'Aiming' Kim Ha-ram, who was removed from the starting roster due to internal conflict, is officially leaving kt Rolster. He will join KRX in a trade for 'Jiwoo' Jung Ji-woo.

kt Rolster announced on the 30th via their official social media that 'Aiming' Kim Ha-ram has been traded for KRX's 'Jiwoo' Jung Ji-woo. This news comes just one day after the team announced they had called up 'Fenrir' Park Gang-jun to replace 'Aiming' due to internal discord.

kt Rolster's move to replace their AD carry first came to light during the 2026 KeSPA Cup Final Stage 1 match against KRX on the 28th, where 'Fenrir' was fielded instead of 'Aiming' despite the rest of the starting roster remaining unchanged. The following day, ahead of their first LCK match, the team explicitly cited 'internal conflict' as the reason for the change.

In a press conference following their victory against T1, Head Coach Go Dong-bin reiterated the reason, stating, "There was internal conflict within the team. We tried our best to mediate, but we determined that the trust had been damaged to a point where normal training was no longer possible." He also revealed the urgency of the situation, adding, "We weren't even able to practice with 'Fenrir' in scrims. That’s how sudden this change was."

Meanwhile, 'Jiwoo' had joined KRX ahead of the 2026 season but spent time in the Challengers league after losing the starting spot to 'LazyFeel' during the LCK regular season. Given that Head Coach Go Dong-bin stated in an interview that he intends to keep 'Fenrir' as the permanent starter, 'Jiwoo' is expected to face a difficult path to securing a spot on the kt Rolster starting roster.
