South Korean Presidential Candidate Touts 'Play of the Game'

It's no secret that South Korea is a hotbed of gaming culture, particularly wrapped around Blizzard titles. South Korean presidential candidate, Sim Sang-Jung, has released a new political ad with an Overwatch theme. The ad shows her shutting down political rivals in debates, enough so that they are literally rendered speechless, thereby earning "Play of the Game" status due to her silencing "kills".

While sitting squarely on her official YouTube channel, it remains unknown whether or not this was an officially sanctioned political ad. Regardless, it's a winner, though reports indicate that Sim Sang-Jung is trailing the current front-runner, Moon Jae-In, in a bid to take over the office from ousted former president Park Geun-Hye.
