Kim Olleh Joo-sungThe South Korean left Golden Guardians for his military service and after being discharged, Olle soared up the LoL rankings to secure a place with Norther American outfit Immortals.
"After being discharged, I had doubts about if I could come back," the 29-year-old told invenglobal.com.
"While others were playing in competitions and practicing every day, I planted trees and trained in the military. I want to overcome that gap and do well.
"I played ranked games like crazy and reached the top. Then, Immortals contacted me, and after we were done with the negotiations, I took my mom on a trip to Guam. Currently, the team has a specific direction, so I'm practicing new metas like Ashe support and Renata Glasc. I'm trying out various things.
"Through my military service, I learned a lot. I learned more about being one and looking after my comrades. I'd like to apply my military experience to my pro gaming career, to become a better person and teammate.
"I'm curious about how I can apply what I learned in the military to team life. I'm also curious about how much I've grown as a person. Those aspects are what I'm looking forward to the most."
