There might be a new trend catching on. After a long time in which Korean players searched desperately for foreign teams in search of better living and training conditions and perhaps even a little pay-rise we now see several Korean players leave their Foreign organization to go back to Korea. Perhaps homesickness seems a real e-Sports threat?
The next player to fall in the same category as the likes of viOLet and Sleep (and it's only suiting that both these players are Zerg as well) is Golden. Being a player which used to be in prestigious teams the likes of SlayerS and fOu the youngster,who turned 18 only several days ago, tried his luck on American team LighT. After a successful stay with the American organization during the last 6 or so months the Korean Zerg decided against staying with the team in favor of free agency. What could also have played a factor is that with Golden's increasingly good results came increasing costs for the small LighT organization, perhaps up until the point where also for them a player like Golden isn't sustainable.

In any case, Cho "Golden" Myung Hwan will now most likely return to Korea after residing in the US for the last half year, where he will look to join a Korean team once again. Will this be the return of SlayerS_Sleep and SlayerS_Golden? It sure seemed these players did enjoy their time in the team
before they left, so why not?
