As the new season approaches, every move of the LPL teams and players is being closely monitored by the gaming community. Recently, during a rare sighting of Suning members outside their Gaming House, SofM once again became the “center of attention”.
While other team members were bundled up in puffy jackets and warm sweatpants to combat the harsh weather in Northern China, where temperatures sometimes drop below 0 degrees Celsius, SofM confidently strolled out in a loosely worn puffy jacket, shorts, and slippers.
This image has become a “trademark” of Suning’s jungler, but considering that China is experiencing one of the coldest winters in history, his choice of outfit seems like a declaration of “fashion over weather”.
Many gamers even expressed concern that SofM’s outfit might not be good for his health, but they were quickly reassured by die-hard fans of Duy Cau Giay that SofM is already quite used to it.
Of course, for Vietnamese gamers, the weather in the North is enough to make us think only of warm blankets and trying to dress as warmly as possible, let alone the much harsher weather in Shanghai. But SofM seems unaffected by the outdoor temperatures, leaving many gamers wide-eyed and agape:
– Wearing shorts and slippers in -6 degrees Celsius, I’m speechless…
– Do Vietnamese people not know what cold is?
>>> When I was in college, I saw many Vietnamese students abroad also wearing shorts in winter.
– Is he lazy to wash his socks, so that’s why he dresses like this?
– Oh my! I’m under the blanket with the heater on, and just looking at this photo makes me feel cold all over.
– Does the “slipper addiction” spread?
SofM’s “eccentric” fashion sense is just as recognizable as his jungler style, having become a familiar image within the Chinese gaming community. Even during the negotiations of Suning and SofM’s contract, the team posted a shadowy photo of the players on Weibo.
Fans didn’t take more than half a second to recognize SofM’s silhouette with his signature “slippers” and familiar shorts. This is also how SN subtly confirms that SofM is still part of the team. As for fans, the story of SofM’s “shorts in winter” has even become a legend with the narrative: “The jungler doesn’t know what cold is”.
