Lee Jae-Dong, alias n.Die_Jaedong (generally known as Jaedong or JD for short), (born January 9, 1990) is a South Korean professional StarCraft player representing team Hwaseung Oz. He is one of five players to break the 2300 barrier in the TeamLiquid.net ELO rankings[1] and is currently ranked first in the world by the Korean E-Sports Association[2] and Second by ELO ranking.[5]. He is one of two players to achieve a winning percentage above 66% with a career record of 257 wins and 117 losses (68.72%).[3] In August 22, 2009, he became the third player to win the prestigious "Golden Mouse" award for winning three OSL titles, and the second since Lim Yo-Hwan to win two OSL titles back-to-back.

In 2008 Lee was awarded the KeSPA "Player of the Year", "Best Winning Percentage", and "Best Zerg" awards.[4]

In 2009 Lee printed his hand onto a piece of clay to "immortalize" him. This achievement was made with 100 Proleague wins. Lee did this alongside 'Reach' [5].

Free Agency in 2009

After KESPA revised the rules regulating Free Agency, Hwaseung Oz offered Lee an offer of 140,000,000 won (112,420 USD) a year to renew his contract.[6][7] During the bid period, Lee expressed interest in remaining within Hwaseung Oz because of the friendships he had forged over the past three years on the team.[8]

Although his father publicly stated in interviews that retirement was a possibility,[9] Lee renegotiated his contract with Hwaesung Oz and has confirmed that he will play for the team in the upcoming Proleague season.[10]
