Where does rate in comparison to guys like Nada, Bisu and Flash?
Bisu makes 250M Won, Flash around 200M. Can't remember where Nada's is now, though I think I remember him having made a 750M over 3 years deal in 2007.
are you serious? bisu makes 3.5 times more than JD? that is fucking ridiculous, oz should be bitch slapped 9 times in the face for being such cheap asses
Uhm, Jaedong made 60-70M (have seen both numbers, so I dunno), because it was an old 2 year long (or 3, I think it's 2 though) contract that was signed back when he was a good PL player, but nothing more (and nothing close to what he is now), so it was a reasonable contract.
ahh ok, that makes way more sense. i was wondering why there weren't massive complaints everywhere if jd made so much less than bisu... thanks for the info
We've got two more days before the FINAL decision right?
Obviously the team of OZ and the coach really need Jaedong, but assuming the corporation knows about this, do they care enough to put a new and expensive contract out a few seasons before SC2?

Yes, this 60M contract was m.b. 2 years old. But the value of this contract no one knew — before the Jaedong’s mom did not report it in her interview.
There's no real information on the terms of his contract or anything regarding his salary/conditions.
Only that in the end they came to an agreement and that Jaedong will continue as a Hwasung player.
whoa, that first line gave me a little shock
re-sign vs resign. i thought he resigned (quit). it's a good think he's not. im glad hes with oz, too
same here, I almost went wtf?? Give me a heart attack there for a sec... I mean if JD resigned... then the title for the best zerg player is up for grabs but phew... we need JD to bring the balance among all proteams and all....
Add me to the list of people who misread the title. As the shock subsides, it's replaced with something more bittersweet. Well... now JD is with Oz again, but, shit. Imagine if he had moved on and gotten on KT. Now, the chance of JD dominating the indivudal leagues is much less likely.

Same here.
We still don't know if he actually got a good deal or caved to corporate pressure, so I'm holding off on whether to call this a good thing or a bad thing.
