EPTif i have the facts right, kespa basically made an impossibly rigid non-market "market" and left no fallback option, ie players that are not processed by the fa process entirely falls out of the pro ranks altogether. taken individually, each of these restrictions are expected from kespa. they want to control player wages through a nonmarket, but they also want to control the entire body of players through their "pro license" control. that control is meant to keep outside tournaments and money from competing with kespa related interests.
it so happens that a high profile player like jd, really the only player of interest in fa, didn't go through the designed pathway and come dislodged outside of kespa control.
they are going to catch hell for this, probably. and that is some ironic justice
