Reddit Link Would be great if someone knows where Coach Kang posted and can translate what it says. Reddit user dokdo812 gave a rough translation: Rough translation: Hello. This is Kang Dong Hoon from IM. While it is true that Mvp is considering his future paths, it is not true that he retired. I'm still talking a lot with Mvp. We're pleased to see this much support from a lot of people still. We ask you to continue your interest and support. (Mvp is laughing that he got "force-retired"~ haha)

(It's obvious that the amount of money he made in 2014 is not enough to keep him fed all the way till now He made enough to be middle class for like ten years, what are you talking about. | ||

With $350k, if he invests it properly and use it appropriately it should last him a lot of time once he steps out of the SC2 world and into the real world. However didn't he say he was using his prize money to help his family out because his family was very poor? I recall reading something about this a long time ago.

If he's feeling better or had surgery done to help him and really wants to play then I welcome him back. I just want him to stream occasionally like he did on Azubu. Get a webcam, interact with fans online, stream an hour or two each day and you got yourself some extra income as well as fun with fans. | ||

According to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development the median salary in South Korea in 2012 was $36 thousand US a year. So yes, he would be a middle Korean with $350k winnings, except he would have the advantage of having it front loaded. | ||
