this is what really happened that morning
so it was midnight, I was at one of my friend's room with bunch of other ppl , drinking like crazy since it was our last night, Nyoken(who came over to watch wcg from arizona didn't have a room to stay so i let him stay for couple of days) wanted to go to sleep, so we went back to my hotel room. my room was right next to flash/jaedong's room , so we stopped by and said bye or whatever and went back to the room. few seconds later jaedong/flash/kal comes over saying that they wanted to hang out more and stay up since they have to wake up early in the morning, but my real roommate was already sleeping so we had to go over to their room instead.
we were just talking crap, having fun etc etc and later on jaedong was like "let's go to spa, it opens at 6 am, since no one will be there it's gonna be ok" so we're like yea w/e maybe we can do that so we went down around at 6:10amish (nyoken had to go to sleep since he didn't wanna swim with his underwear on) , anyways we were relaxing in a spa..and all of sudden flash goes into pool saying that he loves to swim, and kal follows. and i just went in too (spa was kinda small for us to fit in) so we were swimming, we were swimming back and forth, and all of sudden Kal stops in the middle of a pool(3 meters depth) and started struggling himself, at one point we thought he was fking around but as the time goes by we're like wtf , is he actually serious? so i went there to save him, and all he had to do is just let me do the job but instead he kept pulling me down into the water, and i kept trying to fight him in the water so that i can grab him to the ground, but he kept pulling me down and i was drowning at the same time. flash comes over and finds out how serious the situation was and he tried to grab kal at the sametime, and now KAL pulls flash down too, and 3 of us started drowning in the water, and jaedong from a spa sees us and comes to us pulls out his hand towards me, and i had to let kal go since i, myself was already drank so much water, and couldn't do anything but drowning, jaedongw as like 10 cm away from me, i tried to grab it but i was so exhausted, but somehow i pulled up all my power to grab his hand, and he pulled me towards him and i survived, and at the same time flash gets kal towards the ground and saves him
it was so scary since we couldn't touch the ground with our feet and didn't know what to do when they're no one around us. it was a very serious situation, i honestly don't understand all the comments that has been made here, everyone loling rofling when this thing could have been worse :/
well i just summarized up very quick now, sorry if my post isn't too grammatically written but here u go

STX’s star player Kal almost drowned during his trip to the USA, but was luckily saved by his companions.
Kal went to LA to participate in WCG 2010 Grand Finals, and all games ended at 5am, and he, along with Flash, Jaedong, etc., went to the swimming pool in the hotel they were staying at.
Their flight is at 13:00, so they went to the pool at 6:00, when it just opened.
Kal didn’t expect the pool’s water to be so deep, and he fell into the pool. An American referee that went with them and the others all assumed Kal could swim, so they were unaware of the danger.
Only after 10 seconds of struggling did the others notice something was wrong, and the American referee said “he needs help,” so he jumped into the pool to try to help him, but apparently this referee’s swimming abilities weren’t great either, and was unable to help him.
At this time, Flash, who was swimming near by, swam towards Kal. Flash, who had learned to swim since a young age, told Kal to hold on to him, and then swam both of them back to the shore, and successfully rescued Kal. The American referee got help from Jaedong, who also didn’t know how to swim, from the shore. [T/N: wat?]
Even though no one was hurt, this was still a dangerous incident. Kal even thought “am I going to die like this?” He also said “Flash’s swimming skills, if slightly worse, I really don’t know what would’ve happened.”
After everything ended and they returned to South Korea, Kal announced this. “Flash is my savior, really thanks to him. I feel like I got new life. I will do my best to live my best now.”
