I browse these forums and read a lot of information, while rarely posting. As such, it implies the importance of what I want to say. Jinro, have been a big fan since I started playing/watching SC2 back when it was still beta, and I, like many fans, appreciate your dedication. Best wishes to your future and hope like hell I see you at an event some day where we can just talk about the game as fans. Cheers!

You should of quit when you where on top. Plus people tend to only remember you for your GSL semi final performances and forget, all you BM once you started losing. Also who can forget that time when you where acting on HuK's behalf in that group selection thing. You where acting like you where hot shit and you owned the place even though you were fairly knocked out to code B. I mean do you have to act like a total ass to gom tv just because you haven't been getting the results.

Good luck in the future Jinro! Sad to see you go; but glad that you're doing what you feel is best for you. I'm sure anyone with the work ethic necessary to be a pro-gamer will be able to succeed anywhere else they work at life.

It's sad to see this ending actually happen. Thanks for all the great games and won't forget all the moments you've given us.

Hey Jinro, I remember our series we had at MLG Raleigh in 2011. It was a close series 1-2, and you were pretty much the best player I have ever played against in a tournament. Although I lost, it was a series I will never forget. I have retired as well, but I just want to thank you for the kindness at the MLGs you showed me and the great games we had.

Thanks for all you've done for the community and game, Jinro. This news hits me like a pallet of bricks, but I'll get over it. Here's to the future, man, may it be even more kick-ass!

Jinro

You have always been an inspiration to me. I don't really know what else to say besides that. The words feel like they can't even contain the full meaning of what I'm trying to say. I don't know what this feeling within me is that tells me I need to write this, or that makes me smile to feel like I've known you, if only briefly, and if only distnatly.

Thank you for being you, and for doing what you've done, and for moving forwards and doing what you plan to do.

You're a good guy. We will be diminished in your absence, but we are greater, better, and more than we were before for having known you.

May fortune care well for you, and may you have a good life~

Honestly, this was overdue. Jinro is an awesome figure in the community and I appreciate everything you did for Starcraft in that avenue. But as a player it'd been hard to watch for over a year now. GL in your future endeavors.
