HyuN is too old to play in foreign offline events. He hasn't done his military service yet, after all. Can't have him disappear in foreignland.


Now, now. Let's not be all reasonable when we have WCS to bash! WCS made Flash retire you know!

Might be him slowly transitioning into retirement, or maybe he's looking for a KeSPA or another foreign team. The Goberman's still got fight in him even though he's old and probably considering military service very soon.

A little off, yet still on topic
JD's contract will expire soon [he said in february]

Where do you think he'll go? I mean, he wants to play in korea....Will he join a Kespa team?

JD's game been off for a long time. Maybe lack of practice who knows. If I were him I'd hit that foreigner circuit. Not sure he'll survive in Korea.

Also, he plays some Heroes of the Storm if I recall it correctly. That doesn't help him either, I think...

Out of curiosity, how many years those koreans have to chose when they`ll do the military?

Seems pretty easy, to an extent, to postpone it until you fell like you should.

Somewhere I heard that the limit is 27 years. After that you must do it.

If he's going to KeSPA, I think he'd fit really well in Samsung. (Plus I think he could grab me some FPL points since I picked Samsung.)

hmmm, the other day Creator thanked JD for practicing with him, so maybe JD might actually come back to JinAir?
anyway, I think Hyun to Afreeca is very reasonable

Guess by end of the year, other than hydra, there won'the be any korean players who play for a western team, considering polt also is almost too old to delay his duty any more? There are teams like DP or MY I but I don't see any reason they will keep Korean players on their list as therected are few westerb tournaments they can participate.

Best of luck to Hyun where decides to go. Maybe he'll go to CJ since he was practicing with them last year? But Afreeca could use him.

No more Koreans on foreign teams in 2016, didn't really anticipate this before but seems natural and inevitable now that it's happeningX_X

What do you mean too old? There's an age limit? I'm confused...

Guess this was kinda expected to happen as he already announced after HSC that he'd play in Korea from now on. Hope he finds a good team and kicks some ass before he'll have to join the military eventually. l'll miss meeting him on foreign events, he's always such a nice and fun guy to talk to. <3

If you are at certain age and have not done a military service yet, you are not allowed to travel outside of the country. This is because South Korea is still at war with North Korea (literally since only cease fire agreement was made at the end of the Korean War) so men have to undergo a conscription before they are too old to serve as soldiers. Some people tried to escape the conscription process by travelling to other countries when they are near the age limit so the government put an age limit on that.
