RIP s2, you had an inspiring run as an SKT Zerg Nice article, although alittle overdramatic at points given the subject matter it's all good though.

When you think about it, compulsory military service, while initially seen as a burden, can be seen in the long run as a benefit for Korean players. Because you spend most of your life in a team house with little to no education, the military is a great way of establishing life and social skills over relatively short period of time.


I like this perspective, I really wonder how the players transition after retirement. Army is useful in this case as a buffer back to, in a sense, normalcy.

"The match-fixing scandal was the most difficult time for me. E-sports was caught in a storm, and recovering would necessarily take a long time. Even now it is hard to bear. That event cut down the e-sports industry and even continues to influence many of the current problems today. The match-fixing scandal, which made all progamers worried for the future was my most difficult moment."

Yeah made me sad too
Great interview. Hope he is doing fine in the future.
