League of Legends: LØS top laner Kim Dong-min (ID: Zest) fined at least 5,000 Brazilian Reais for making an obscene gesture..


Sheep Esports exclusively reported on Sunday that LØS top laner Kim Dong-min (ID: Zest) has been fined at least 5,000 Brazilian Reais for making an obscene gesture.


According to the report, the incident occurred during a CBLOL semifinal match in late September 2026.


After LØS narrowly defeated LOUD 3–2 to advance to the grand finals, an elated Zest raised both middle fingers at the opposing team's fans, it was an action that immediately triggered a violation of the league's official player code of conduct.


The report added that while the exact fine amount has not been disclosed, it is confirmed to be at least 5,000 Brazilian Reais, with the cost to be covered by his club, LØS.


Currently, there are no indications that Zest will face a suspension, meaning he remains eligible to compete in the grand finals scheduled for October 10.


In fact, this is not the first time such an incident has occurred in the CBLOL.


A few weeks ago, jungler Tatu was fined 15,000 Brazilian Reais after standing up and approaching STEPZ, appearing ready to confront him, following FURIA's victory over RED Canids.


Additionally, because it was his second instance of misconduct during the season, Tatu was suspended for one series.


The 22-year-old Zest hails from South Korea and began his professional League of Legends career in 2021, primarily playing as a top laner.


Zest has previously played for the Gen.G Aacademy, Dark Passage, GameWard, and Bushido Wildcats, joining LØS in January 2026.


Since joining LØS, he has helped the team secure a runner-up finish in CBLOL Split 1, fourth place in the CBLOL Cup, and a top-12 finish at the recently concluded E-Sport World Cup.
