During HongUn vs Luvsic in code A, Wolf said that HongUn is going to dedicate less time to the pro-gaming, since he decided to go to school; so i guess he left Prime because he won't be active on the scene

AFAIK HongUn doesn't live in the Prime house (whether he did before or not, iono), Check also did not live in the Prime house. Perhaps, Prime is trying to be stricter with their practice now and be something similar to Zenio-oGs situation. Where players who no longer wish to stay in the team house will be allowed to leave the team on good terms?


Yeah probably, I feel this answers all.

Thats a shame, but he also made no secret that he wont be doing pro-gaming forever and with the wrist injury, he only really play for his fans. Im quite sad because I really like Hongun, and with him gone Prime will be weaker, which is also a shame since I really like Prime too.

My HongUn moment was definitely in the GSTL when Teaja beat MKP. HongUn went out and proceeded to smash 3 Slayers Terrans. I remember in the GSL group selection sometime after HongUn said that he was so angry with Taeja for humiliating MKP that he got into beastmode and get revenge for his teamate. What a guy he is!

At any rate, really sad news if true.

Hmmm, I really like Hongun and prime. This makes me sad, especially if he is leaving for another team. But oh well I will have to continue cheering for him.

If its due to his CTS then its understandable. Sad because he was one of my fav players

They still have CreatorPrime, who seems to be a really promising Toss. And Byun is technically still in the practice house, so he definitely has good TvT practice.

If HongUn quits Starcraft 2 or something I will be really sad to not be able to see him play anymore. Extremely entertaining player.

Really wonder what's going on behind the scenes over at Prime, has to be something O_O


I think players just like the appeal of being on teams with more known players such as ST.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

Prime has MarineKing, and they made the GSTL Finals this season.

I think it's more likely a case of HongUn backing off because of his wrist problems.

We are losing one great protoss player, T_T
He is the kind of player make SC2 more innovative. So sad that he's having physical problem and have to let it go.
