popular streamer KOREAN Terror, who runs C9 StarCraft Crew (You may know it as team that had Bisu,SoulKey, FlaSh), is in massive debt as he blew money on illegal overseas gambling in the Philippines in 2024. He borrowed money from a major donor at an insane 10% weekly interest rate to fund it.
His financial ruin accelerated in 2025 when he was hit with a $4.5 million tax penalty where he borrowed millions from his streamer buddies to keep it plugged.
It became worse and he borrowed $350k from a big donator who in exchange took 5% of C9 income. That donator introduced him to company that lead to deal for $1.5m loan to pay off his debts, but the funds never arrived.
As a result, he couldn't pay the girl streamers in his streaming crew, leading one of them to expose the situation publicly.
This lead to Terror announced he will turn himself over to the police for his illegal gambling activities and debt situation.
Currently, he's well over $7m in debt and his C9 sc uni crew disbanded, leaving Bisu, Hyuk, YooN, SoO, 910, Free, MC, and Shuttle out of uni. (Thanks @einx6156 for more info below)
Yes, Terror is huge streamer, often getting 20-40k+ viewers regularly. Yes, he can pay those debts off if he at any point, stopped and screwed his head on since he clearly generates enough to have $4.5m in taxes alone.
But he was type to instantly gamble everything away as soon as money came in and was buying his kid $5k parrot, 20k ring for his girlfriend while in huge debt and not paying it back.
+bonus, $5k parrot
