Bacchus OnGameNet Starleague. Han Sang "Kwanro" Bong outmaneuvered both Han Dong "Casy" Wook and Kim Jun "GGplay" Yung in his first ever appearance in the OnGameNet Starleague. With today's triumphs, the Zerg player from CJ Entus reached the round of 16 of the energy drink-sponsored league.
Winning the league back in 2006, the Air Force ACE player was hyped up by Korean fans, but fell hard against Kwanro on the maps Holy World and Outsider. The former champion now holds a disappointing 22% winning record in 2009, only winning 5 out of 22 games.
Being the 2007 OnGameNet Starleague Season 1 champion, the picture of GGplay kissing the championship trophy was zoomed in a handful of times during the broadcast. However, the Woongjin Stars gunner could not stand up to Kwanro's zergling and mutalisk movement in the first game, and suffered from a bad 16-scourge-cloning in the second game which cost him the game.
