So yeah, this seems to contradict that interview, unless there was a mistranslation somewhere.

Indeed ! This could be, since it is Red bull's article (i.e. and not Startale's). Interesting ! I'd love that he postpone that until 2015 ! | ||

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=434388 Direct quote from the man himself. I hope that a lot of fans come to Blizzcon and cheer at the games. Now that we're getting to the end of the year, I want to get a good result and return home to Korea triumphant. I'm planning to go to the military in 2015 or 2016, so I don't have much time left as a pro-gamer. Because of that, I think that I'm approaching my tournaments differently to other players. My goal is to finish this year with a win, and then make at least Top 8 at the global finals next year. I think that you'll see me at a lot of foreign tournaments next year. | ||

And as far as infantry goes, professional career soldiers are likely worth 10 times their number of amatuers. Why does South Korea even bother with a draft? Because SK fears relying on its professional army might not be enough in case of a conflict ? :/ I would not judge their military policies, as I reaaaaaally wouldn't pretend to know what it is to be in that kind of situation with an openly hostile country right at your door. | ||

That's a nice thing to say for a country with the budget of the US and not the world's largest army (by soldiers) at your borders. But I guess we have to wait a bit until the dust settles. btw: wintex are you prepared for your 2 year distant relationship? | ||
