Fantasy playing table-tennis in his first public appearance since receiving Lasik surgery.



SKT T1's bespectacled trio, (T)Fantasy, (Z)Soo and (T)Ssak have all undergone Lasik surgery.

On the 15th-16th of March, all three players underwent surgery at a clinic in Seoul. Soo and Ssak had their surgeries on the 15th while Fantasy received his on the 16th of March, a day after participating in the Proleague Post-season Media Day.

Since their debut, the three players have felt uncomfortable wearing glasses while playing so they took the opportunity to receive surgery after the regular season ended. Although they feel a little awkward without glasses, they're satisfied with the results. Due to recent advances in technology, the recovery time from Lasik surgery has been reduced and the players were able to participate in an athletics meet organized for T1's Starcraft and Special Force 2 players at an SK Knights gymnasium near Yongin in Gyeonggi-do on 21st March.

"Although it's awkward removing my glasses, I feel refreshed and with clear vision, I'll practice even harder to capture the winner's trophy that has elluded us for 2 years", said Fantasy.

What, I actually thought that Fantasy pulled off those trademark red glasses really well! And Soo and Ssak seemed to also pull off the glasses look... These feels, what do I do with 'em. Guess all 3 of them didn't wanna look that nerdy anymore. We shall see if the glasses curse will follow through.

Thanks for the translation and notification Ryo!

Thanks for the info Ryo.

The three of them could've at least staggered the operations so I could get used to them one-by-one. I'm getting glasses withdrawal!

Weeiiird. Fantasy looks better with glasses O_O. Let's hope Soulkey never does such thing, his mega nerd glasses are epic.

Fantasy without glasses looks like dumbfounded MVP combined with the eyes of a magikarp. Don't know how I feel about this.

Lasik. Lasik everywhere!

Well, I found it jarring to look at new, glass-less Stork nowadays. I'm probably going to feel the same about new, glass-less Fantasy. I hope he doesn't slump as well.
