Longzhu Gaming will continue to field Kim "PraY" Jong-in, Kang "GorillA" Beon-hyeon and Kim "Khan" Dong-ha through the 2018 season, the organization announced on Facebook Tuesday.

Longzhu still has Kwak "BDD" Bo-sung, Moon "Cuzz" Woo-chan and substitute Kim "Rascal" Kwang-hee under contract, meaning they could field their 2017 starting roster in 2018.

Longzhu Gaming were considered one of the strongest Korean LoL teams this season. The team won the 2017 LCK Summer Split, and while they were considered favorites to win the World Championship, they failed to make it past the quarterfinals after taking a 3-0 loss to eventual champions Samsung Galaxy.

Longzhu signed both PraY and Gorilla in 2016, after the bot lane duo left the ROX Tigers. Khan joined Longzhu in May, after leaving the Qiao Gu Reapers in China.

According to the Facebook post, Longzhu has also terminated their contracts with their coach, Jung-su Kim, mid lane substitute Yoon "Justice" Seok-joon, substitute AD carry Lee "Lucy" Woo-jin and substitute support Jang "Zzus" Jun-su.
