"Hello,
Our Jung Ho left our side in the early morning today. To all of our fans, who pooled their blood credits and funds, to those who donated blood lately, thank you for always caring and cheering him on.
Please pray for Jung Ho so that he be bright, happy, and healthy on the other side.
Thank you" - Statement from KT Rolster

For those who have followed his battle with Luekemia today was a sad day as KT Rolster announced that 24 year old Woo Jung Ho had lost his battle with his illness.

He was diagnosed with Luekemia in 2011 and had recently sent a message to his fans that he was recovering and being treated. The community is still in shock with the sudden loss of one of their heroes.

Very sad news :<
I remember TL Put up the badge next to the horeses when he first went to hospital for it.
Hope they put it up again.
Would love to see some charity streams to raise money for Leukaemia from notable streamers.

Big loss, he will be sorely missed D:

[SFTAElessar]

I am a HUGEEEEEEEEE SC FAN, HOW COULD U SAY SUCH A THING CHADMAN :O

[AuXCoolpuff]

dang

thats crazy D;

[AxSGRiM]

Although I wasn't part of the BW/SC scene at all since I am still quite young, I was able to see the effort people from the TL community did to try and make him cheer up and stay strong. If so many people were so motivated to take action I really think Violet must have been an extremely awesome person. I know that he was also an extremely talented protoss player, protoss ace of KT and I hope he Rests In Peace.

Team Liquid has a ribbon with KT.Violet on it's banner

P.S Anyone that spends 12 hours a day training in this game must very much like the game and I would call them a fan. Pro football players are still fans of football.
