If there’s one thing that can be said about the bubbly, compassionate and inspirational competitor that is Song “Rookie” Eui-jin, it’s this: he’s a fighter.
At so many points in his career, he could’ve given up and gone home. People told him he should give up. But he didn’t. He took the road less traveled, and it made all the difference.
But that’s what’s made Rookie such an inspiration to so many people: his stubbornness. His ability to commit, to stick things out. To persevere.
And this is his story.

With Clearlove leaving his player carrer behind he deserves his video. One of the best stories from zero to hero to being the most hated player to being a hero again.
I like how Faker's basically a unit of measurement for understanding just how exceptional a pro is xD
Why is everyone comparing to faker. Pawn Rookie caps chovy ucal bjerg and others.
Awh yes another 30min doc.
Make the story of the shy
Love the Frost in the description!
Well, guess I’m an IG fan now. These videos are so amazing, I’ve never played LOL but thanks to all these stories I’m emotionally invested in a bunch of teams and players which makes watching it so much fun! Thank you
Please do a redo of The Story of Faker. Not only would this video be
much better quality wise but his story has gone upwards since and
is more interesting now than ever
THE STORY OF sOAZ PLEASE
Any interest in investigating the League Acadamy for LPL, YM, which produced Ning, Ming, Kinght, Killua, XLB, Tian and more but never entered LPL themselves?
The story of scump
The story of Mang0
The story of OpTic
The story of eSports
Anyone of these please
Also, The Shy and IG have never explained the truth of his injury! Plz do not spread these unconfirmed informations!
This is a great video! Rookie is a professional player who deserves all the praise.
But this video mentions about The Shy's hand injury was due to cooking. That is wrong!!!! His hand injury almost took him out of the game and greatly affected his life.
Cooking won't hurt your hand so much that you can't move it, right?
Sorry，that‘s a great video absolutely，but The Shy‘s hand was not caused by cooking, and iG have not given an explanation for his injury yet. So this message in this video is not true.
There wasn’t an official statement regarding how theshy was injured… and consider he will be exempt from military service cuz of the injury.. it’s impossible that it was due to cooking… unless he was aiming direct to his own arm while chopping…
Rookie is just a dude! A credit to his team and to League as a whole. So nice and so humble.
The shy Please ！
next content the shy please!!
Do one on theshy!!!
Its a just a "win atleast 2 clashes" and its gone. Like wtf?!
League's Esports are boring (obviously)
As a Chinese myself I can't stress enough of how much Rookie was appreciated by Chinese players. He's seen as a national hero despite being a Korean.
It's crazy how similar Rookie and Doinb are. They are both kind, hardworking and consistent. I guess that's what it takes to make a champion.
this is why i am subscribed.
I miss Nalra…..
Don't like that statement"even they was placed in the easiest group…"
So the best Chinese player is Korean. LOL
If you didn’t cry at worlds 2018 then you have no heart.
32:58 Every single video has to mention Faker in your videos. Specifically in a negative way lmfao.
