The Korean National Assembly has passed new ethics rules forbidding assembly members from holding positions in sports organizations. Among the 24 MP's who were informed they could not continue their positions was Mr. Jeon Byeong-Heon, the current chairman of KeSPA.



Mr. Jeon has enjoyed popular support during his reign, improving the image of KeSPA in the eyes of many Korean esports fans.

You've got that backwards. Unless something happens with the appeals or protests, it sounds like he'll be stepping down from Kespa. You've got that backwards.

Did you actually read the OP? I'm sure they can find a capable full-time candidate who doesn't have a conflict of interest. The decision's got nothing to do with gaming and affects as many as 24 different sports. You might as well say they're downgrading badminton or baseball hugely if their figureheads happen to be in government office. Did you actually read the OP?

Yup, that's why teamliquid decided to close the competitive horse fighting sub forum instead of giving it its own portal like dota and hearthstone.
