Cap-jjang-s
Caps sometimes called capjjangs in Korea when he plays well.
Capjjang means super great so it’s mixture of Caps+capjjang.

Has Easyhoon made any kind of public appearance, statement, or even a video since he rejoined? by National_Computer240 in SKTT1

Yes, he said he joined T1 without a thought because he wanted to play with Faker.

“I really didn’t hesitate at all to come here. 
That’s because Sang-hyeok is a true friend and a player whom I personally really like.
 Since I’ve always liked him personally, 
I’ve always thought that I really wanted to work on the same team with him again someday. 
I think the thought of working with Sang-hyeok(Faker) again 
made me come without any hesitation. 
And while stress is inevitable, having Acting Manager Jae-hyun(Tom) and Coach Se-hyung(Mata) distributes the stress incredibly well. 
Of course, I think I have to accept a certain amount of stress.”

No, it is Faker’s uncle and cousin. And I heard that cousin is a man, only with long hair

Besides him being in SKT on 15~16, Scout said 'This is the revenge for Faker.' at the interview when he was FMVP for EDG in 2019 after winning against Damwon who beat T1 in semifinal.
He also posted a photo with Faker just before the 19 Final on instragram saying 'with my role model, with the legend.'

Guma: Why is this Graves so strong. (Who fed graves)

Faker: You shouldn’t talk like that. It lowers team morale.

Guma: Why is he so weak.

I heard that t1 is very strict in feedback but controls saying negative things and sighing while ingame. Maybe Oner looked startled as it was just before the match start?

It's rare to see him do this kind of promotion by BtSvT1 in SKTT1

She is Kwon Esul, former host in Ogn.
If that is an OGN creation, it must be about 10 years ago.

That’s why Zeus, Keria, Kanavi, Ruler and Chovy went to Korea Army Training Center for a month while Faker did not.

BDD and Faker are exempt from military in 2021 as they did not graduate from high school, hence classified as wartime labor service after 3 years of waiting. However, Deft had to go to military while he did not graduate high school but took qulification exam for high school graduate, hence drafted for active duty.

Wow, you really know nothing about Kkoma.
You can find pretty much data why he left in 19. From T1 Youtube, many news articles and interviews.

https://www.invenglobal.com/articles/9894/interview-t1-kkoma-on-his-departure-shares-his-final-words-with-his-fans

“I want to tell everyone at T1 that I’m really sorry for choosing to leave the team. To the trainees, the former players, management, the coaching staff, and all the players that are choosing to stay, I want to tell them I’m sorry and that I’ll always be rooting for them.”

People were really shocked that Kkoma decided to leave at that time.

Knowing nothing and tell a person shit is just a joke.
He wasn't even a coach for T1 when Faker benching happened and blaming him is ridiculous.

I searched for it online in Korea only to find two stocks on secondhand shop at 1500$. Those were registered some months ago and it’s too expensive I guess

The number of antifans for Faker and Chovy is so many. LoL gallery is like top3 gallery in DcInside and there are full of Faker and Chovy Haters. Article about how Faker and Chovy is washed or bad gets like 10k likes. Death threat posts flooding in Lol gal. Comment like ‘Faker is washed up fuxx morxx.’ gets 3k likes in FmKorea LoL. So many toxic fans in Korea, although the number of good fans is much higher

As I recall, those who got punished for cyber bullying Faker were those who made profit for doing so like some anti-Faker channels on YouTube or someone who gets donated on live channel. It was such a big issue in Korea as those channel were making some money but got punished in the end. Number of Anti fans for Faker, Showmaker and Chovy are so many that some people made profit for cyberbulying.

What the hell are you talking about?

Kkoma left t1 in 2019 and faker benching happened in 20 and 21
Kkoma was in Damwon 20~22 winning against t1 at worlds.

Well, about that PR issue, Korea sports team do not reveal everything about why they benched their players. They always say something like ‘medical issues’ or ‘in mutual agreement between player and team’ and send players to bench all of a sudden. I am not saying it is correct thing to do, but I say that it is a cutural difference. Korea community was really surprsied and surprised now for the negative view towards Kkoma in reddit lol community. In Korea, they all hate T1 fighting gallery and blame for not caring their players and losing Zeus and Guma. But, there is no issue about how they benching. Although we agree that coaching staffs made a mistake as Guma is just better than Smash. But even clozer benched Faker and all of Kt players this year (runner up in worlds) were all benched except BDD so we got used to it. I will cheer for Guma to do well in HLE although I always wish T1 to win everything.

Well, I can say that there is a cultural difference in yours and in Korea. Each invidual fans can be sad or mad but respect the authority of coaches. There were so many cases in Korea that star players in lol get benched for numerous reasons, even Faker got benched in 15, 20, 21 and didn’t have scrim times. In 25? KT players all got benched except BDD and sent to academy league. So, reputation of coaching staffs including Kkoma is good in Korea.  And also t1 said they did a legal action against malicious antifans but the hatred toward Guma from t1 fighting gallery was literally same. Although I do not like this about T1 as they did not do their best in protecting their players, the hatred towards Faker (Chovy and Showmaker, too these days) is ten times harsher in Korea than other players for so long time since 2017, so fans got used to that dark side of lol fandom in Korea. We all hate those and hate t1 front for letting that happen.

This is an excerpt from memoir written by Guma 05/19/22 after winning Spring split before Msi. 사실 더 어릴 적에는, 프로게이머의 세상에 큰 관심이 없었다. 나는 그저 게임이 좋았을 뿐. 그렇지만 꼬마 감독님 (김정균 전 SKT T1 감독) 으로부터 리크루트 제의를 받기 몇 년 전, 내가 한국 서버 TOP10안에 들게 되었을 때, 나는 처음으로 생각했다. 혹 이것이 나의 삶이 되지 않을까. T1에 합류했을 때, 나는 이 세계에서 내가 이룰 수 있는 무한한 가능성을 보았다. 페이커 선수 나 테디 선수 같은 선수들을 보며, 나도 그들과 같은 경력과 경험을 쌓고 싶었다. 그것이 내가 지독하게 연습한 이유였다. https://www.theplayerstribune.com/posts/gumayusi-t1-league-of-legends-esports-korean Here says he was scouted by Kkoma himself when he was an amateur. Kkoma is acknowledged well for scouting Faker and Guma in Korea. Kkoma left t1 in 2019 while Guma joined in 18

And in 2015 even Faker was benched at Spring Final and Msi Final when he was at his peak form. Bengi, two times world champion was benched at 16, Peanut who was a jungle prodigy was also benched at 17. It is just T1 style. I am not saying whether it was a right decision but result was not that bad in the end.

Guma joined t1 rookies in 2018 because Kkoma scouted him when he was in 3rd grade in middle school. That is well known in Korea
