One of the things people asked me the most when I was in the army was how I became a pro gamer. What content besides LoL are you preparing? One way you could repay the fans for their love is to give them joy through your streaming. The watch I wore in the army was also given to me by a fan. The clothes I’m wearing today are the ones that fans gave me. I can’t always receive, I feel thankful for the support and I want to spread positive vibes to others. Thanks to the fans, I’m mostly on the receiving end, so I feel that I need to give more. Without them, I wouldn’t have had the motivation to do it. They are the only reason I’m able to be an active streamer. There are fans that like me, and there are fans that have liked me for a very long time. Especially now that I’ve been to the army. It’s kind of cliche to say thank you to the fans in an interview, but I really mean it. I was thankful that there still were fans that remembered me even though I had been off for a long time.

There were only 50 champions, Ashe had extra gold on her E skill… I used to be really good back then, you know? Even if we think, “How did we play with those graphics?” There’s that emotion and fun of that time. Rather than going back to being a player, I think it would be interesting to have an event that features “LoL Classic”, to bring back old memories. When you were watching the LCK, did you think you wanted to go back to when you were a player? Even so, they did well and reached the playoffs, so I had fun watching them. DRX is kind of my former team, and they had completely rebuilt the team. I mostly tried to watch most of Faker’s and T1’s games and really enjoyed watching DRX play. LCK starts at 5 p.m., so I wasn’t able to watch all the games. There were other soldiers that liked games, so we watched together. Boy, has time flown!ĭid you watch the LCK while you were there? Coco, Chaser, Pure… We all played together in the LCK. Since I had a lot of spare time there, I got book recommendations from him.Īs for other pro players that I was close to, they are all in the army. When I was in the army, he sent a message to wish me a happy birthday. Faker also sends messages on special occasions or big holidays. So I bought him some skin-repair snail cream. He had kind of a mini fan meet in our troop and signed many autographs. MadLife was the only one that visited me in the army. Were there any old colleagues that came to visit you while you were in the army? I think I mostly played ADCs that could carry. By showing off the prowess of a former pro player while keeping the opponent superior happy, I made my team win all the games.

Obviously, some of my superiors asked me to play LoL together so we went to a PC cafe. When I was assigned, it was before COVID-19, so we were able to go out from time to time. Nowadays, we could visit the Post Exchange in the training center. Some of them got my autograph just because others were. When I was in the recruit training center, one of the trainees asked me, “By any chance, are you Cpt Jack?” and I answered shyly, “Yes, I am.” People asked for my autograph too. A lot of them were about 5-6 years younger than me and they remembered me from when I was active as a player. There were many people that recognized me.

I could say that I started my professional career in Inven, so I wanted to say “Hi” here first, now that I’m back. I can’t be a pro player anymore so I need to survive and find my own career. I thought I would feel extremely happy, but it wasn’t that simple. You’ve finally completed your military service.

Cpt Jack was just as I remember him, delightfully smiling, as we got straight into our conversation. I concurred, so I contacted him as soon as he got out. I’ve heard people in the scene say that it felt like a really long time since he joined the army. Old LCK fans will be delighted to know that Kang “Cpt Jack” Hyung-woo has finally completed his military service. Maybe because of that, I feel really glad when I hear good news about the first-generation pro players. Sometimes, you don’t even know what they’re doing nowadays. The players that roam the Rift in the LCK are very young and the legends we remember have become coaches or streamers.
