HooN to begin coaching

Previous Jin Air Greenwings Stealths mid laner, Kim "HooN" Nam-hoon, did not have his contract renewed and will be coaching for Champions Spring, though his retirement is not official.

After Bok "Reapered" Han-gyu's retirement was revealed, Jin Air Greenwings provided a list of other players whose contracts would not be renewed.  This list included Yeon "ActScene" Hyeong-mo, Jin "Mystic" Sung-joon, and Kim "HooN" Nam-hoon of the Jin Air Greenwings Stealths.

Details on ActScene and Mystic's plans after the loss of their contracts have not been revealed, but it seems HooN will be moving into a coaching position.  He has not stated that he wants to end his career as a player, but he will be coaching for an undetermined team in Champions Spring.

"Nothing is confirmed where I go as coach"
—HooN, translation, 2014

 

Either way, HooN is not removing himself from the scene and may play in the future.  In the past, he has played for NaJin Shield and was known for his Ryze play and his performances in North American solo queue before Korean servers were launched.
