Fuck KT for never letting him play. At this rate, Reach is gonna go down the same route.

I hope he continues to be involved in progaming in some way.

My first live BW event was Blizzcon 2005. YellOw dominated. I remember his play really well to this day. It was absolutely awe inspiring for someone who hadn't watched live BW before, as he at one point checkmated Reach by sniping all of his observers and NARROWLY placing a lurker on a high ground above an expansion, just as the overlord was destroyed.

Farewell, you Zerg god.

TBH, this is one guy I do not wanna see in SC2.
SC2 already has boxer, nada and july. I hope he picks up a coaching job or something SC1 related.

Yellow, BW will never be the same w/o you :'(

omg NO !

Just after Moktira upolads his very first OSL and brings back some bittersweet memories, this happens...
No matter how many jokes about kong being #2, he was always #1 in my eyes, ever since coca cola OSL.
This is really sad news. It had to happen, but still.

Good luck Hong Jin Ho, no matter what you decide to do in your life !

Best of luck to you, Yellow, whatever your future may hold.
I joined TeamLiquid for TSL2 but I stayed for Nada's Body.

Man, I'm sad. I still remember his epic game on HBR vs Bisu, where Bisu was dominating every Zerg, and Yellow *seemed* like a washed up has-been. Game was so tense, one of the few I wasn't sad that Bisu lost.

Look on the bright side, at least KT won't be second in PL this year. Too soon?

You will be missed, Yellow.

I still remember that day very well. LR exploded that Yellow was owning Bisu (admittedly I was a little sad for bisu that day). But god damn that was an exhilarating game.
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
