Such a loss for the pro scene...

Best wishes in the future, Hiya. Hope you and your family prosper together. You were one of the brightest stars - thanks for all the games

RIP, Hiya's dad... Not having a family photo or even family vacation really2 sucked. He surely feels terrible...not getting accepted into a team just adds salt to his wounds.
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

Thanks for the translation, wasn't what a lot of us wanted to hear, but at least HiYa is having fun with BW as a hobby now. If he keeps on streaming it will still be very nice to tune into.

RIP Hiya's Dad.

Btw, anybody notice how much better he looks? Much better than his typical hunchback, mouth wide-open hiya : ) All the best with his family, career and surgery!!! He is definitely an entertainer for the fans, rather than a result oriented one.
SC2 is to BW, what coke is to wine.

I remember my friend filmed my face when I was playing supersmashbrothers, and it seems that some people look dumb when they are really focused on something... Let's just say I was quite shocked at how I looked and deleted the video immediately lol

But hiya if you don't come to SC2 how can you and MVP team up to form team magikarp?
I'll miss hiya I would have loved to see him get picked up by a team (Woongjin could always use a good terran right?) but I hope he enjoys his life.

I wish someone on TL could put a book together of TL-ers saying thank you to him and stating their favorite Hiya moment. If we can do it for JD's birthday then Hiya def deserves this.

If TLers could make this happen, I could look into delivering it to him personally... I live in Pittsburgh PA right now but I'll be going to Korea on December 10th.. I'm terribly un-artistic, though, so it would just a be a scrap book with comments...

He was a pretty influential and good pro, it's sad to see how tough life for pro is if you're not one of the very top player.
Pretty wise and sad interview from Hiya. I wish him a happy life, and I must say I have a lot of respect for him.
Many thanks for the interview.

Look at some of NeverGG's projects or the Zergling for Jaedong for ideas, I would so be down to help out or contribute.

I don't think it has anything to do with losing to ForGG specifically. I think he just took that moment to reflect on how much time it would take to reclimb the ladder and become a top Progamer again.

Weighing the timesink that progaming is versus the importance family is to Hiya made it an easy decision I think. It's sad that he is retiring but he's happy now, and that's what matters.
