Sources: Daily Esports, RedBull
"Startale Bomber, farewell with Startale"

According to Daily Esports, the contract between Bomber and Startale will end on the 31st of December, 2013.

Startale Coach Won, Jong Wook says "I want to say thank you to Bomber who has devoted for the team. I wish him to achieve in the new environment, America. Even though he leaves, we will always cheer for him for he always does his best"

Bomber now looking for his new team. If a team is interested, they can contact to Bomber now. It was known that he is going to participate in the "Ladder Wildcard Qualifier" for the next WCS NA season.

Additionally, RedBull, long time sponsor of Startale, posted an interview with Bomber.

You have been a member of StarTale for quite some time and we know you have a very close relationship with the coaches and players, how hard of a decision was it to leave?

This was really tough choice but I only have one to two years left before I join the military so I want to focus more on traveling and competing in tournaments outside of Korea.

You have been on Team StarTale since 2010, what was your favorite memory from your time with them?

Living and practicing with all those guys was great, but the best memory I have was probably the GSTL Finals at the 2012 IPL event in Las Vegas.

So as of now you don’t have a team to play for, what are your plans?

I think it'd be pretty cool if I could have my own team, be a player and a coach.

Oh really? If you can pick two Koreans and two Foreigners to be on your team who would they be?

The top two foreigners in StarCraft II are NaNiwa and Scarlett so for sure I’d pick them. For Koreans I’d have to pick two of my old teammates, Life and Hack.

Looks like the new year is going to bring a lot of changes, especially with you moving to WCS North America.

Yes, I'm excited for 2014.

Bomber is on the verge of entering the military, is he not? For whoever picks him up, it would be a short term investment.

Talk about unexpected. I imagine he's got to have something planned already or this would be a humongous mistake.
My name is Mike, and statistically, yours is not.

Yeah, he said one more year on stream.

What other teams would pick him up? Since he's going to WCS NA.

If that's the case then I wouldn't be surprised if Alex gave him a call.

wow, unexpected.
My first guess would be a heavier personnal RedBull sponsorship for his last year before military.

I am pretty sure Bomber already has a deal in place with another team. He has been on Startale so long. Maybe team Redbull will form with Bomber at the core.

The harder it becomes, the more you should focus on the basics.

wonder how the situation with Bomber and Redbull is going to pan out. Strange for him to leave the team that they sponsor while they personally sponsor.
