(Z)HyuN, along with a full team of LoL players, has left JAGW. He was the most recent recruit for the team having joined in March of this year.

Jin Air has stated that despite the end of Proleague they are committed to supporting their SC2 team and it will continue to run as normal.

Jin Air's current line-up:
(P)Trap
(Z)Rogue
(T)Maru
(P)sOs
(T)Cure
(P)Creator

Maybe he's going to retire? He's pretty old for a pro gamer

Likely. He has to do his military service.

Only Proleague team left to support sc2, and people are already making disparaging comments about a player like HyuN leaving? This is why this community is so disappointing... HyuN's almost 30 in a game that's physically and mentally demanding, it shouldnt come as a surprise to anyone HyuN has decided to leave; regardless of his intentions to retire or to join foreign team.

JAGW is still a strong team regardless though. They still have sOs, Maru and Rogue to form a strong core. And Creator/Cure isn't that bad either.

Afaik the didn't say they'd continue to support their roster, they just said they weren't disbanding (as opposed to Kespa's statement)

Yeah. Polt and Bomber already had to start theirs and they were all born in the same year (although Polt is half a year younger than HyuN).

I was wondering when HyuN was going into the military just yesterday given that he's 28 and guys like Polt and Bomber who are the same age as him have already enlisted. Sad to see him leave but it's a necessary evil.

Best of luck HyuN!

I'm glad Jin Air is making that commitment to keep them playing. I hope the scene turns around for these players.

In his interview at the Proleague the finals, he sounded doubtful about continuing SC2 for another year. He's probably going to do his military service now.

Good luck in the future, HyuN! Thanks for all the good games. I still occasionally wear that Team ROCCAT cap.
Stopped watching ESL content in 2022 when the company was acquired by Savvy Gaming Group. Also object to sponsorships by the U.S. Air Force. Thanks for the lively discussions about sportswashing. StarCraft II is not for me anymore.

I felt HyuN was a real positive influence to JAG - the team was floundering until he was added to the roster, after which it became a Proleague powerhouse. HyuN seems to have that effect wherever he goes, everyone remembers him fondly.

I would like to have a full month of browsing TL without seeing new threads "player X leaves team Y" on the Sc2 sections, but I guess by now that's unavoidable

Hope this is for military service reasons, best of luck to HyuN
