Statement from KT Rolster's Facebook page:

< Jung Ho, be well in heaven >

Hello,

Our Jung Ho left our side in the early morning today. To all of our fans, who pooled their blood credits and funds, to those who donated blood lately, thank you for always caring and cheering him on.

Please pray for Jung Ho so that he be bright, happy, and healthy on the other side.

Thank you



I actually really don't like how they mentioned heaven multiple times in that statement, but never once said a single kind or remorsful word about Violet.

The fucking guy died... how about "This tragedy is felt in our hearts and they'll be missed by the world and deeply by their friends and family" instead of "Thanks for giving blood dudes, have fun in heaven brah, I bet it's sick"


Would have been nice if they said something about his accomplishments or whatever but there isn't anything wrong with saying thanks to the fans for their support, and asking for prayers for Jung Ho (and presumably his family.) I think it was very respectful and tasteful to him, his fans, and his faith.


I understand what you're saying, but I can't agree with it. They're breaking the news of his passing, but if it wasn't for the actual words that confirm that the world lost a beautiful young life, it would be as if he was going on a holiday to Hawaii for a week and they were saying have fun there and thanks for those who donated to the trip...

You say, "presumably", they were asking for prayers for his family, but in actual fact, his family was never mentioned in the post either, and no acknowledgement was given to the future of the man they'll never see grow older.
I'm embarrased by my past actions and even more ashamed of my present thoughts and future endeavors to clear my name.

Man wtf I was surprised. I sat there dumbfounded thinking that this was some kind of sick joke. I remember not too long ago it looked as if he was recovering...

Then my wife saw his death being broadcasted on Korean news so that's when I knew for 100% that he's really gone. RIP Violet...

My favorite KT protoss... I didn't know him personally, but it's still tragic that such a great guy dies at such a young age. >,<

Ugh, this is just unreal. Poor guy. I really believed his recovery was going to go smoothly. It kills me that no matter how hard they fight, the good guys just can't win sometimes.

RIP. He sounds like a hell of a good person. 23 years well-spent.

I'm assuming he had AML (Acute Myelogenous Leukemia), which is the worst type of leukemia to have.. Chances of living more than 5 years after diagnosis of it are very, very slim due to how aggressive it is. For the people saying "I thought he was in recovery?".. Acute versions of leukemia can appear in remission and under control at one point, and then be severe and dangerous the next, so its very unpredictable. This is really, really sad.

You have to understand that this is a translated statement, sometimes the words to get mixed up in translation, as well as certain emotions being displayed differently. That and also each culture has different ways of talking about death, take that into consideration before judging their annoucment.

Also take into consideration that in all likelyhood, it was a PR guy who did this, not a coach or player, just someone hired to do PR. So sometimes in situations like this, a statement is rushed, and not very long. If you look at other statments KT posted yesterday, you'll se much longer and more elobrate statements.
