What a world we live in, where $160,000 a year is somehow slavery...

It may not be fair market value, but don't call it slavery. That's just silly.

The Dong makes $160,000 USD/ year to play StarCraft?! HOLY... DREAM JOB!

Bisu makes almost double that, and Nada's had a contract for almost double that since 2007.

If those netizen comments are true, I must say I'm kind of disappointed. JD's parents basically caved, and Jaedong's still underpaid (though not nearly as much as before).

Obvious hyperbole, the point is that Jaedong is still underpaid by a fair amount (he could reasonably be making double that offer). Even a lowball estimate based on players that aren't Bisu or Flash still would put his value somewhere around 160-180M Won (I think it was said somewhere that Calm makes about 130M).

Yay more stork raping jaedong. Good for u jaedong.
Honestly jaedong should be 200 mil ~ 250 mil won with 50 mil won bonus to 250 mil ~ 300 mil won.

Although I am not the biggest Jaedong fan, this is great news for Starcraft. To have one of the top players taken out during his prime would've been a shame. Hopefully this news will create even more appreciation for our favourite players and their commitment to Starcraft.

Because the 'official' release date for FA results is September 3rd

Well, at least that's what I think.

So now we have to wonder what Midas's and Hyun's fates are.. Hyun I could honestly care less for, but it would be a damn shame if Midas was forced to retire :l

Oh Jaedong...I wish you'd have come to Stars. We would have paid you buckets.

Glad you're playing, though.

There was no way they were going to let him get DQed on a technicality. Any other player but Jaedong right after he wins and OSL would have been screwed but there was just no way they were going to force him out now...
