Woongjin Stars' (T)Light and (P)Flying have announced their retirement. Light stated that military service weighed into his decision, as well as other endeavors he hoped to pursue. Flying said he was not considering military service immediately, and planned to study English.

T_T When will the bad news end? I hope this doesn't mean Woongjin is disbanding, the sc2 scene has been shrinking way too fast...

By the time proleague starts, I would think all the bad news would be over... until then?

Not too sad about these retirements, shame Flying was never able to reach the heights some thought he could earlier on in HotS.

The downsizing of the Korean SC2 scene will continue, and it has to continue until we reach a sustainable level.

copied and pasted from the other thread:
with all these kespa pro retiring (and I am expecting a lot more soon to follow up due to age and military training etc), I wonder what will PL do soon.
the KR scene barely has any upcoming player now

I wonder how many more are going to retire considering the state of SC2 in Korea.
Best of luck to Light and Flying.

KR scene has plenty of upcoming players now. Those players aren't in KeSPA though, they're in the eSF.

While I feel all of those are very bad news, I hope before the proleague season starts we will see a few fresh people and new signings not just players rotating through teams.
