GuMiho is a name synonymous with resilience and brilliance in the StarCraft 2 world. Born on August 4, 1992, the South Korean prodigy first burst onto the scene in the 2010 GSL Open Season 3, remarkably as the only Random player to ever compete in a GSL individual event. Though his initial forays were short-lived, GuMiho quickly transitioned to Terran, showcasing a natural talent that would soon establish him as a formidable force.
His career highlights include a memorable semifinal run in the 2012 GSL Season 1 and an unforgettable all-kill performance in the 2012 Global StarCraft II Team League Season 2 finals for FXO against the formidable SlayerS-EG lineup. This legendary feat, where he single-handedly defeated MMA, Min, CoCa, Ryung, and Puzzle in succession, cemented his reputation as a clutch player capable of extraordinary feats under pressure.

Interestingly, GuMiho is also known for his engaging presence within the English-speaking StarCraft community and holds the unique distinction of being nicknamed “Towel Terran” by commentator Artosis due to his use of a towel during matches to manage hyperhidrosis.
After fulfilling his mandatory military service, GuMiho made a swift return to the professional StarCraft 2 scene, demonstrating his unwavering passion for the game. Now, he embarks on a new chapter with S8UL Esports, ready to bring his strategic prowess and commanding Terran play to a new audience and a new competitive landscape.
