Lunatic-Hai fold due to Military Service

ImageAfter three years the Korean team Lunatic-Hai folds due to several players having to serve the military service. Also the team did not find enough sponsors due to Korea focusing too much on Starcraft according to a statement.



MYMYM reports that Young-Mo 'enemy' Ahn is joining the Korean military as well as MinWoo 'cliper' Choi and Min-Soo 'glow' Kim will start to do so in July 2009. This would leave the team with only two players but still no sponsors so the organisation is now disbanding.

In a statement Lunatic-Hai released they also blame the Korean market to focus too much on Starcraft and it would also not be profitable enough in the future. The Korean scene is already small and now lost another big name basically leaving only WeMade FOX and the rising team of SEOULJINHWA to carry the scene for now.
