According to Kookmin Ilbo’s coverage on the 18th, Park Jae-hyuk, who was a free agent, chose Gen.G, which is also his former team, as his next destination. Last month, he terminated his contract with Jingdong Gaming (JDG) early and entered the free agent market early. He reportedly received multiple love calls, but decided to return to his former team.

The two sides met again after two years. Gen.G, which finished the 2024 season schedule after being eliminated in the semifinals of the LoL World Championship, soon began rebuilding its squad. The franchise star was asked if he would like to return. Negotiations gained momentum in early November, and a reunion soon became visible. One official said, “I know that Jaehyuk Park had the thought that ‘If I were to return to the LCK, the only option would be Gen.G.’”
Gen.G said, “We have nothing to say” regarding Park Jae-hyuk’s return.
