LNG mid laner Kim "Doinb" Tae-sang has shared that he has received multiple fines over the past years. The reason? Leaking information regarding player transfers and information about the LPL. Since 2019, Doinb estimates his total bill amounts to a sum of "hundreds of thousands of RMB." 100,000 RMB roughly equates to €14,000, or $15,000 USD.

The former world champion has become a prime source of leaked information from the Chinese League of Legends scene, often casually chatting about unannounced roster moves on his stream. Six months ago, Doinb shared that jungler Kim "clid" Tae-min would join Doinb's former team FPX, adding, "He doesn't have any other options." The signing was confirmed by FPX a month later.

Doinb's stream of information has kept on going steadily in 2022. Two months ago, he revealed that PSG Talon mid laner Huang "Maple" Yi-Tang would depart his team and join a team in the LCS. In May, TSM announced Maple as their new mid laner. Just last week, Doinb broke the news that RNG top laner Chen "Bin" Ze-Bin and BLG top laner Chen "Breathe" Chen would be swapping teams — a move confirmed mere hours later.

The information shared by Doinb doesn't stop at just roster leaks, however. He also discussed scrim results ahead of the 2022 Mid-Season Invitational, informing the public that his team, LNG, was struggling heavily in scrims against LCK champions T1. According to Doinb, Victory Five, who were top contenders in the LPL Spring Split, did not have much luck against T1 either.

There have also been a few cases of Doinb sharing LPL-specific information ahead of time. He shared the starting date for the 2022 LPL Summer Split before the official announcement was made. Doinb said that he was fined 50,000 RMB (roughly €7,000) for the comments. In May, Doinb stated, his bill came to a total of 60,000 RMB (€8,400).
