I remember those two switched positions during BW. KT had been performing poorly and coach Lee Ji Hoon was demoted to assistant coach for a while. Anyway, this time it looks like they both got promoted (LoL is still more popular than SC2, right?) | ||

Yes it is, and for the latter half of 2013 KT was the only team (in the world) that consistently was able to threaten SK Telecom. I'm sure they'd be willing to give a lot to dethrone them in the upcoming season, which might be a reason for the changes in the coaching department. | ||
