Lee '(P)n.Die_aSam' Hyung-yeon, a former professional gamer who played for the Hanbit Stars (now Woongjin Stars) team passed away on the 22nd of December at the age of 20.

aSam made his debut in 2008 and after a brief period staying with the team during its transition from Hanbit to Woongjin, retired from the sport. A Protoss player, he is most known for playing against YellOw in the GOMTV Classic as well as playing teamplay matches with (Z)Child. After his retirement, he spent time teaching himself Japanese.

He had been undertaking medical treatment at a hospital in Daejeon after having an unspecified accident before his death. Former team mates and coaches have sent their respects and condolences to his family and friends.

Even if he wasn't a progamer, someone dying so young is so sad. RIP.

I hate to say it, but 'unspecified accident' probably means suicide.
