Nah. MC has one look, and there it is.

TaeJa please don't retire!!! You even made me switch to Terran in Lings of Liberty!! Truly inspirational play, super consistent throughout his carrer... Just one or two more years, you have the time!

Thanks Wax for the interview, it's always awesome to get insight into the lives of the players.

Hopefully he doesn't quit. He was the first pro player i started following when i got into watching pro sc2. his play has always been spectacular and is one of the best terrans in the world along with being one of the consistent ones. Also its cool that he is such a simple guy, very straight forward.

Hopefully we get one more summer of taeja at least

Based TaeJa
I'm happy to hear pros and even korean pros talk about prizemoney and their future overall.
Players retiring is always sad for us, but I feel sometimes most of them have no idea what to do with their life and are just riding the tides of prog-aming day after day.

Reading that TaeJa has plans, even vague, for his life is a goof thing to see.

It's all good, but I've ended up only eating microwavable Korean food and ramen. I've had so much of it I could throw up. Victor's girlfriend comes over sometimes and makes us dinner. It's really good, and I'm thankful to her.

I haven't had a chance to see the Netherlands, and I don't really plan to. I think I will just keep playing.

They should really feed him better. No wonder hes kind of feeling unhealthy!


it's more an issue of him not liking western food

get hotbid to learn how to cook Korean food via youtube. The future of team liquid winning things depends on it!

I need to give Victor my recipe for 'Eggs with stuff in it.' It's quick to make, ridiculously healthy, quite filling and in a pinch you can make a huge batch and freeze/refrigerate it for later consumption. A healthy feeling Taeja would be scary considering how good unhealthy Taeja is.

it would probably do him some good to get out and about while he's living in Europe for a little while.

I imagined going from eating Korean food everyday to eating Northern European food and just shuddered. I might have nightmares tonight.

It would be such a shame if he retired. I'm still not recovered from the other Liquid retirements. Don't know if I can take any more.

He's gotta be one of the dullest stars in SC2. Hard to warm to him when he doesn't even want to go out and explore a foreign country, instead staying inside eating microwaved shit. The way he won the final then just sat there cleaning his glasses, without even smiling, was a real downer (saved only by Incontrol's humour).

Taeja so manner to Elfi! I'm sure no one has forgot that Dreamhack groupstage series where Taeja dropped 25 manner mules and ended up losing. Haha.

He seems pretty relaxed, sort of like Innovation, but a bit friendlier. Hope to see him do well at DH!
