Following an unexpected 3-0 defeat by G2, analyst @ai_9684xtpa posted on X that GEN.G is facing calls from South Korean online communities for a special investigation into potential match-fixing upon their return to South Korea. In South Korea, esports is regulated by law, and players found guilty of manipulating matches for profit can face up to five years in prison or fines up to 50 million Korean won (approximately 270,000 RMB). Match-fixing is considered a criminal offense in the country. Whether the loss was due to match-fixing or simply poor performance will soon be determined.
