For all we know, he could've had a family crisis. No one knows except NonY and the coaches at eSTRO. It's sad to see him go, but I really believe he had a legitimate shot at this one, so it's upsetting. Good luck in the future, NonY.

He had such a great advantage and dumped it all T.T many others would kill for that...

But it's understandable, I wish you the best NonY!

I was hoping that Nony would do something good for progaming but I'm glad he gave it a shot.

Spoilered interview


+ Show Spoiler +
Artosis: So NonY, as the headline says, you have left eSTRO and gone back home. Many people are wondering, why?

NonY: I returned home for personal reasons.


Artosis: What about the eSTRO team? Was it just too hard to deal with the Korean way and language barriers?

NonY: The eSTRO team was great. The Korean way was definitely difficult but it wasn’t too difficult. I was getting better every day. And despite the language barrier, I could still accomplish the two most important things: discussing strategy and making friends. It’s because the eSTRO team is full of great guys.


Artosis: How do you feel about your progress while you were in Korea? Are you satisfied with your time there?

NonY: I feel like my skill didn’t improve by a huge amount, although it certainly did improve. What’s more important is that I learned how professionals train and that should help me a lot in the future. I’m definitely grateful for that opportunity. I got more out of my time in Korea than I ever imagined so I’m beyond satisfied.


Artosis: I know eSTRO has an open invitation to you to return, do you see yourself coming back to Korea any time soon?

NonY: Not in the near future.


Artosis: So now that you are done with Korea, does that mean you are done with StarCraft? Will we still see you playing in the foreigner scene? Any plans for StarCraft 2?

NonY: I’m going to cut back on my practice time a lot, but the plan is to at least maintain my current skill. I’m not ready to give up on eSports yet. I’ll be participating in any SC event I can and I’ll do my best to play SC2 full-time when it comes out.


Artosis: Well NonY, I’m sad to see you go, but wish you the best in your new endeavors. Do you have any closing words?

NonY: Thank you. I’d like to thank everyone at eSTRO and IEG. I’d especially like to thank all my fans for supporting me. I’m sticking to eSports so look for me in the future!
