Lunatic-Hai suspends two Overwatch players after having relationships with female fans

South Korean Overwatch team Lunatic-Hai has suspended both Geum "dean" Dong-geun and Lee "Leetaejun" Tae-jun for developing online relationships with female fans. 

The two were starting members in the team, but have been benched for the rest of the OGN Apex Season Two competition after the discovery was made by the organisation. The punishment comes from the organisation itself and not any of the sports governing bodies. 

The two players are accused of speaking to multiple female fans online and exchanging pictures and text messages with them. Further details have not been released. 

Fortuantly for Lunatic-Hai the team just expanded to be an eight man roster, so they will not need to bring in any new players as substitutes Lee "Whoru" Seung Joon and Kim "zunba" Joon Hyuk will play in their place.
