Phew if JaeDong retired the starcraft scene would be screwed.
Hope is the first step on the road to dissapointment

Yay! I was worried Starcraft would be robbed of it's golden boy...

Although I was really hoping he would end up on STX or something.

Wait, so the original offer was 140 mil/year plus bonuses bumping it up to 200, and the new offer is 150 plus bonuses up to 200?

That's a netizen comment, it's not official.

Well, I'm glad he resigned. The $ amount he resigned for is kinda disappointing, but at least we won't be missing the best player on the scene next year.
God Bless

Thank you for translating, this is such an important piece of news, really really happy that JD re-signed and is able to play next season. As selfish as it was, I didn't want him to retire...who really did. Well I hope the rumor of him getting paid 200 is at least true, 140/150 is too low, hopefully he still has those bonuses where he wins games he gets more money.

Now JD gets to play and stay on his team, lets hope his team gets their game on and lifts some of the burden.
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

The official details on his contract aren't out till the 3rd so take any rumors of what he received until then with a grain of salt.

I'm glad he's coming back but his salary is a joke.

Are you telling me no team would have paid Jaedong 250M if it weren't for the ridiculous Kespa rules?

Such bullshit, I'll be cheering hard for JD from now on because of this.

I wouldn't take any of the salary rumors on the internet seriously, it's like taking youtube comments seriously
