Hm, i think he is either swedish or german, since his biggest titles (DH and HSC) were won there. So for starcraftpurposes you can say, that for sure those countries defined him most.
Just to throw in a few more nationalities....

You can't be "half" American or Canadian. You're either a citizen of those countries or you aren't. HuK is a citizen of both, so he's American and Canadian.

Where was HuK born?

Canada.

End of story. Only reason Americans want to claim HuK is American is because they don't have a national champion of their own to cheer on.

Move along, close thread.

How about you ask him what he wants to be considered, then respect him as such.

Starcraft wise he is Korean, not a foreigner.

Actually on his http://www.teamliquidpro.com/liquidhuk biography, it says Chris “HuK” Loranger was born in May 1989 in St. Petersburg Florida.

So from this, he is obviously born in America. He is American.

Huk is no Canadian or American, he's a Xel'naga!!
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
