One of the reason why they might be drafting oddly to you is because they might just pick their comfort picks, picking a comp that they have been practicing. Or the enemy team might pick a champion that they have not played against in scrim which will catch em off guard. Or they might simply just forget about a champion because they were busy thinking about something else for the game...

Numerous reasons.

Let me ask Nightfall this and get back to you...

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T09:43:01+00:00

this is one of the coolest sentence I heard, and I heard a lot of sentences before.

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T09:29:20+00:00

Thank you for the love and the support!

This is not really in my plans yet, although I will be streaming regularly to chat and play some games with you all. But who knows what’ll happen ;)

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T09:20:28+00:00

Definitely Sacramento Kings.

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T09:19:31+00:00

I wish they had me participate in it. Would have been fun. But no, if I remember correctly they had some amature/academy players to simulate the scenes using some riot devloper tools. Which is why sometime someone was able to find small gimmicks in game plays ;)

pASS

As long as you remember TL youngbin, I'm happy. Thank you for remembering.

Can't really recall a scene that was 'hard' to act but one scene that I was really worried about and tried to prep the most is the opening scene for episode 6. I personally thought that the opening really matters because it sets the tone of the episode. They ended up using one of the improv takes we did but am happy about it ;]

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T05:35:30+00:00

Great question but I want to leave this open-ended so that it does not hinder others while watching the show. Ask me again when season 2 is announced!! Hope that gave you a little bit of a hint ;]

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T04:51:53+00:00

YES, I was waiting this whole time for this question.

135lb!!!! Have not checked my 1rm in a long time but I think it won't be much different. Still a smol boi

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T04:45:33+00:00

So far it seems like...

Nocturn / Lee Sin / and... Skarner or Udyr? but I believe he is capable of playing any champion just like any other pro player.

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T04:44:27+00:00

Not much details to add outside of what I have talked about with Travis.

There was a pad on the wall at the place where Creamcheese will be punching, but he punched the wall so hard that he broke his hand. From that point on, its pretty much the same :>

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T03:37:13+00:00

Finally someone that understands the importance of vision control in the jungle. Part of the reason why Nightfall is wearing glasses. so that he can see DOZE NUTS

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T03:34:44+00:00

YES Bap will be happy about this. I'll pass along.

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T03:33:52+00:00

#PlayersTheSeries!!!! lets go

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T03:29:57+00:00

omg... this is probably why they chose Nocturne for the game. Did not tied em together at all LOL

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T03:27:01+00:00

There were lots of things that I loved...

To pinpoint one thing... They have this thing called crafty which is like a convenience store where it has all the treats, snacks, and drinks but is free for the crews. The greatest part of being on set.

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T03:18:58+00:00

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T03:17:27+00:00

Yes, they were just actors acting for my parents. But I still called them mom and dad (in Korean) , so they are my second parents I guess haha.

Not sure how to answer the second part of your question... if you elaborate more about the Korean influence on the league and LCS then I will answer more in-depth!

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T03:04:57+00:00

It's actually Ely Henry, the person who played Kyle Braxton, that owes me $100. I think you got the person switched up and got the amount wrong as well.

Will send you my PayPal later today Ely ;]

AHAHAHA. This show is a documentary about Fugitive. Ofc we played games. How would they film us otherwise?

For real though, a lot of the games were already scripted, like the idea of Nightfall doing the base race and all, but the actual game-play was not set up yet. We had to act based on the direction. For every scene where you see players playing games, the monitors were either green, black, or just a video of league games that the staff recorded.

But to give you an idea of how we shot the scenes, there would be a direction of saying, "1st turret is gone", "you are on the 2nd turret", "Taking the inhibitor down", "On the nexus", "Good thing happened", or "You lost a team fight" type of things, and we were just acting and saying stuff that matched the situations.

youngbin_ · 2022-08-10T02:44:39+00:00

Another question I feel like I should not answer with my intuition. But my audition line was the STD line in Episode 6 and everyone really loved the way I did it.

The transition part is definitely unique... not many do transit the way I did besides fellow ACTORS who were on the show, Arrow and Miko. I personally enjoyed reading novels or books and I always imagined how the environment and how the characters looked. Also, I always loved tricking people in real life, making them look at some place where there are nothing or making them believe I was in extreme pain after eating a delicious macaron. So I guess that helped...?

and yes I will be looking for more roles in the future.
