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.

You might want to make sure you aren't pitifully misinformed before you arrogantly demand a thread be closed, in a douchey fashion I might add.

Yes, he has dual citizenship - he is both American and Canadian. He said if they had a flag that was half and half, he would use that.

HuK is Canadian his father is Canadian. Americans started claiming he was American when he won DreamHack because they wanted to have a Champion represent them. Though Canadians are American fyi.

He is both, both with dual-citizenship and self-identified as Canadian-American. He is also a foreigner in Starcraft2, not a Korean, but why bother elaborating when substantive and reasoned posts made about this will (and already have been) just be ignored by more people who fail to read prior posts/threads ._.

He's born in Canada so that means he is a CANADIAN. If he was born in America then he is AMERICAN.

So you're agreeing that he's American right?

I think better question to have is, "Is he considered Korean when he competes in foreign tournament?"
"Is he considered foreigner when he competes in GSL?"

That's soooo not true...

I was born in San Bernardino and stayed there a whooping 3 months that I can't even remember and I lived in Montreal, Qc, Canada for 99.9% of my life. Eventho I have both citizenship if you ask me if I'm canadian or american... i'll tell you that I'm canadian with advantage! Hell my main language isn't even english even if I was born of an English mother!
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

I'm fairly sure he has a canadian passport, so that is just about it, he is canadian. Though he has been living in korea for so long now that he will turn into a korrean anyway, judging by his recent performance he already is half korrean anyways.

He's a dual citizen but chooses to associate himself with Canada.
Done.

He's a korean when he wins. He's a foreigner when he loses. That way he can be used as a stick to beat the foreigner community with in LR threads no matter what!
