[Spark TMC] Let’s discover the exciting world of "Esports" together. (Sep 10th 2026)

Hi, Spark的小火花們與各位朋友們大家好:

您知道最近剛在台北開唱的日本超人氣偶像山田涼介嗎？他不只是位優秀的歌手與演員，因為遊戲實力太強，他甚至還加入了日本頂尖的職業電競戰隊！原來我們日常接觸的手機遊戲或電玩，早已發展成連頂級明星都為之瘋狂的全球正式競賽了。

韓國的Faker更被譽為世界電競第一人, 更是接了一連串的代言.

但你知道, 電競不單純只是打電動, 還要強調訓練, 戰術, 以及團隊活動嗎專業的電競選手, 每天都要訓練10小時以上, 才能夠站上世界舞台, 電競, 比你想的要多更多!

本期會議我們一起來認識什麼是「電競（Esports）」。

從當紅日本偶像的跨界，到台灣平均 60 幾歲的阿公阿嬤組成戰隊登上舞台。現場也將透過輕鬆的即席問答，讓大家分享自己對這個新興潮流的看法。

無論您是天天手遊不離身，還是從來沒碰過電腦遊戲，這都是一場能讓您輕鬆長知識、開拓視野的小聚會，歡迎大家一起來共襄盛舉！

日期：9/10(四)

時間：19:30~20:30

地點：台北市北投區石牌路二段115號9F（石牌捷運站1號出口，步行約6分鐘即可抵達）

以下這兩題, 請與會的工作人員回答, 並且在會議前提早將您的答案傳給主持人

Q1: 台灣現在有一群 60、70 歲的阿公阿嬤組成戰隊，登上舞台學習新事物。大家常說『活到老，學到老』，您自己是如何在日常生活中，保持對世界的好奇心，並持續學習或服務身邊的人呢？

Q2: 像日本明星山田涼介，他不只演戲唱歌厲害，私底下還把遊戲打到專業等級。在現在這個時代，您如何看待一個人『跨界發展』、把興趣做到極致的態度？

Hi! Dear friends and Sparks,

Did you know that Japanese pop star Ryosuke Yamada, who just performed in Taipei, is also a professional esports player? He is an amazing singer and actor, but his gaming skills are so good that he was invited to join a top Japanese esports team! It turns out that gaming is no longer just a hobby—it has become a global sport that even superstars are passionate about.

In South Korea, a player named Faker is celebrated as the "King of Esports" and has landed countless major brand endorsements. But esports is more than just playing video games. It takes intense training, strategy, and teamwork. Professional players actually train for over 10 hours a day to make it to the world stage. Esports is so much more than you think!

In this meeting, let’s discover the exciting world of "Esports" together.

From Japanese idols crossing over to gaming, to Taiwanese grandpas and grandmas in their 60s forming their own team, we will explore it all! We will also have a fun Table Topics session where everyone can share their thoughts on this new trend.

Whether you play mobile games every day or have never touched a computer game, this is a cozy gathering to learn something new and expand your horizons. Come join the fun!

Date : Thursday, Sep 10th, 2026

Time : 7:30 PM – 8:30 PM

Address : 9F, No. 115, Sec. 2, Shipai Rd., Beitou Dist., Taipei City

(About a 6-minute walk from Shipai MRT Station Exit 1)

All assignment takers, please pick one of following questions and send your answer to Toastmaster of Evening before our meeting,

Q1: In Taiwan, a group of seniors in their 70s started their own esports team. As the saying goes, 'You're never too old to learn.' How do you keep learning and stay curious about the world in your daily life?

Q2: Japanese idol Ryosuke Yamada is a top singer, but he’s also a professional esports player. How do you feel about someone turning their hobby into a professional skill?

See you in Spark!
