I don't think he can go to SC2.
From what I understand, 임의탈퇴 states that if he does return to progaming, he has to return to the same team - SKT.
Not completely sure, though.

Kwanro is actually a really good player. Sad that he's so hated that everyone makes fun of him even when he "withdraws" from progaming, which most likely means retirement.
Even though this Proleague bullshit has been completely bogus, I really, really, really do not see how Khan can lose this. I swear I will kill myself if they do. - nesix before KHAN lost to eNature

Sad to see him leave, hope he will come back. Probably the only player I ever enjoyed seeing all in, kwanrolled!

Really that he was the one to make SKt1 the # 1 favorite for me again with him being in their lineup to make the team more stable. Sucks to see him go :| Hope hes happy with what he does

sc2 technically isn't 'progaming' under kespa eyes.
although i wouldn't be surprised if his progaming license would get revoked, if he were to go that path.

anyway, kwanro lost his touch when he left cj for woongjin. shame that he moved so many times to different teams. moving teams does more than what people think.

The term Kwanrolled was just too perfect. I loved how he could beat anyone by just making too many zerglings.

Kwanro will be missed.

Damn it!!!

13 games. We got 13 games out of kwanro (and 6 were for the osl). I hope he comes back, I was so excited when I heard we got him..

edit: @ op: Kwanro started his absence because of oral surgery, so that's why the article included dental care.

Ah man...I actually liked Kwanro and I was really happy when he joined SKT, then he disappeared and now he's gone T_T
I will miss his play style.
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

Kwanro was never really used anyways. He probably had tension with the coaches over it and decided to just take a break.

The only SKT player I liked.
I blame the coaches. That includes the one in charge of Woongjin.

Hopefully with a long break, he might decide to return to BW like Guemchi did.

Thezerg had so much potential at MBC and then he turned into a scrub after his transfer.

I agree. It was so much more exciting when he was on CJ. Why does SKT suck at handling Zerg players so much?

It's a really sad day. Kwanro was definitely a unique player. There is now this void that needs to be filled where Kwanro left.
Even during difficult times, when I sat down to play the game, there were times where it felt like god has descended down and played [for me].
