This is so sad, you were my favourite player when I had just picked up the game.

Good luck in the future.

This is really sad for me. I never had anything to do with Brood War and started to get involved in the SC-community shortly after SC2 was realeased. But there was one thing I came to know about very quickly: the rivalry with the koreans. Even thought I didnt know any of the Brood War backround I was fascinated by the whole idea of Korea vs. Foreigners etc. You could just "feel" that it was of importance.

I dont remember exactly when, but very short time after I started playing the GSL Open was announced, the sheer amount of price money was incredible itself but there were also foreign players to play in it. They quickly became my heroes! TLO hellioning himself through TvT, learning about who Artosis was and seeing him play, Idra wearing the leather jacket und then there was the Gorilla Terran!

Your GSL runs as of late 2010 and early 2011 made grateful that I was beeing introduced to SC2. You could really feel that everybody was so excited about one foreigner stomping the koreans in their home country! I remember so many times rushing home from uni or simply not attending at all, to watch your games in GSL. Such an amazing time. I remember your banshee having more kills than your opponent had workers. Or the time you beat MC on LT with mech and everybody thought that you made mech viable vs. protoss with that game. Good old times! Oh and your beanie, I bet half the people on TL wanted to have one aswell just to look more jinroesk! I bet if I give it little more time more happy memories will pop up.

To sum it up: Jinro, Gorilla Terran, my SC2 experience would not be the same without you. Thank you for all the amazing memories that will accompany thoughout my life. I hope will you find what ever you are looking for!

THANK YOU

Good luck in the future with whatever you choose to do. Was always a pleasure watching you play and watching your run through GSL which was simply awesome.

I think it will be good for both him and TL, if You struggle with something as long as he did, is better to move on to other endeavors. Best of luck.

PS. i Wonder if TL with shorten thier rooster or find replacment soon.
Pathetic Greta hater.

You made me feel proud to be Swedish when you were showing amazing games. I think you are making the right choice, and I agree with Incontrol; if you no longer enjoy it, then it's time to quit. You will now become a legend of SC2!

Sad to see Jinro retire. After his tremedous debuts people starting doubting his capicity and were really harsh on him. I was one of them but it was only because we expected so much of him.

Jinro will be remember as the first, and for now, only foreign player to reach the semi-finals in the GSL not once but twice. What he did was unbelievable at the time and still is to some extent.

Thank you Jinro, I hope you can find not only success but hapiness in your new life!

I was never a fan or something like that, but this text made me quite sad. Good luck in the future.
