Since everyone is arguing about whether if flash is bonjwa or not, I will write something. The word 'bonjwa' was created when sAviOr had won the OSL and became Royal Roader. And because of the force from sAviOr, people started calling him bonjwa along with boxer, iloveoov, and nada. Iloveoov used to be worst enemy from Zerg players during that time and nada had won most OSLs and MSLs. And boxer was just considered as legend and a royal roader, but he was still good. Now the reason why flash isn't called as bonjwa is that he wasn't a royal roader. I don't know why Koreans say that is the reason but they say it is the main thing. I know the iloveoov and nada wasn't royal roader too but somehow they were considered as bonjwa. But after few years the bonjwa was pretty meaning less. Because there were now new best players like Bisu, Stork, Jaedong, and Flash. And people started talking about whether to put Flash into bonjwa line or not. But other people said he has won other individual tournament than any other bonjwas. So people started saying flash is not a bonjwa. Flash is God. So bonjwa became pretty much just a legend now. So in conclusion, flash is not bonjwa. Flash is considred as God. ( not sure now flash playing like god though from both BW and SC2). PS: Jaedong is not considered as bonjwa either.

Also in Korean society neither of these players( Bisu, stork, Jaedong, flash) are considered as bonjwa. I don't know who edited bonjwa thread that flash is also bonjwa but no one considers him as bonjwa in Korea. Flash is just considered as a God.

Both NaDa (OSL) and Oov (MSL) were royal roaders.

No idea why is considered a "God" he had a very good year when everyone else was playing badly, and after the others came out of their slumps he has not won a thing.

Well did not know that but now that proves why flash is not a bonjwa!! All the bonjwas were royal roaders. Flash is not a royal roader. Sorry for the wrong data and thanks for correcting it.

bonjwa is a self referential royal We.

Call it what you will, Flash has been more dominant than any other player by a wide margin. He's been the best player for over two years.

I would say that Fantasy > Flash in the past 1.5 years.

And Jaedong > Flash up to NATE MSL.


So NATE MSL @ 2010 to the November of that year was Flash's reign.

Huh? Flash wiped the floor with jaedong in the EVER OSL @ 2009, kicked Calm's ass, and then movie.

Besides, No one has ever made 3 consecutive dual finals, never mind winning 4 of titles, then flying to LA, saving Kal's life, and winning wcg, then coming back and winning another MSL, and the PL for his team, on top of having nerve damage and subsequent surgery, then a 15W streak in the PL.

I'd say his reign ended after dear beat him.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure no one else did anything quite so specific as that.
If you are not Bisu, chances are I hate you.

Saving Kal's life cemented his bonjwa status, according to Korean rules.

Wow, seeing someone winning a platinum or diamond mouse in that manner would be quite... what's the word I'm looking for here? Disconcerting I guess. It's going to really devalue anything anyone has achieved up untill now.
