On November 19th, KT Rolster’s PawN announced via his Facebook that he will be a free agent. The following is a translation of the announcement.

Hello.

I became an FA due to my contract with KT expiring after 2 years with them.

I would like to thank Coach ZanDarc, Coach Noexcuse, Coach S0NSTAR, and every KT staff member.

Also, I would like to thank Deft, Mata, Score, Ucal, Kingen, Tae Gwon, Mia, Rush, and Smeb for taking care of me.

I regret that I didn’t get to play many times in tournaments due to personal reasons and so I am sincerely sorry to my coaches, the KT staff, and KT fans for leaving without delivering any good performance.

I don’t know which team I’ll be playing for next year, but please root for me.

I am working diligently to accomplish the deep, personal endeavors that I have for the 2019 season.

I will be sure to come back better than ever.

PawN is one of the most renowned mid laners in the LCK; he has been in the League of Legends esports scene since 2013 and has a long record of playing in various tournaments. He began his pro career as a part of MiG Blitz; he later joined Samsung Blue then switched to Samsung White, where he managed to win at the 2014 League of Legends World Championship. He joined EDG in 2014 where he made it to 1st place in the LPL with his team several times. He left his team to join KT Rolster, which has always managed to make it to 3rd place or above, even winning in the 2018 LCK Summer Split.

Whichever team PawN joined, his teams always managed to achieve fairly good results, which proves that PawN is a truly skilled player that contributes to his teams.
