Some people said he did it so he could dodge the Korean army draft, But this is not confirmed.
Well i doubt this, as he said he's willing to join US army if i remember correctly. Or maybe the korean army thing came too early for him!

Damn... that would be like the single most difficult decision ever I think.

Wait, that's not right.
Because I have dual citizenship.

I think you can't stay in most countries longer than a few months as tourist.
Considering Select is not studying in Korea ( or have a job) he probably is there on tourist visa and thus his stay is limited.

And a great deal of countries aren't. As someone who has a dual citizenship I can tell you that it is something that is highly useful.
And the idea that you have to 'drop' the coutnry you were born in when you move is pretty upsetting to me.

It's pretty standard. Singapore's the same, you cannot hold dual-citizenship, and if you give up your citizenship (especially to dodge army) you're not getting it back. Or coming back, in most cases.

On paper the list of protoss that didn´t make it looks stronger than the protoss that actually advanced T_T

Is it known who tester lost to? Or atleast what race.

SeleCT is not an american citizen (yet). He has a green card and his visa only allows him to say in korea for max 6 months

its usefulness or whether or not it makes you upset doesn't make it any more or less harsh.

Yea, which is why I am curious about who they ended up losing to (who did huk, tester and kiwikaki lose to?)...
Would be sad if we were down to like 2 or 3 protoss after the RO64 =\

JulyZerg qualified, Sen qualified...AWESOME! 
Hopefully HuK will stay in Korea for future attempts after GSL S3 finishes. I think hes got what it takes he just needs to settle down in Korea and focus.

Does your Korean government knows about it?
America allows dual citizenship.
I have friends who have dual citizenship for example Korean + American but the Korean government does not know about it because it's not like the American government inform the Korean counterparts that you have acquired a US citizenship
( i could be very wrong here)

How is that super rough, when ppl are dodging the military service in a country which is at the edge of war all the time? Seems perfectly reasonable, otherwise everyone would be doing that... But ppl always just want the benefits without the prize...

Wouldnt that apply to all GSL foreigners then? So that means Jinro, Idra and others who was there for first GSL would have to move in some 2-3 months?

Yes, the Korean government knows about it, since I had to register in.
