It happened on the first day of my trip to Korea in 2017. I had an interview to do before the match that ran long so I didn't show up at the FreecUP stupio until partway through the first game. About half way through game two the people at Afreeca grabbed me so I could interview GuMiho for TL so I had to stop watching to go upstairs. I didn't know what was going on in the Classic soO match, but about 30 minutes later soO shows up having already match. What a first Code S experience.

I watched a few of his better games on Youtube though and agree he's become a beast.

Shuffleblade Sweden1903 Posts September 21 2020 09:10 GMT #30 I saw it live when soO showed what kind of person he was after losing to Gumiho, I have never felt someones actual earnest personality come through a 2D screen as clearly as it did then. I also cried seeing him conquer IEM world championship, more than anything the players he defeated to win it made it even more amazing. SoO ZvZ coming back to knock out Serral before taking the gold medal was just like a dream come true.

t5Fab 183 Posts September 21 2020 10:47 GMT #31 I shed a tear everytime I watch that IEM winner's interview. Such a cathartic moment. A great story of a great player. Godspeed, soO!

KeksX Germany3634 Posts September 21 2020 10:56 GMT #32 Had to log back in to get in here. soO is probably my favourite player of all time. Even though I might not be watching as much SC2 as before, I still followed him.

lechatnoir 391 Posts September 21 2020 19:34 GMT #35 Who doesn't love soO? We'll miss him but the memory of him finally becoming the champion he deserved to be will last. Let's hope he comes back eventually and that his service is uneventful.

dUTtrOACh Canada2339 Posts September 22 2020 00:08 GMT #36 What a legend. Hope he does come back at some point, but he's already a hall-of-famer.

kajtarp Hungary485 Posts September 22 2020 12:06 GMT #37 If i remember correctly, he said a few times in the past, that after military he might join Brood War.

JimmonRH 13 Posts September 23 2020 19:02 GMT #38 I fucking love you SoO and you will absolutely be missed. Good luck, and god speed brother.
