This is the story of Lee Sang-hyeok, a top professional player from China, who accidentally travels to a parallel world in South Korea and then returns to the LPL! He was surprised to discover that in South Korea, esports had long been integrated with entertainment; the esports scene was the entertainment scene, and esports stars were entertainment stars. Every top professional player could receive various high-priced endorsements and release MAD albums, just like those superstars. In this story, professional esports teams such as Samsung's twin stars, KTA's two powerhouses, and SKT will appear! Idol groups, and of course, those adorable nine members will also be included!

The restaurant doesn’t take reservations. You have to queue in person, and countless people fly in on private jets just to get in line. Of course, there’s no place to park your plane or your car.

"In the far East, there exists a strange little shop that has repeatedly refused Michelin three-star ratings. The prices are exorbitant; a bowl of fried rice with soup costs 288 RMB, oh, and it includes a side of kimchi, yet even so, long queues form. They don't accept reservations, only walk-ins, and countless people arrive by private jet specifically to queue, though of course, no parking or landing spots are provided. The service is appalling; customers are expected to serve themselves, clear their own dishes, and even wipe the tables! Good heavens, this owner must be insane." —Michelin Guide Foodie group, everyone is welcome to join and chat: 526149614 Dragon Tiger Fight Main Group: Subscribe to all accounts to join! 577415455 Cai Mao appears unpredictably~
