Posted on his fan cafe

Translation thanks to Wala.Revolution

After contemplating for a long time, I have decided to retire.

First I want to apologize to my fans.

I am a bit sad since it has been four years since I became a professional gamer and I have not won a title that I can be proud of. Ha ha ha.

Especially since I didn't perform well after transferring to Woongjin and carrying the momentum while I was doing well in eStro.

I tried my best for my fans, preparing for the MST but it didn't go my way. But I still find solace in that I had fun playing the game for once in a long time. ^^

I grateful towards the fans that always cheered me on even with disappointing results.

I hope you'll continue to cheer for Woongjin and those of you who bash it, stop. (TN: I think that's he's saying, stop the woongjin hate on the Korean forums and such)

I hope all of you stay healthy and have a merry life. Goodbye__


오랜 생각과 고민끝에 이제 은퇴합니다.

먼저 팬분들께 정말 죄송하다는 말 전하고 싶네요.

게이머경력도 4년차인데 내세울만한 타이틀도 따지못했고 여러모로 약간의 아쉬움은 들긴 드네요. ㅎㅎㅎ

제일 아쉬운 부분이 있다면 웅진팀에 와서 성적을 내지 못한 부분과 이스트로때 잘한 시절도 있었는데

그 부분을 계속 이어나가지 못한점이 아쉽네요.

그리고 오늘 서바이버경기 준비도 조금 하고 마지막까지 최선을 다하는 모습 보여드릴려고했는데

생각처럼 잘 안되더라구요. 그래서 만족한 부분은 오랜만에 게임을 웃고 즐기면서 했다는 점이에요^^

아무튼... 실망도 많이 안겨드렸는데 계속 응원 해주신 팬분들께 감사드립니다

앞으로 웅진 팀 많이 응원 해주시고 특히 웅진갤러리분들 그만좀 까셨으면 좋겠어요 ㅋㅋㅋ

항상 건강하시고 행복하시길 바랍니다. 안녕히 계세요__

(I'll be out, so someone translate and add to OP for me?)

After exiting the MSL Survivor prelims, all his schedule was over for this season and he seems to have made up his mind after that.

What? I know he hasn't been the "Proleague Terran" recently that he used to be, but this is odd. He just moved up in Kespa ranking to the top 30 as well.

Let us remember the peak of Really:

He's been performing really poorly. No this isn't my pun attempt. I actually liked him a lot.
Another one gone...
Damn. It's tough being a BW fan these days.

Wasn't there an interview a year ago where he mentioned that, if given a chance to go back and decide whether to be a professional gamer, he would rather not do it? I'm not really surprised by his move, cause I always seem to get the impression that he's just following through the motion like a job and does not possess the passion like some of the players.

Progamers are getting old. All those who don't have Boxer 30s gamer aspirations will be dropping like flies, no doubt. New blood should continue to be interesting to see though.

i think BW is increasingly becoming seen as a game where it wont survive by the point they reach 30. and they're only retiring from BW.

Whatt!? I even had him on my FPL and FMSL team, even though he isn't performing that well these past couple of months. Even though he's not that good, I still like watching his games .
Goodbye Really.
