I can't wait to see Korean BW fans rage when Yellow announces his switchover to SC2. :D

And no, he ain't a commentator/caster material.

He's either gonna retire from progaming altogether, or switch over to SC2 by persuasions from BoxeR, NaDa, and other old-school progamers from his generation.

I for one, am excited from this news.


You're ridiculous. I wish people would stop saying this. He's not switching, cos he's not desperately gasping for money/fame/acceptance.

Sorry, but all these stupid comments drive me to it. Keep them to yourself.

This decision makes complete sense for Yellow- better to quit now, and be remembered as the awesome part of the scene which he was, than to fade into obscurity and eventually fall off the edge of the map. Good decision, GGs Yellow.


I'm quite surprised that quite alot of people here actually take DES seriously.

They are a complete joke among the Koreans.

Edit: Also, "이제는 또 다른 시작이라는 이름으로 새로운 도전을 해볼까 합니다."

This obviously means that he's gonna start anew, one way or another.

Yellow is quitting because he's clinging onto the shelters of his team and fans. Or so he says. He's embarassed because of that and wants to quit.

But really, what he is letting go is his passion to compete in competitive gaming. He has plenty of opportunity in other games. It doesn't have to be brood war. But because brood war is a national pride in korea, I don't think he will switch to any game. It's been showned how he disliked boxer moving to SC2 in one of his interview. Still at a very young age to let go of the passion probably won't get you anywhere. He could be a coach like some people said, but it seems he's leaving the scene indefinitely? Look at boxer, he's still playing and doing fine. (NASL)

Hope all goes well, even though I wish he kept playing... whether its starcraft or even tekkan(lol). Dunno what his new goal is, he really didn't say. But stay out of the gutters, haha.

YELLOW NOOOOOO!!! You can't do this what about your comrades and bros, I'm of course talking about Reach and Nalra. They were all so close and bros ;___; This really comes to mind when I think about Yellow leaving Reach and Nalra.

Everytime KT would play any team, I would always say "They're going to put Yellow to day, just wait and see." ;;_;;

HONG JIN HO!!! My absolute favorite zerg.

I thought that the title was something like-Yellow announces he'll always play from now on in proleague, 'cause the word horror can't even describe the other KT zergs.

The only zerg player I ever liked. The Storm Zerg. The main reason why I have the KTF sign on my profile. It will never be the same without you. If there's gonna be some 'best wishes' book or something, I'd definitely want to contribute. GL HF Yellow...you'll be missed.

was just watching those vids of him from 10 years ago and even tho compared to sc games now it was what most ppl think of as lame, it brought back memories.. they were pretty epic coming from that point of view. I didn't watch any games this last year but I was happy when he beat Boxer, Jaedong, and Bisu after his long decline. The Storm Zerg will never be forgotten.

Since yellOw quit, I'm not even bothering to consider having the KT team as my favourite team. He was everything the Zerg had... a patient person with a dream. In my honest opinion, the best Zerg player ever.

dam, he was my fav player when i first got into the scene in 2004. He is the reason i played zerg and follow ktf. i hope he does well in his life, he finds what he is looking for. Thank you for all the entertainment, Jinho, The Storm Zerg!!

Edit: This makes me all the more annoyed that kt didnt beat skt1 last season of wl =/
