That game was LoL. They thought he was sleeping, because people do that in the cafes.

You can just enter internet cafe's and get to work. They'll keep the time for you and when you get off you pay up.
I once entered an internet cafe and paid for one hour, but they forgot to register it. After 3 hours I got up and asked if my hour wasn't over already and they were like 'yeah you've been here for 3 hours'. After the misunderstanding was cleared I only got to pay for 1 hour

Heard a similar story a few years ago about another guy in Korea that died in a internet gaming cafe. In his case he had a strong addiction and wasn't taking care of himself. Spent 18+ hours gaming at the cafe and ate vending machine junk food consistently.

Judging from the descriptions of his body placement, he died without pain or misery. He died doing something he enjoys; chances are it was his favourite hobby in general. To die whilst utterly content, in another realm, transcending the pain and sorrow that this world brings and being blissfully unaware of what's to come next. To me that sounds like the kind of way I want to go.
