T1’s major shareholders, SK Square and Comcast Spectacor, recently convened a board meeting where they shared a shortlist of CEO candidates and flagged the exclusive CAA Singapore agency deal as a serious governance issue. The arrangement, tied to Marsh’s prior Comcast ties, has drawn scrutiny after a Sports Seoul investigation revealed heavy routing of sponsorships through the agency alongside a reported 75% turnover in T1’s partnerships team and fan-led protest trucks outside headquarters. These developments follow an earlier reported contract extension to 2029 that appears not to have been finalized, leaving the organization effectively in a leadership vacuum since the June 30, 2026, extension lapsed. Trader pricing at 59% for an exit by year-end reflects the active succession talks and mounting internal-external pressure on the current regime ahead of the LCK postseason window.
