"'BboongBboong' Choi JongHyuk Leaves Prime to be a Free-Agent"

"BboongBboong," the man with the fun ID, Choi JongHyuk (24), has left the team Prime.
At the Mokdong Gom TV Studio on the 22nd of October at 6:10 PM, the Hot6ix GSL Season 5 A Up&Down Matches, he wore not his team uniform, but just a regular t-shirt. This is because JongHyuk has decided to leave prime to be a free agent.
Choi JongHyuk chose to be a free agent because he wanted to continue pursuing a different route of activities in progaming. He states, "For starters, it is absolutely not because there's a problem with the tea," leaving us only with our speculations.He continues to explain, "Because I want to continue progaming, I needed to switch my atmosphere and build up momentum,so I made this choice."
Choi JongHyuk will in the meantime practice from home, since leaving Prime. As he prepares for his upcomming leagues, he also plans to find a new team. Of course he will look at Korean teams, but he is also looking at foreign teams and wants to pick the team with the ideals closest to his gaming ideals.
Choi JongHyuk says, "I left prime with Park Waeshik the team manager'sconsent for me to leave. I have a lot of thinking and preparing to do so that in a new team I can become a new progamer. But in the meanwhile I want to thank Prime for all the help they've given me, including the team manager and workers who helped out."



Mmm, I tried to translate to the best of my abilities


Thanks, looks like a good ol' drama free parting of ways to me, that's good to hear at the very least.


yeah, can't take that for granted these days. But it leaves a huge hole in the prime roster and that really concerns me.

Trying to figure out what team could do good with another zerg player. I don't see B4 going to a foreign team though.

To be fair B4 hasn't been posting the results he had in the past, so i don't think Prime as a whole will suffer greatly because of it. Hell maybe it will give guys like Aria a chance to shine, finally.

Fnatic or TSL could use a good Z for once as well.

More Koreans smelling the foreign fruit, if the TiG article is correct.

Do they still think that all foreigners get paid salary and get flown to every tournament? I feel that if the ESF teams keep bleeding players like this, it won't be long before the only players left are KeSPA. Hopefully B4 switches to another Korean team, or at least a foreign team with a strong Korean presence (Fnatic, FXO etc.)

His main focus is to look at Korean teams, though he's not closed off to the idea of Foreign teams.

Maybe prime can pick up former SlayerS player Dark, he is up and coming.

Miya was also very good in practice, reportedly.


he was also a god of zerg but never wins any real matches.

Well that's quite a bit loss for Prime. He was a solid player in team leagues, and they are not a very large team. This brings them down to 0 known zerg players on their team... unless I have been missing good performances by the other zergs on prime. Hopefully the team can do well... they haven't seemed to be doing much recently.

B4 and I are really good friends. I had known he had some problems recently with motivation, but I didn't think he would have left prime.

I do think its for the best though. I hope to be trying to help him find a new team, and I will be active in making sure is a foreign team approaches him, that he doesn't get scammed or cheated into a contract.

I don't believe him, the tea must've tasted horrible.

NSH could really use a zerg, but I really doubt the stars will align for that to happen :/

Wait..wasnt he the team captain for PRIME? If not, who is?
He is a big enough name to get into a decent foreign team tbh, just not top top tier.
Bow down to the sons of Aiur...SKT1_Rain, CreatorPrime, ST_Parting, Liquid_Hero.
